About The Series

At TSC, we know it can be a challenge to report sustainability data for your products or brands. We also know that sustainability reporting can provide vital business insights for both you and your retail customers. In order to help suppliers responding to the Sustainability Index for Walmart and other retail customers, TSC has put together a series of webinars full of tips, tricks, and insights. This series will help you learn to efficiently collect the data you need, accurately report to your customers, and turn the results into valuable insights for your own company.

The SAP Product Stewardship Network 

SAP Product Stewardship Network (PSN) is an online tool that enables retailers to exchange sustainability data efficiently and confidentially.  Within the PSN cloud system, retailers send their suppliers category specific surveys about how they are sourcing ethically and sustainably.  Supplier responses are recorded and communicated through the same system.  A benefit to suppliers is the immediate report on responses and, if 5 or more suppliers have completed the same questionnaire, an anonymized chart displaying how rankings among suppliers is included. 

 About The Sustainability Consortium 

The Sustainability Consortium (TSC) uses the best sustainability science to help companies make the everyday products we use better and more sustainable. The products and services of TSC reflect their academic and collaborative values: science-based, stakeholder-informed, and focused on impact. TSC Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) not only help improve the sustainability of the products we use every day, but also drive efficiency by letting suppliers answer a unified set of measurement questions for different retail customers. TSC has many resources available for suppliers needing help and/or tools related to answering KPIs and is offering multiple levels of educational webinars leading up to the 2018 Index.
