SPP Ambassadors are individuals who see the power of the procurement profession to drive positive change for people & planet. By coming together under the principles of the SPP Pledge, we are making a difference by mobilizing the collective power of Procurement. How you get involved is up to you. But by simply joining SPP as am Ambassador you are supporting and empowering our work and mission.
You join SPP by signing The Pledge – see below for more information.
By personally committing yourself to the statements below, you pledge to foster a common understanding of responsible, inclusive and cooperative Procurement behavior while including them in your day-to-day business conduct.
The world is facing tremendous environmental and social challenges.
We in Procurement have a critical role to contribute to the solutions, to steer and to develop responsible supply chains. I pledge to do my best to stop exploitation of nature and human beings, environmental pollution, rising inequality and injustice. I will act against modern slavery, human trafficking, child labor, corruption and bribery while upholding business ethics and law-abiding behavior.
I am convinced that all of us involved in Procurement can make a difference by joining forces to accelerate the creation of a just and low-carbon emissions world by contributing to the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
I will team up with my Procurement colleagues, my Procurement networks, academics, NGOs and government bodies to exchange on and advance responsible business behavior.
I commit myself to lead by example and include sustainability as part of my overall mindful vision and values.
I will integrate sustainability aspects into my every-day Procurement decision-making criteria and work with my colleagues and suppliers to drive lasting improvements.
I will actively share my sustainability knowledge while keeping confidentiality obligations and antitrust rules in mind and always collaborate with all involved stakeholders on our shared mission. I will remain open to the advice and proposals of my peers.
I pledge to raise concerns in case of inappropriate business behavior or when I observe unsustainable practices. I fully respect the principles of the UN Global Compact and other international standards and agreements. I am determined to ensure that Procurement leaves the legacy of protecting a sustainable planet for us and future generations.
Being an SPP Ambassador gives me a greater sense of purpose as a procurement professional.
Becoming an active member of the SPP makes me feel more empowered to take procurement decisions that benefit people and planet.
The SPP is a great place to connect and network with like-minded people. I thoroughly recommend it to anyone who wants to make a more positive impact through their procurement work.
