Supply Chain
We have not, as a policy, measured the quantity of emissions generated by our supply chain. However, Ford Europe is piloting capturing the greenhouse gas impact of its material choices and its logistics footprint.
The Supplier Sustainability Forum, formed in 2001, is a place for sharing best practices, developing future Ford-supplier strategies and metrics, and helping us better communicate and refine our sustainability policies. This forum is one area where the topic of climate change has been discussed.
In addition, our efforts to encourage and, in some cases, require suppliers to implement robust environmental management systems will help them report their emissions inventories in the future. We also will seek out opportunities to partner with suppliers to improve the greenhouse gas emissions performance of our products.
As of today, all of our Q1 suppliers are ISO 14001 certified.
