Start Learning

Over 220 major clients, contractors and suppliers are collaborating through the School to tackle the environmental, social and economic sustainability issues we face in today’s market.

High priority challenges faced by the construction industry include: supply chain disruption, net zero and embodied carbon, transitioning towards a circular economy, Social Value and responding to PPN 06/20, biodiversity net gain, improving air quality, responding to new Modern Slavery legislation and issues surrounding Fairness, Inclusion and Respect.

Simply put, the industry needs to deliver more for less, and the role of the supply chain has never been more critical.

“Of all the external schemes our organisation is partnered with the Supply Chain Sustainability School is by far the most beneficial to us”
