Start small, dream big
We help you capture double materiality value by embedding sustainability capabilities in the heart of your sourcing organization. Our services are designed to support organizations no matter where they are in their journey. We prefer to create incremental value through straightforward use cases and proof of concept projects.
Focus on sourcing
Engage your value chain
Procurement is an extended business area with procure-to-pay and source-to-contract as the main processes. HIKE's primary focus is on the sourcing sub-process as we believe this is the foundation of sustainable value chains and where the biggest value potential resides.
Strategy & Roadmap
Sustainability reporting requirements are becoming an integral part of financial reporting via the EU taxonomy and CSRD regulation. Organizations have to go beyond their own boundaries and re-invent the way they manage their value chain. It is our ambition to translate these requirements in a pragmatic way to procurement business domain.
Materiality assessment
Identify and quantify Sustainable Development Goals and monitor performance via Science Based Targets (SBTi) & in line with reporting standards (e.g. GRI, CDP)
Roadmap definition
Develop a sustainable sourcing strategy in 12 weeks.
Our inclusive methodology facilitates the process, starting from your current state to a well defined roadmap
Capability building
Develop capabilities to capture double materiality in practice with a save to invest mindset. We optimize the current way of working and free-up time & resources to invest in sustainable action. For this we use a Lean methodology that was customized to implement sustainable sourcing practices.
Time & capability analysis
Perform a scan of your sourcing organisation from a people perspective. By optimizing the current way of working we strive to transform to sustainable sourcing with zero additional time investment
Process enrichment
Enrich standard sourcing processes such as spend management, tender management, supplier relationship management and value chain optimization initiatives with a sustainability dimension
Performance management
Define, track and monitor performance of tender planning, value chain optimization initiatives and staff. Visualizing performance helps to raise awareness and trigger action
Data visualization
Convert raw data into double materiality insights that are understandable and actionable. We build dashboards tailored to your sourcing department's needs. The number of vendors and platforms you could consider is huge. We work with best in class visualization tools and if possible use tools that are already available in your company to avoid additional license costs.
Dashboard design
A good dashboard starts from understanding performance needs and translating this in self-explaining visuals. Dashboards are developed in an iterative way together with the team
Functional data mapping
Map different data sources to your products to obtain a cross-dimensional view on double materiality performance. Together we explore, select and map the best data sources for sustainable insights
Data engineering
Set-up future proof data management. As HIKE doesn't have this knowledge internally we partner with your data & analytics team or we work with Data Minded as our trusted partner
