Supply Chain Categorisation

Walkthrough Summary

• Introduction
  • Presented by Alex King, Head of Customer Success at NetNada.
  • Overview of supply chain categorisation, verification of Scope 3 categorisation, and exclusion of certain suppliers.
• Navigating to Supply Chain Review
  • Access the supply chain section from the left menu or the main dashboard.
  • Review newly uploaded business expenses and categorise suppliers accurately.
• Supplier Review and Confidence
  • System flags suppliers needing review for verification.
  • Approve or change supplier categories as needed (e.g., reclassify "First Choice" from ICT to Insurance).
  • Adjust emission factors based on correct categorisation (e.g., changing from "Postage" to "Machinery" increases emission factor).
• Focus on Major Suppliers
  • Prioritise reviewing top 20-40 suppliers for accurate emission reporting.
  • Minor suppliers (e.g., 0.01% emissions) have less impact on overall carbon account.
• Excluding Suppliers
  • Identify and exclude irrelevant suppliers (e.g., stock adjustments, internal differentials) from carbon accounting.
  • Exclude employees incorrectly categorised as suppliers (e.g., Nick Fish, previously a contractor now an employee).
• Best Practices and Next Steps
  • Review the first 100 suppliers or those above a certain emission threshold (e.g., over a ton).
