Ecosystem partners

As a global community of changemakers committed to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030, collaboration is an indispensable asset to achieve our goals.
We are radical collaborators: we do not duplicate, we do not compete. We accelerate existing initiatives and convene spaces to co-create practical solutions to achieve impact faster.
When we see an opportunity for impact-driven collaboration, we seize it! We actively reach out to various stakeholders across regions, industries and sectors to explore who is interested in supporting – and being supported – by a community of procurement professionals committed to embedding sustainable procurement practices.  

We promote and leverage the power of procurement and engage in some incredible collaborations with the following organizations to help empower our community, unleash innovation, and transform challenges into opportunities: 

Equipoise

Equipoise, a tech-enabled sustainable procurement consultancy helping organizations capture growth, build resilience, and optimize costs by turning Sustainable Procurement ambition into action, have entered into a strategic collaboration with SPP in 2026 to advance knowledge sharing, capability building, and peer exchange within the procurement community.

Through the partnership, Equipoise is offering all SPP Ambassadors free access to the Sustainable Procurement Scope 3 Resource Hub: a curated, end-to-end learning pathway developed in close collaboration with procurement practitioners over two years, including two full e-learning modules at no cost. Equipoise has also co-created the 2026 and 2025 World Sustainable Procurement Day white papers, translating key insights and practical takeaways from across the SPP community into actionable next steps for procurement teams.

This collaboration reflects a shared commitment to equipping the procurement profession with the tools, knowledge, and confidence needed to make sustainable procurement the default.

Bain & Company

SPP and Bain & Company entered into a strategic collaboration in 2025 to advance Phase 2—the Piloting Phase—of the SPP “Carbon Pricing for Procurement” initiative. Drawing on Bain’s expertise in sustainability and decarbonization, the partnership focused on refining the SPP Carbon Pricing Principles, guided by implementation feedback from the SPP community. Bain supported the initiative by facilitating and synthesizing insights from participating companies’ piloting efforts to strengthen clarity, consistency, and real-world applicability, which have been shared with the broader procurement community. This collaboration underscored a shared commitment to accelerating sustainable procurement practices and advancing credible, actionable carbon pricing approaches to drive meaningful progress in decarbonization.

Health Proc Europe (HPE)

The Sustainable Procurement Pledge (SPP) and Health Proc Europe (HPE) are joining forces under the Alliance for Procurement Impact (API) initiative. This collaboration aims to transform and advance healthcare procurement into a strategic enabler of supply security, sustainability, and resilience across Europe. 

Building on the first phase of the API project, SPP joins as a partner for Phase 2 in 2026 to contribute the voice of procurement practitioners through its Pharma & Life Sciences and Public Procurement Chapters. Together, SPP and HPE will co-create and validate a Sustainable & Resilient Procurement Toolkit, designed to equip healthcare systems with practical tools, templates, and best practices aligned with EU policy goals, including the Critical Medicines Act and the Green Transition.

This collaboration reflects a shared commitment to empower professionals, strengthen supply chain resilience, and embed sustainability in every procurement decision.

Join the SPP Community and follow the Pharma & Life Sciences and/or the Public Procurement groups on LinkedIn for up-to-date project information, opportunities to engage and resources.   

World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD)

In 2025, SPP joined forces with the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) — a CEO-led network of over 250 leading businesses working together to accelerate the transition to a sustainable world. Through the partnership, we shared content with our communities, and drove decarbonization solutions. A key focus was the collaboration with WBCSD’s The Climate Drive Action Library, a global action library of proven climate strategies. SPP contributed expertise and real-world case studies from its Guide, collaborated on procurement-specific solutions, and helped expand The Climate Drive’s reach, making practical climate action more accessible to procurement professionals worldwide.

Economist Impact

The Sustainable Procurement Pledge (SPP) engaged in a strategic collaboration with Economist Impact as part of its Year of Procurement and the celebration of the SPP’s “5 Years of Impact” in 2024. By working with Economist Impact, SPP aimed at fostering partnerships that transcend traditional boundaries and opening doors for procurement professionals to access a global network of allies working towards shared sustainability objectives.

First Movers Coalition of the World Economic Forum

The Procure Innovation Dialogues, co-hosted by the Sustainable Procurement Pledge and the First Movers Coalition of the World Economic Forum, was held on 20 September 2024 and brought together a community of influential Chief Procurement Officers (CPOs) and their C-suite partners. The 2024 Dialogues focused on identifying concrete approaches to sustainability improvements and fostering strong partnerships between CPOs and their senior supply chain partners.
