Distributed Ownership of Sustainability Challenges

Battery manufacturers have quite a complex supply chain stretching from the mining and refining of minerals, the production of active materials, to the production of cells. The sustainability challenges embedded in the battery supply chain have drawn massive attention from policy-makers and stakeholders, which poses overwhelming pressure on battery manufacturers for an effective alignment with their suppliers on sustainability subjects.

Holistic Alignment and Empowerment

We help battery manufacturers build the competence of their supply chain in managing and fulfilling the sustainability requirements arising from regulations, customer expectations, and multi-stakeholder norms. Our services:

  • Auditing the chain of custody of conflict minerals
  • Auditing the chain of custody of cobalt
  • Auditing social compliance

The Price of Incompliance Is Overwhelming

Both regulatory requirements and stakeholder expectations on sustainability subjects are mounting in many markets around the world. Without legitimate and credible evidence to demonstrate compliance with these evolving sustainability requirements, battery manufacturers may be confronted with the consequences of losing market opportunities or even getting entangled in lawsuits.

Third-Party Attestation on Compliance

We help battery manufacturers gain and demonstrate their compliance with the sustainability requirements arising from regulations, customer expectations, and multi-stakeholder norms. Our services:

  • Testing of hazardous substances in batteries
  • Verifying recycled materials
  • Verifying greenhouse gas emissions at product level
  • Auditing the chain of custody of conflict minerals
  • Auditing the chain of custody of cobalt
