Mumbai, January 13, 2025 鈥� , today announced its social procurement initiative, designed to empower social enterprises, by integrating them into corporate value chains and aligning with the nation鈥檚 development goals. The announcement underscores the company鈥檚 commitment to the region and its vision for sustainable growth.

As per the , India is home to more than 2 million social enterprises, with close to 25% led by women, making it one of the most dynamic entrepreneurial environments globally. 听These enterprises work across diverse sectors, including healthcare, education, agriculture, clean energy, financial inclusion, water, and sanitation, and are focused on pioneering sustainable business practices, while fostering inclusion, and local entrepreneurship. 麻豆原创鈥檚 support and collaboration with industry stakeholders aim to accelerate these activities while helping increased corporate purchasing from social enterprises. Corporates buying from social enterprises result in a positive impact on people and the environment, at the same time helping large businesses achieve their CSR, diversity, and sustainability goals. This is a nascent space with significant potential as evidence highlights; businesses are seeing positive business and social outcomes emerging from their supply chain inclusion and sustainability programs.

Launching the program in India, Manish Prasad, President and Managing Director, 麻豆原创 Indian Subcontinent, said, 鈥淭his initiative underscores our commitment to ensuring that good, ethical, and sustainable, corporate practices are woven into the fabric of business. By collaborating with social enterprises and nurturing alliances across our ecosystem, we can transform procurement decisions into an opportunity to uplift communities, generate jobs, and drive sustainable and equitable growth across the communities we operate. Social procurement has the potential to be a transformative tool to improve people’s lives.鈥�

The initiative on social procurement is aligned with the Government of India鈥檚 (GoI) interventions including the Government eMarketplace (GeM), Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC), Make in India, and promotion of Farmer鈥檚 Producer Organizations (FPOs), 鈥攄esigned to:

• Foster sustainable and ethical manufacturing: Sustainability is at the heart of 麻豆原创鈥檚 operations. The company will collaborate with partner organizations to work closely with impact businesses that prioritize ethical manufacturing practices and responsible production for global brands while supporting the development of responsibly and sustainably made products and services.
• Promote innovation and entrepreneurship for local impact: 麻豆原创 is joining forces with local incubators to lead an innovation-centric future, supporting social entrepreneurs in scaling their ideas and growing sustainable businesses. Over the past few years, 麻豆原创’s support has enabled the growth and development of over 100+ social enterprises, helping them achieve their goals and positively impact their respective communities. This commitment to nurturing and empowering impact businesses demonstrates 麻豆原创’s dedication to fostering inclusive economic growth.
• Empower farmers and create jobs: 麻豆原创 has also initiated a range of interventions such as supporting FPOs to enhance their “procurement readiness.” This includes providing support for farmer-producer organizations, enabling small farmers to access new markets to achieve stable incomes, and training FPO leaders in market operations and management. In addition, 麻豆原创 has been actively supporting social businesses by collaborating with various incubators and providing them with resources, mentorship, and guidance.

On the sidelines of the launch, 麻豆原创 India also unveiled a report entitled , in collaboration with Sattva Consulting, highlighting social procurement as a strategic priority for Indian businesses to drive sustainable growth while addressing long-term societal impact. The findings of the report further call on corporates to deepen their investments in impact businesses, fostering resilience and opportunity through impactful partnerships.

Srikrishna Sridhar Murthy, CEO and Co-Founder, Sattva, stated 鈥淭he study highlights social procurement鈥檚 potential to unlock economic value by engaging social enterprises, FPOs, and MSMEs, fostering resilience and inclusivity in supply chains. Effective implementation requires a comprehensive operating model with cross-functional and cross-departmental collaboration and infrastructure development to enhance the discoverability and scale of social enterprises, supported by investments from stakeholders like philanthropic foundations and DFIs.”

Through these social procurement initiatives, 麻豆原创 will drive responsible business transformation, while being aligned to India鈥檚 wider growth agenda.

