Bridging organisational discourse and practice change: exploring sustainable procurement portfolios for Australian beef

What is it about?

Using a set of known activities and strategies that a procurement manager might draw from in operationalising sustainability goals, we cluster activities into three discrete activity portfolios. Each portfolio requires differing levels of effort, implementation complexity, and potential for within-pillar and cross-pillar impact (i.e., co-benefits). Assessing the evidence and potential for cross-pillar impacts of individual strategies is a complex undertaking, indicative of the systems and tangled interactions that characterise sustainability science more broadly.
