After more than seventeen years of leadership, AIAG CEO J. Scot Sharland has retired, paving the way for global supply chain executive P. Matthew Pohlman to support the AIAG team and mobility sector moving forward.

It’s time to reframe our outlook on the future of supply chain management. While absolutely necessary, an incredible amount of time and energy has already been devoted to navigating today’s complex supply chain landscape – but what about tomorrow?

Chris Lewis joined AIAG in May as vice president of outreach and engagement. With extensive experience leading organizations, including those in the nonprofit and education sectors, Lewis’s passion lies in implementing initiatives that promote business growth, diversity, and inclusion.

Plans are heating up for the 2022 IMDS & Product Compliance Conference — and we’re excited to announce you can attend virtually or in person. Scheduled for October 11–12, 2022, attendees will convene at Suburban Collection Showplace in Novi, Michigan.

The Guiding Principles are based on fundamental principles of social, environmental, and governance responsibility consistent with applicable laws and international standards. They outline the expectations of automotive companies towards suppliers on issues related to sustainability. With additional sections on circularity, carbon neutrality, animal welfare, biodiversity, land use, and deforestation, the newly revised Guiding Principles aim to address the latest trends and industry expectations for supply chain sustainability.

How ESG Research Firms Evaluate Supply Chain Sustainability

Publicly traded companies are increasingly inundated with requests to publish environmental, social, and governance (ESG) data. The most influential requests are coming from organizations that directly participate in financial markets. An influential piece of this ESG Ecosystem is the organizations that develop and promote ESG disclosure guidance, frameworks, and/or standards. These organizations are sometimes referenced by the financial markets, governments, stock exchanges, or companies. Institutional customer demand for ESG information is rippling through entire supply chains, thereby impacting suppliers that are both publicly traded or privately held. In this webinar, learn the information various ESG firms are expecting companies to provide to demonstrate sustainable supply chain practices.