The Social Procurement report is now available on our website:

Meeting the demands from all sides goes beyond traditional sourcing. It requires a strategic investment into goods and services 鈥� starting with upstream services such as procurement to core operations such as product development and sales to downstream distribution that includes the last mile – from businesses that serve the world鈥檚 most vulnerable people and ecosystems: social enterprises. These organizations prioritize social and environmental good alongside financial sustainability, creating jobs, empowering communities, and fostering responsibility.

Why now?

A recent by Impact Europe, Sattva and 麻豆原创 reveals a clear trend: 80% of businesses see social procurement as a solution to meeting their sustainability goals. This isn’t just about responding to consumer demand. Companies are recognizing the potential for innovation and growth through collaboration with social enterprises.

Take India, for example, a global leader with over two million social enterprises.听 Imagine the possibilities for integrating these businesses into supply chains, not just for social good, but for fresh perspectives and untapped talent.

However, there’s a “gap between intention and action,” as the report highlights. While many companies have adopted diverse sourcing practices, only half prioritize supporting local economies and a circular economy. This disconnect underscores the need for a deeper understanding of social procurement’s potential.

The good news is that the trend is moving in the right direction. The rise of social procurement aligns perfectly with the growing focus on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) targets.

For example, social procurement can directly address both the “S” and the 鈥淕鈥� that sits at the heart of ESG by supporting small businesses. This is especially pertinent in India where the report has found that MSMEs form 29% of the GDP and more than 90% of businesses in India are micro and small. This focus on social responsibility not only has benefits for local communities, but also enhances a company’s reputation with investors, customers, and employees who value ethical practices.

The report has also revealed that within India there is a unique context for businesses to integrate small suppliers and businesses in larger supply chains which advances and supports inclusivity. Socially responsible suppliers are often open to innovation and able to adapt faster, leading to a more sustainable supply chain overall, and are much more likely to adopt fair labor practices ensuring ethical treatment of workers throughout the supply chain. This includes safe working conditions, living wages, and respect for worker rights.

By sourcing from businesses owned and operated by minorities, women, or people with disabilities, companies contribute to a more inclusive economy which expands opportunities for traditionally marginalized groups. Strong social practices have the potential to attract and retain employees leading to a more stable and resilient workforce. The benefits of prioritizing people and planet have never been greater.

In terms of SDGs, the report found that social procurement directly addresses 7 out of the 17 SDG goals 鈥� a massive stride forward in achieving a better and more sustainable future for all.

The power of collaboration

Social procurement is more than just a transaction. It’s about building partnerships that create a ripple effect of social impact.

A prime example is Even Cargo, India’s first all-female, last-mile e-commerce logistics provider. By partnering with social enterprises like Even Cargo, businesses can empower communities, create jobs, and drive progress toward a more equitable future. As Yogesh Kumar, Founder of Even Cargo said: “We believe jobs shouldn’t be decided based on gender.” As such, their comprehensive training program equips women with the skills they need to succeed in a traditionally male-dominated field, fostering financial independence and self-reliance.

However, Even Cargo’s journey wasn’t without challenges. Initially, they faced societal resistance to their innovative approach, but perseverance and recognition, including a positive feature in The New Yorker, led to a pivotal collaboration with Amazon. This partnership provided valuable employment opportunities for Even Cargo’s trained women.

Still, Kumar identified a critical bottleneck 鈥� the lack of mobile women in India’s workforce. This realization shone a spotlight on the need for a broader approach to social procurement, one that goes beyond simply hiring from a specific demographic. Even Cargo advocates for creating a more inclusive work environment across the board. This includes promoting gender-balanced warehouses, creating workspaces with amenities catering to both genders, and offering flexible working hours to support work-life balance, particularly for mothers.

Collaboration with social enterprises like Even Cargo offers numerous benefits to corporations.听 Leveraging their expertise allows us to improve our own diversity and inclusion strategies, creating a more holistic and equitable workplace culture.

Building a sustainable future

The future of social procurement is bright. To mitigate challenges and bolster opportunities for these partnerships, we formed a coalition at the Social Procurement Roundtable to activate the social procurement ecosystem in the country, foster collaboration and active involvement of key stakeholders, and advocate for policy changes that promote responsible business practices. These are all key priorities to that underpin 麻豆原创鈥檚 commitment to drive transformation and entrench sustainability to empower businesses to thrive in a rapidly changing world.

