Why SuSciCo
SuSciCo’s training is based on practical ESG, GHG, Scope 3, Product Carbon Footprint and supplier ESG support experience.
We help teams understand how supplier ESG and sustainable procurement requirements translate into records, responsibilities, supplier assessment, evidence and next steps — not generic sustainability awareness.
Our approach connects procurement practice with ESG, GHG, Scope 3 and buyer-response needs, while keeping the training practical for procurement, sustainability and operations teams.
Where relevant, we help teams understand buyer questionnaires, Scope 3 supplier data requests and EcoVadis-style assessment questions, without promising any score, rating, medal, verification or acceptance outcome.
Is this the same as green procurement training?

Yes. The half-day briefing is designed for management teams that need to understand the topic, business relevance and possible next steps before deciding on wider training or service support.
Is this suitable for procurement teams?
Yes. The training is suitable for procurement and supply chain teams that need to understand supplier ESG requirements, supplier assessment, scorecards, corrective actions and evidence responsibilities.
Can this training help with EcoVadis-style questions?
Yes. The training can help teams understand sustainable procurement and supplier ESG evidence commonly requested in EcoVadis-style or buyer assessments. SuSciCo does not guarantee EcoVadis scores, ratings, medals or acceptance outcomes.
Can this training support Scope 3 supplier data collection?
Yes, where relevant. The training can explain how procurement and supplier information may support Scope 3 supplier data needs. Detailed GHG accounting or Scope 3 inventory development should be scoped separately.
Can this training be combined with service support?
