The Sustainable Procurement Value Shift: Barometer 2026 Findings

May 13, 2026

Sustainable procurement has entered a new phase: leaders are no longer asking whether it matters – they’re being asked to prove the business value. In an environment shaped by geopolitical volatility, climate disruption, and rising regulatory pressure, procurement is becoming a lever to protect margins, strengthen resilience, and unlock innovation-led growth.

In this session, we’ll break down the headline findings from the 2026 Sustainable Procurement Barometer from EcoVadis, in collaboration with Accenture, based on insights from 1,000 multinational organizations ($1B+ revenue) across 20 industries. We’ll explore a major market shift: why 80% of leading organizations now see more ROI from supply chain innovation than from compliance alone.

You’ll leave with a clear view of:

  • How leading companies are turning sustainability into measurable business performance
  • Addressing the "digital asymmetry" between buyers using AI for risk screening and suppliers who are lagging in adoption
  • Why Tier 1 visibility has reached 80%, while Tier 2 and 3 remain critical blind spots
  • How proactive supply chain management is driving higher revenue growth than industry peers


Speakers: 

  • Matias Pollmann-Larsen, Global Sustainable Value Chain Lead, Accenture
  • Tara Mikhail, Sustainable Value Chains Lead, Accenture
  • Pierre-Francois Thaler, Co-Founder & Co-CEO, EcoVadis