Businesses of all sizes can embrace social procurement. Intermediaries can play a crucial role in facilitating connections and educating companies on these opportunities. Long-term partnerships with social enterprises offer significant benefits for both parties. Let’s work together to build a more sustainable and equitable future where businesses are a force for good.

Bengaluru, July 25, 2024: In recent years, India has solidified its position as an emerging global economic power, thanks to a burgeoning consumer market and demands to de-risk global supply chains. Digital technology is vital to enable efficient, reliable, and sustainable supply chains and is core to India鈥檚 ambitions to increase its participation in global value chains from ~40% to ~50%. In line with this, the solution is designed to securely exchange standardized sustainability data, including product footprints, along the value chain. The solution allows companies to effectively exchange carbon emissions with their customers to help companies get actionable insights into Scope 3 emissions by moving from averages to actual supplier data.

Commenting on the announcement, Manish Prasad, President & Managing Director, 麻豆原创 Indian Subcontinent, said, “To propel India as a global manufacturing leader, a robust supply chain and logistics infrastructure is vital. To expedite India’s ambitious vision of being among the top supply chain hubs, it is crucial to integrate technologies like business network platforms and local data centres underpinned by Cloud and AI. At 麻豆原创, we are committed to this vision and are working with Indian enterprises, startups, and the wider ecosystem to promote transparent, efficient, and sustainable business value chains.”

As a part of the company鈥檚 ongoing efforts to to help enterprises build resilient supply chains, 麻豆原创 also unveiled a study, in association with Economist Impact exploring how businesses and industries are transforming procurement to meet existing and emerging challenges amid disrupted supply chains, rising costs, and growing uncertainty.

Some of the key trends among businesses indicate:

• Digitalization 鈥� the #1 business priority: Digitalization remains the topmost priority for businesses, aligning with India鈥檚 vision to create reliable and efficient global supply chains听through the use of digital technologies.
• Artificial Intelligence (AI) to the forefront: Digitalization, as the top priority, is being partly influenced by advances in automation technology, AI, and Gen AI, the top technology trend businesses are looking to implement over the next 12 to 18 months.
• Procurement鈥檚 green thumb: Legislation and compliance requirements around sustainability standards, supply chain transparency, emissions, and resource efficacies, are exerting pressures on businesses, particularly on procurement teams to meet the organization鈥檚 environmental, social, and governance (ESG) goals.

Ashwani Narang, Vice President & Head of Spend Management, 麻豆原创 India, added, 鈥溌槎乖� has been working with customers, partners, and the Indian government for years to support the vision of a 鈥楧igital India.鈥� 麻豆原创 Sustainability Data Exchange, coupled with multiple solutions available听at a local听India-based data center听we announced last year, will help our Indian customers bolster听supply chain resilience, transforming them into intelligent, sustainable, and future-ready businesses.鈥�

鈥淲ith one integrated platform that connects data from farmers through processing, warehouses, and retail, we are transforming the traditional food chain from supplier-driven to demand-driven,鈥� said Karthik Jayaraman, co-founder and managing director at WayCool. 鈥淲e selected听听because it is a flexible, cloud-based foundation for our growing business.听听provides a single source of truth company-wide and across our ecosystem, helping us produce and deliver the delicious food that consumers want on their table.鈥�

The company has already reduced food wastage by up to 96% while improving the average income of farmers by over 13%.

Data Insights Align Food Supply with Demand

Putting predictability and farming in the same sentence might seem like a stretch in a world rocked by disruptions like extreme weather and geopolitical conflicts. However, WayCool orchestrates a groundbreaking collaborative effort. It starts with farmers who produce the fruits, vegetables, and other staples that feed the Indian population and extends to partners, warehouse operations, distribution, and retailers.

