Boost Supplier Engagement with Support from Scope 3 Specialists
Value chain emissions represent 75% of an enterprise’s overall footprint, according to SBTi. Achieving your net zero target requires an effective scope 3 strategy.
Most enterprises are behind on their scope 3-oriented supplier engagement targets.
Our multi-pronged supply chain decarbonization solutions are focused on results and designed to help you mobilize suppliers, reduce scope 3 emissions, and take a big step toward net zero, through effective, hands-on 1:1 support.
“RyeStrategy worked closely with a group of our highest emitting suppliers we identified together. Within a matter of months, they successfully converted one of our top five emitting suppliers from emissions skeptic to climate champion, helping them calculate their GHG inventory and commit to science-based targets through SBTi.”

Educate, Engage, and Excite your Suppliers to Take Climate Action
We know that your supplier-oriented climate requests are rooted in your company’s carbon reduction targets and a global mission to protect our planet from the impacts of rising carbon emissions. Your suppliers, however, might not understand that right away.
Our proven approach starts by empowering your suppliers with information to get them excited about taking climate action.
1:1 Strategy Sessions
Climate action can be intimidating, especially for your SMB suppliers who are early in their climate journey. When we meet directly with your suppliers, we can answer questions, identify roadblocks, and create a climate plan, together.
Climate Action Plan
Based on the 1:1 strategy session, we deliver a personalized, 20-page climate action plan to each of your suppliers mapping their next steps to setting their own climate goals, while also fulfilling your supplier requests.
Educational Webinars
We engage your suppliers through tailored educational webinars beginning with foundational topics like carbon accounting, mitigation strategies, setting emissions targets, and emissions data reporting.
Climate Disclosures
Whether you are asking suppliers to report to CDP, SBTi, or your own internal reporting tools, we'll help your vendors submit their data for a pain-free and accurate disclosure process.
