Recognising the efforts and resources needed to manage their environmental impact, Novy wanted an easier way to collect accurate emissions data from their suppliers without burdening them or their own team. To tackle this problem, Novy teamed with ClimateCamp. Their main goal was to get a clear picture of their value chain's current status on sustainability so they could make smart decisions about working together to reduce emissions.
ClimateCamp provided them with a flexible and comprehensive experience on their platform to meet Novy’s specific requirements. Unlike platforms that flood suppliers with generic questions, our personalized approach aimed to simplify and enhance relevance. By ensuring meaningful engagement without overwhelming, a collaborative environment was fostered that encouraged impactful change.
The team at DW really liked how ClimateCamp's solutions and support made their tasks faster and easier.
“ We found ClimateCamp to be highly engaging, committed, and focused on results throughout the project. Their team worked closely with us, ensuring steady progress and meeting our expectations. We valued ClimateCamp’s straightforward approach, which prioritized delivering the sustainability outcomes we needed.”
A comment from Dries Mahieu, Compliance Expert at Novy
One of the key advantages of working with ClimateCamp was the reduction in workload for Novy's employees. Our technology platform automated supplier surveys, data collection, and analysis, allowing Novy's team to focus on more important tasks. Although some suppliers had initial concerns about ClimateCamp's legitimacy and relevance, our clear communication and strong support quickly addressed these issues. ClimateCamp's powerful software, along with our helpful customer support, made the process smooth and saved Novy a lot of time.
With our assistance, Novy successfully gathered data on their Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, in addition to obtaining vital Scope 3 data from secondary sources. This approach provided Novy with a deep understanding of their environmental footprint, enabling them to pinpoint areas for improvement.
By setting up a dedicated sustainability committee, Novy used our tools and expertise to explore their value chain in detail, compare their performance with competitors, and conduct Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) analyses for specific products.
A notable outcome of our collaboration was the positive response from Novy's suppliers. While larger suppliers typically had readily available data, smaller suppliers often didn't have data initially. However, with thorough education, these smaller suppliers recognized the importance of starting their own CO2 footprint calculations. These efforts helped both Novy and their suppliers progress and mature together, ultimately giving Novy a more complete view of their Scope 3 emissions.
The alliance between Novy and ClimateCamp has triggered a powerful ripple effect, nurturing sustainability across their supply chain. By empowering and educating suppliers, Novy has built a culture of environmental responsibility that goes beyond their own operations. This teamwork has encouraged suppliers to assess their carbon footprints on their own, leading to collective action for a more sustainable future.
Novy's partnership with ClimateCamp shows how customized solutions and teamwork can drive sustainability. By working together, Novy has reduced their employees' workload and made significant progress towards their sustainability goals. This success highlights the importance of personalized strategies in engaging suppliers and promoting environmental responsibility. Together, ClimateCamp and Novy are leading the way towards a sustainable and resilient future.