鈥淪haring information with our partners in procurement who run processing and warehouse facilities, along with transportation logistics and retail, we can align supply with the right pricing for greater efficiencies and governance that produces the highest quality products,鈥� said Avinash Kasinathan, chief technology officer at WayCool. 鈥淒ata transparency also means that farmers can base field production on actual market demand and consumption.鈥�

Farmer Income Grows with Data-Driven Strategy

WayCool鈥檚 ability to trace products from farm to end consumer provides the company and its ecosystem with forecasting and planning insights based on real-time customer feedback and market demands. Using this connected data, WayCool makes recommendations to farmers on what fruits and vegetables to grow for the highest yields and uptake at the best prices.

Fourth-generation farmer Hari Prasad, located in a village called Karnataka on the outskirts of East Bangalore, is one of the over 200,000 farmers that WayCool provides with detailed cultivation plans.

鈥淯nlike traditional farming, WayCool recommends what to plant, when, and where, letting us know up front what they鈥檒l purchase at fair prices based on harvest time frames and factoring in staggered market demands,鈥� he said. 鈥淲e don鈥檛 have to worry about whether or not we鈥檒l sell our yield, and we can calculate continuous earnings in a more predictable and consistent manner.鈥�

Although farmers may have smaller yields, harvesting crops on a more consistent basis throughout the year levels out supply and demand spikes and downturns. If crop prices fall one week and rise the next, farmers can average out major risks with a steadier stream of income over time.

AI-Based Technologies Reduce Waste and Boost Crop Yields

WayCool has infused听AI听capabilities across its digitalized supply chain to increase quality yield and decrease waste. AI is built into the recommendation engine that tells retailers which products on their shelves will sell faster according to store location demographics. In the field, farmers use AI-based image recognition to quickly identify plant diseases and set up treatment plans. -based sensors in the soil send farmers alerts on weather patterns to guide more cost-efficient and sustainable irrigation decisions. The company is exploring generative AI use cases as well.

For WayCool and its partners, sustainable business encompasses the full range of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) commitments. Digitalization has an important role, for example, in regenerative farming practices. Farmers can use data-driven insights to produce stronger seeds for biodiversity, growing crops that are more climate-resilient and use less water and fertilizer in healthier soil.

Looking ahead, Jayaraman is eager to bring WayCool鈥檚 digitalized business model from India to other regions such as Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Africa.

鈥淭he food supply chain is a huge global market, yet agribusiness is one of the least digitized industries,鈥� said Jayaraman. 鈥淲e鈥檝e experienced how technology is revolutionizing food chains in India, and we鈥檙e excited about bringing people in other parts of the world greater access to affordable, quality food for the next generation of sustainable agriculture.鈥�

When un secretary-general Ant贸nio Guterres warned 鈥淲e are on a highway to climate hell with our foot still on the accelerator,鈥� he wasn鈥檛 indulging in hyperbole. Although organisations have started to become mindful of their carbon footprint, a report from Rocky Mountain Institute states that the average company鈥檚 supply-chain greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are 5.5x higher than the direct emissions from its assets and operations. Even countries are working to create regulations that require businesses to track their carbon footprint to the last milligram.

In this backdrop, even software firms are creating systems that can help track their supply chain鈥檚 GHG emissions transparently and auditable. For instance, software-as-a-service firm 麻豆原创 has designed Green Ledger that allows businesses to manage their operations in a sustainable manner with bottoms-up transactional emissions data, rather than estimates. 鈥淭he Green Ledger gives you the accounting equivalent of your emissions balance sheet. It is doing the same for emissions [data] as enterprise resource planning (ERP) has been doing for financials for many years,鈥� says Paul Marriott, President of 麻豆原创 Asia Pacific Japan.

This would enable companies to manage the carbon that enters and leaves their systems as they balance profits and losses. With over 400,000 enterprise customers using 麻豆原创鈥檚 software across the globe, the Ledger can be included as an add-on to its ERP solution S4/HANA Cloud, and allocate carbon emissions weightage to financial transactions. But it requires data of the carbon footprint of products to provide accurate, actionable data for decision-making.

