The University has recently started to use SCM and Ecovadis global business sustainability ratings as part of its contract management process. The University is working with APUC to prioritise suppliers in terms of contract value and risk in order to determine which tool should be employed. The University will assess suppliers via the lighter touch SCM tool or the more in-depth and externally assessed Ecovadis tool depending on the results.
