Supply Chains & Responsible Procurement
Supply chains are where environmental and social risk becomes operational reality. From climate exposure and resource volatility to labour practices and regulatory scrutiny, value chains are increasingly central to corporate resilience.
At TCC, we support organisations to strengthen oversight, reduce exposure, and embed responsibility across their supply networks — aligning procurement strategy with risk management and regulatory expectations.
Why it matters?
Supply chains are no longer a peripheral operational concern — they are central to enterprise risk, regulatory compliance, and stakeholder trust.
Organisations that embed structured oversight, due diligence, and resilience planning into procurement systems build durable competitive advantage. Those that do not accumulate hidden exposure.
At TCC, we approach supply chains with discipline — aligning operational realities with governance expectations and long-term transition strategy.
Supply Chain Risk Mapping
Effective management begins with visibility.
We support organisations to:
Map supply chain structures and critical dependencies
Identify environmental and social risk hotspots
Assess exposure to climate, labour, and geopolitical risk
Prioritise suppliers based on risk severity and likelihood
Structured risk mapping enables informed decision-making — not reactive crisis management.
Human Rights & Environmental Due Diligence
Mandatory due diligence frameworks are reshaping procurement governance.
We help companies to:
Integrate human rights and environmental due diligence into procurement processes
Develop supplier codes of conduct and contractual requirements
Conduct supplier risk assessments and audits
Design corrective action and monitoring systems
Align with evolving regulatory requirements, including European due diligence directives
Due diligence should be embedded into procurement systems — not treated as an external compliance layer.
Sustainable Procurement Strategy
Procurement teams play a critical role in transition planning.
We support:
Development of sustainable procurement policies
Integration of ESG criteria into supplier selection and evaluation
Supplier engagement and capacity-building programmes
Cross-functional alignment between procurement, sustainability, and finance
Responsible sourcing strengthens resilience and protects reputation.
Climate & Resource Resilience in Value Chains
Climate impacts increasingly disrupt supply continuity.
We assist organisations to:
Assess supplier exposure to physical and transition climate risk
Integrate climate resilience criteria into sourcing decisions
Support supplier decarbonisation initiatives
Strengthen monitoring of emissions and resource performance across value chains
Proactive resilience planning reduces operational disruption.
Data, Governance & Reporting
Supply chain performance is under growing investor and regulatory scrutiny.
We help organisations to:
Strengthen supply chain data systems
Align value chain disclosures with ESG reporting frameworks
Integrate supplier oversight into board-level governance