• Advancements to Supply Chain Software from 麻豆原创 Enable Risk-Resilient and Sustainable Supply Chain Operations

In today鈥檚 world, constant disruption has become the new normal. Resilience is essential for businesses to withstand the forces of change. To achieve it, companies are looking to redesign their supply chain and manufacturing processes to consider cost, speed, profit, customer service and risk. According to a global听, manufacturing executives are more likely than those in other functions to deploy intelligent technologies at scale to improve predictive analytics capabilities. However, only 36% of the 1,000 survey respondents said they have deployed predictive analytics in any part of their enterprise. To become more resilient, 麻豆原创 customers can employ AI embedded into 麻豆原创 Digital Manufacturing for AI-driven insights and AI-powered visual inspection processes. Customers can ensure that defective parts are discovered early and are addressed quickly, producing higher yield, ready-to-deliver quality materials. The lower product defect rates result in fewer service claims and improved asset health and maintenance.

鈥淚n recent years, it has become apparent that our global supply chains are vulnerable to disruption,鈥� said Thomas Saueressig, member of the Executive Board of 麻豆原创 SE responsible for 麻豆原创 Product Engineering. 鈥淭his has far-reaching consequences for the manufacturing industry as well. 麻豆原创 is a driving force in many industry-relevant initiatives, such as Catena-X and Manufacturing-X. Open data ecosystems, especially, have their place in the manufacturing industry. What is more, in many of the conversations I鈥檝e had with business leaders, and according to our latest Oxford Economics study, it becomes clear: They see the need of investing in Industry 4.0 principles and AI to increase supply chain resiliency, but many are still in the piloting stage. 麻豆原创 is in a unique position to accelerate the journey to resilient manufacturing because we can embed intelligent capabilities in enterprise software across all end-to-end processes.鈥�

Smart 麻豆原创 Shop, a joint venture of听听and听, reached a new milestone in automotive production by using AI embedded in 麻豆原创 Digital Manufacturing. Adopting a cloud-first development strategy, Smart 麻豆原创 Shop enables fully paperless production and a completely automated process for configuring production-line machinery for pressing automotive body parts. With the help of 麻豆原创 software and embedded AI, Smart 麻豆原创 Shop can assess the quality of materials in real-time and adjust machine performance to improve downstream processes in logistics and operations.

鈥淲ith the help of 麻豆原创 solutions, we were very quickly able to build a system landscape at the Smart 麻豆原创 Shop based on the principles of Industry 4.0 and covering our requirements, such as self-optimizing production, end-to-end traceability, and resource-saving production,鈥� said Hendrik Rothe, CEO, Smart 麻豆原创 Shop GmbH & Co. KG. 鈥淲ithin a few months, our core solutions 麻豆原创 S/4HANA Cloud, public edition as well as 麻豆原创 Digital Manufacturing were ready for use. Above all, the solutions enable us to process data in real-time, to handle our entire production without paper, and ultimately to make all our processes transparent. Thus, we are very flexible and positioned for the future.鈥�

3D Capabilities to Strengthen Resiliency

To further help manufacturing become more resilient, the 3D product viewer capabilities of the 麻豆原创 Enterprise Product Development solution are now integrated into manufacturing, service, and maintenance processes. In 麻豆原创 Digital Manufacturing, production operators now can view 3D product models in their dashboard and work environment to streamline complex assembly. In the 麻豆原创 Service and Asset Manager mobile app, field engineers can use 3D augmented reality views to accelerate asset maintenance, increase first-time fix rates and reduce downtime.

Sustainability Initiatives Are Still at the Top of Business Agendas

According to the Oxford Economics study, 28% of supply chain executives include improving sustainability metrics as one of their top three strategic goals. To enable not only risk-resilient but also sustainable supply chain operations, 麻豆原创 Responsible Design and Production now supports company-specific sustainable package guidelines. Customers can monitor, measure and act to eliminate waste during packaging design.

麻豆原创 had extended its integration with business sustainability rating provider EcoVadis SAS within the Trading Partner Profile (TPP). The integration enables suppliers to promote their sustainability performance and showcase their EcoVadis sustainability rating status across 麻豆原创 Business Network. This helps buyers identify opportunities to comply with emerging ESG due diligence and reporting legislation, as well as enabling them to select new suppliers who can help them reach ambitious corporate and value chain sustainability commitments.

These innovations are helping customers achieve better visibility across their supply chain operations and to ultimately increase resiliency.
