How we help
Procurement must play a significant role in driving sustainability and delivering improvements across many broader ESG metrics, but taking action can be challenging. Working alongside you every step of the way, from baselining and strategy development to delivering measurable changes, we help you build robust tools and approaches, develop knowledge, and skills, and adopt technologies to create a more sustainable supply chain.
Today, consumers, employees, and investors are putting increasing pressure on businesses to minimize negative social and environmental impacts and to create business value without compromising on these. Procurement can take the lead in driving this change. However, for many businesses, understanding and balancing ESG opportunities is challenging.
At Efficio, we put sustainable procurement approaches at the heart of everything we do. Together, we help you determine opportunities, build your team‘s capabilities, and adopt strategies that enable you to maximize ESG improvements without compromising on cost management.
Changing Procurement to be ESG and cost-led requires a strong business case, a plan for change, and a trusted roadmap that the business fully supports.
Relevant and attainable metrics are critical to measuring and managing progress against ESG targets and building supply chain sustainability and resilience in an unpredictable global environment.
The legislative and voluntary reporting burden grows in complexity daily - failing to deliver public ESG commitments can quickly damage the reputation of a business.
Targets are just the start. New tools, skills, and approaches are needed to improve Carbon, Diversity & Inclusion, Waste, Localised Supply, and many other parameters.
Sustainability must be embedded throughout procurement processes. At Efficio, we use tried-and-tested methodologies to create resilient, transparent, and green supply chains and to target improvements across all ESG metrics. We often start by carrying out a thorough Opportunity Assessment to determine key risks and opportunities before creating a strategy to deliver improvements.
Drawing on over 20 years of experience, we believe that taking targeted action is vital for any business. By capturing and accessing data through eFlow, our digital platform, we will help you take control of your supply chain and focus on actions that make a tangible difference.
Equipped with this insightful data, actionable ESG strategies, and a team of experts on your side, you will be perfectly positioned to see continuous improvement across your supply chain, both now and in the long term.

Efficio’s London headquarters holds the BS EN ISO 14001 certification.
ISO 14001 is an internationally agreed standard that sets out the requirements for an environmental management system. It helps organisations improve their environmental performance through more efficient use of resources and reduction of waste, gaining a competitive advantage and the trust of stakeholders.
It requires that an organisation considers all environmental issues relevant to its operations, such as air pollution, water and sewage issues, waste management, soil contamination, climate change mitigation and adaptation, and resource use and efficiency.
