Suppliers & shoring

Suppliers, offshore & nearshore

The supplier and shoring area focuses on the choice of suppliers and the choice around offshoring and nearshoring, focusing on outsourced teams which in the IT sphere sometimes comprise a large part of an IT organization and come with their own profits and challenges. Even in this area, the question of sustainability becomes important as the decision to take one supplier over another or to have offshored or nearshored teams affects what is required of a company's IT system, culture, policies and that a company's total environmental impact can change greatly depending on which country the supplier is located.

Through cooperation with suppliers, organizations can drive the change towards more sustainable IT management that minimizes the negative environmental aspects and enables digitalization to create positive changes. The more organizations place the same demands on their suppliers, the greater the impact and the faster we can achieve climate goals.
