Supply Chain Decarbonization
Guided by Academic Research
About Us
Our Story
Most Scope 3 approaches ask companies to survey hundreds of suppliers and hope for the best. We learned there's a better way. Our work with organizations like BC Hydro and the Provincial Health Services Authority revealed that a small fraction of suppliers—often just 20-40—represent the majority of material emissions. And more importantly, those same suppliers hold untapped operational savings. SDG Advisory Group was built on this insight: focus beats volume. Our Supplier Prioritization Mapping platform (InScope) helps enterprises identify where emissions reduction and cost savings intersect—so they can engage suppliers who can actually drive change.
Mission
To capture real operational cost savings for the organizations we serve. Decarbonization happens along the way. We're committed to measuring actual results—not just estimates—because that's how trust gets built.
Values
Operational excellence and innovation form the core of our identity. Grounded in integrity and a commitment to environmental stewardship, we prioritize building strong partnerships to advance sustainable practices and create a brighter future for generations to come.
Leadership
Our team is at the forefront of sustainable procurement and supplier relationship management, with a dedicated focus on reducing Scope 3 emissions. Our approach is rooted in academic research, and is reinforced by insights from our industry partners to ensure our tools and processes are practical and impactful across all industries. We proudly presented our findings at the 2024 Victoria Forum, showcasing how academic research can drive real-world applications.
Our expertise in sustainable practices and operational efficiency positions us at the forefront of innovative solutions in the field. Our journey began with a comprehensive exploration of Scope 3 emissions, highlighting the crucial role of indirect emissions in a company's environmental impact and strengthening our commitment to fostering sustainable supplier relationships.
We are committed to advancing a lean and circular economy, setting new standards for sustainable operations. As mentors and thought leaders, we empower organizations to embrace social responsibility and positively influence their supplier networks. Leadership, to us, means driving growth and shaping a sustainable future for all stakeholders through data-driven decision making.
