Your Expert partner in Sustainable supply chain management

Ready-to-take-the-lead-0224

In a Finnish Yle article dated February 14th, it was reported that major corporations are prepared to make significant changes in their supply chains to meet tightening sustainability obligations.

The article refers to a study by the OP Financial Group, where over 53 percent of respondents believe that subcontractors or suppliers will be changed in the near future due to sustainability obligations. But what role do we, as subcontractors and supply chain experts, play in this process?

We Take Responsibility

Our mission is to meet our customers' growing need for sustainability by offering ethically and environmentally sustainable services. LAPP Group's robust sustainability program supports all its subsidiaries in operating as even stronger partners to their customers globally. This includes adhering to ethical standards, ensuring quality throughout the supply chain, and developing partnerships with responsible actors. We aim to integrate sustainability throughout the entire supply chain so that together with our customers, we can promote sustainable development and responsible business.

With LAPP's global production network and decades of experience, our experts are ready to take responsibility and ensure that our customers' business is not only responsible but also profitable.

  • Ownership of the entire supply chain management includes several key areas:
  • Code of Conduct: Adhering to ethical principles is paramount in ensuring sustainability.
  • Comprehensive quality programs: Ensuring quality throughout the supply chain is essential for maintaining customer trust.
  • Monitoring other key performance indicators (KPIs): Monitoring efficiency and impacts helps ensure continuous improvement in responsible operations.
  • Digitalization: Utilizing technology in supply chain management can improve transparency and efficiency.
  • Sustainable development: Considering environmental and social responsibility aspects throughout the supply chain is crucial for achieving sustainable development goals.

Unveiling the Power of Collaboration: Elevating Product Development Together

As supply chain experts, our role is not only to ensure compliance with sustainability but also to help companies develop and renew their supply chains to meet modern requirements. One concrete example of this is our collaboration with Normet Oy. Our long-term partnership extends far beyond traditional supply chain management - it also extends to product development. Together with Normet, we have created innovative solutions that promote the development and growth of both parties.

When we say we take the ball from our customer, we mean it. Our mission is to make things easier so that our customers can focus on their core competencies. The result is a more successful business for all parties involved, which not only meets current sustainability requirements but is also ready to meet future challenges and expectations. Because ultimately, when we succeed together, we all succeed better.
