Integrating Sustainability Into Supply Risk Management: Best Practices to Improve Supplier Performance and Reduce Supply Chain Risk

Overview Consider that in 2007, it was discovered that lead paint had been used in the production of toys delivered by Mattel. In a short period of time, the stock price declined by more than 20 percent, and the stock value still has not returned to previous levels. The market cap declined US$1.9 billion and the brand name took a hit from which it may never recover. The purpose of this white paper is to discuss the critical elements of a supplier risk solution that integrates sustainability factors into a holistic supplier analysis. This necessitates not only a thorough analysis of a supplier's financial track record, but also environmental and social performance as well.
