Jonathan Ivelaw-Chapman, Sedex CEO averred, “We recognize that the needs of Sedex members around the world are changing, with buyers and suppliers facing a growing list of issues in global supply chains – from natural resource scarcity and climate change to human rights and child labour, all in an evolving regulatory landscape. That’s why we’ve built Sedex Advance, designed to continuously evolve and scale to help to meet our members’ challenges and opportunities, now and in the future.”
Sedex Advance replaces Sedex 2.0 platform, which was developed by Enablon, a leading software provider of sustainability management solutions. “As a valued Sedex partner, Enablon has encouraged and supported us throughout the transition from Sedex 2.0 to Sedex Advance. We are delighted that Enablon will be continuing to work closely with Sedex on new initiatives, following launch of Sedex Advance,” mentioned Ivelaw-Chapman.
