“Beyond Compliance: Embedding Sustainability in Procurement” – In this keynote from Procurement & Supply Chain LIVE: Sustainability, Natalisa Pickett, Head of Procurement at KeolisAmey Docklands, shares her approach to making sustainability a core element of procurement strategy. Pickett argues that compliance is just the starting point. Embedding sustainability requires proactive engagement, strong relationships with internal stakeholders and suppliers, and a shift away from tick-box exercises towards meaningful, outcome-driven actions. She highlights KeolisAmey Docklands’ initiatives, including supplier audits, supporting smaller suppliers, and the phased introduction of enabling technologies. The session also addresses the cultural shift needed within procurement teams, and the challenges of setting and tracking sustainability targets across diverse spend categories.
