Typical Challenges
Making the most efficient and sustainable use of raw materials to save on finite resources – and on costs.
Avoiding the use of resources obtained through human rights abuses like displacing indigenous people or using forced labour.
Replacing disposable materials with renewable resources to reduce environmental degradation and resource depletion.
Designing and producing products and packaging which use resources efficiently and can be recycled.
Shrinking resources demand more sustainable usage
The planet today is facing unprecedented, interconnected environmental challenges in areas including climate change, water, energy, biodiversity, and agriculture. With businesses relying on natural resources directly and via supply chains, new corporate efforts are needed to address environmental responsibilities, value natural capital, and better understand the linkages between resources.
Your employees, partners, suppliers and key stakeholders know the answers and are part of the solution. Speeki is focused on gathering that information from these key stakeholders and feeding that data into your system to leverage it to create value.
Engage your employees in resource conservation
Managing resources effectively to minimise resource usage demands the appropriate mindset from every resource user in your business – which means everyone. Use Speeki Surveys and Conversations to reach out to employees, disseminate resource management policies, and identify related training needs. Secure declarations of employee commitment through Declare and Disclose, and encourage reports on wasteful resource usage via Speeki Reports.
Monitor supplier practices to ensure ethical and sustainable sourcing
Speeki Signals and Insights tools can help you evaluate how your suppliers are obtaining the materials you purchase from them. Communicate with them through Speeki Conversations and Speeki Surveys to win their support. Gain insight into their policies and pick up on subtle indications of undesirable actions they may seek to conceal, like deforestation or the use of child labour. Use Speeki Declare and Disclose to obtain supplier declarations of compliance with your ESG requirements.
Assure investors of efficient resource usage
Monitor investor perceptions of your company through Speeki Signals, and use Speeki Messaging tools to communicate with investors. Illustrate through Ratings and Certifications that your sustainable resource usage is controlling costs and contributing to your overall business sustainability.
