Supply Chain Decarbonization Accelerator
Industry Cohorts for Collaborative Scope 3 Success
Industry Cohorts for Collaborative Scope 3 Success
The Challenge
Even companies with science-based targets are struggling to move the needle on Scope 3 because the traditional approach—engaging suppliers on a company-by-company basis—simply isn't adequate.
The Solution
Work together. SPLC has created a 6-month purchaser-supplier cohort where organizations work with their peers to target shared, strategic suppliers—creating unified action to learn, plan, and act together for decisive Scope 3 progress.
The Initial Focus
Launching in January 2026, the first four cohorts of Accelerator will focus on supply chains in the Real Estate, Food & Beverage, Utilities/Energy, and Professional Services sectors (interest for other sectors can be expressed through the Interest Form below). The cohorts, available at both member and non-member rates, include 10-90 minute virtual sessions across six months with a mix of interactive learning and working sessions including:
 |
Carbon Accounting Basics Methods, challenges & disclosures (GRI, CSRD, etc.) |
 |
Supplier Engagement Strategies Plus case studies of what works |
 |
Strategic Program Development Guided long-term climate planning |
 |
Collaborative Roadmapping Identify & prioritize GHG reduction opportunities |
