9 Steden maken het verschil Lokale overheden krijgen rechtstreekse druk van bevolking die verduurzaming eist en windowdressing verafschuwt. Lokale overheden hebben verantwoordelijkheid over welzijn van hun inwoners dit is zo overal in de wereld. è Politieke wil en druk groeit

10 Steden kunnen dat niet zonder leveranciers De sleutel tot verduurzamen ligt niet bij de eindgebruiker, wel bij de leveranciers. Er is een groeiend besef dat we dit evenmin zomaar kunnen afwentelen op leveranciers. è Proefproject in Gent om lokale ondernemers te helpen verduurzamen doorheen hun keten

11 Steden kunnen dat niet zonder controle Duurzaam aankopen start bij bestekcriteria, maar kan er niet bij stoppen. Controle op naleving is noodzakelijk voor geloofwaardigheid è Systemen van ketenbeheer zullen steeds belangrijker worden

12 Vraag naar duurzame producten (en garanties ervoor) groeit, slimme ondernemers kunnen er hun USP van maken. Waakzaamheid over oprechtheid en geloofwaardigheid van duurzaamheidsclaims groeit ook. è Ketenbeheer in functie van globale duurzaamheid zal gegarandeerd gevolgen hebben voor de werking van een bedrijf.

13 Transparan6e in de keten is start Leverancier is verantwoordelijk voor de gehele keten en zal hierop steeds meer gevat worden. Kennis van en transparantie over de productieketen moet groeien want zal steeds meer geëist worden in opdrachten è Leveranciers bereiden zich hierop best voor, want is vaak ingrijpend in business model.

14 Audits Tijdsopname en fraude-gevoelig Duur voor zowel aankoper als leverancier Vereist kennis en transparantie over de productieketen. Bij gebrek aan geloofwaardige certificaten of beheersystemen vaak enige beschikbare tool.

15 Systemen voor ketenbeheer kunnen helpen kost te drukken Certificaten Multistakeholder initiatieven Kruispunt-systemen.

16 Certificaten

17 Cer6ficaten Meest omvattende ketengarantie (pass/fail aanpak) Doorgaans heel hoge norm (future proof) Heel goedkoop te controleren voor aankoper Erg intrusief in businessmodel leverancier Niet voor alle segmenten beschikbaar, niet altijd overlap sociale/ecologische criteria

18 Multi-stakeholder initiatieven

19 Mul6- stakeholder Krachtig en geloofwaardig changeinstrument indien sectorbreed aangepakt Erg intrusief in businessmodel, maar respecteert evolutie op bedrijfsniveau (stapsgewijze aanpak) Niet voor alle segmenten beschikbaar Moeilijk te valoriseren in overheidsopdrachten

20 Kruispuntsystemen Auditbureau s bieden aantal (commerciële) systemen aan die frequentie en kost van audits helpen verminderen. Lidmaatschap betaald door aankoper en leverancier Wetgeving overheidsopdrachten laat dit niet toe als hard criterium à nog niet gegarandeerd dat dit beantwoordt aan specifieke bestekvragen.

21 Voorbeeld SMETA / SEDEX = Supplier Ethical Data Exchange + Sedex Member Ethical Audit = platform van uitwisseling en erkenning van uitgevoerde audits ECOVADIS = samenwerkingsplatform en monitoringsysteem waarbij bedrijven de prestaties op het gebied van duurzaamheid kunnen evalueren van hun leveranciers
