Reporting on CO2 and sustainability is essential, but let’s be clear—it won’t save the planet. Only action will, and though not all agree to whether or not we are at a tipping point for saving the planet, then all of us, however, can agree that “doing something, is better than doing nothing.”.
Doing something for some people means hugging a tree or gluing oneself to the nearest highway intersection. There’s nothing wrong with that; just don’t break the law or get killed while doing it.
But we work in procurement and kind of like to deploy pragmatic solutions to our very tangible supply market problems… so we picked another solution.
Nearly every piece of goods or service in the world passes through a B2B procurement step between two companies. That’s the hidden power we can harness to make real, tangible change.
Imagine the impact if every single procurement decision—every order, every supplier choice – was just a little more sustainable. This isn’t about grand gestures; it’s about consistent, everyday action that adds up to something monumental. Together, we can push the needle further than ever toward saving our planet, all the while simply doing the job we do anyway.
At CostBits, we know the world isn’t driven solely by the desire to “save the planet.” We get it – businesses are in the trenches, fighting for survival in a cutthroat environment where every penny counts. That’s why we don’t just talk about sustainability; we make it a real, actionable part of your procurement.
We give you full transparency on your costs while simultaneously giving you the sustainability insights you need to make better decisions for the planet AND for your company’s finances.
(We can also get you a much stronger glue on discount; if this remains to be your chosen path).
