What you really need when you ask suppliers for PCFs depends completely on your 'why?'
Build clarity on how you aim to use PCFs for informed decision on which suppliers you request PCFs from and what is 'fit for purpose” .
I can help bring solid thinking into targeted supplier segmentation on PCF asks and support with getting the quality good enough.
I can help design and implement a multi-approach PCF programme - combining both bottom-up and top-down PCFs.
Collecting and utilising supplier PCFs can only be scaled with the right set of digital tools.
Having led PCF and Scope 3 digital tool strategy and design across many products and organisations I can support you in either choosing software and services - from the vast and confusing array of solutions in the market.
My support spans many elements of need - such as business case development, solution selection criteria and decision making, designing pilots and deployment plans for the solutions, or optimising their on-going usage and continued innovation.
Many businesses seek to use standard PCF and Scope 3 tools but will also need to design and develop bespoke components in an overall solution architecture. These components may be required for enterprise data integration, process automation, AI enhancement or analytics layers.
With 35 years experience in business software and data I can support or lead the process to to realise solution components, such as business requirements discovery and refinement, design processes, rapid prototyping and experimentation to rigorous acceptance testing.

PCF data has great potential to generate value with informing decision making and providing new insights - but only if the PCF data is well designed, consistent and trustworthy.
I can help define PCF data quality needs and rules, develop data strategies to ensure data can 'plug and play' into other datasets.
Additionally I can support with the design of management dashboards and how to mine PCF data for genuine new and valuable insights into your products and supply chain.
