Why impact sourcing is a must for outsourcing provider

An Environmental, Social, and Governance (EGS) focus will continue to be a driving force for decision-making for all stakeholders in 2023. Impact sourcing presents opportunities to advance ESG practices across the social element and align with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). 

ADEC Innovations, the parent company of ADEC Arise, was recently invited to join The Art of Possible webinar on impact sourcing by the Global Sourcing Association (GSA). The GSA is the home of the global sourcing standard, a social enterprise striving to make a difference and promote positive change across the technology and business services industry.

In this presentation, our team of global experts explores the drive for impact sourcing within the ESG and SDG context and how organizations can actualise the benefits of this responsible sourcing approach, including: 

• Talent advantages
• Competitive business edge
• Corporate citizenship 

Watch the webinar to learn about the practical applications of impact sourcing on- and off-shore with real-life examples from ADEC Innovations and ADEC Arise. 

Following the presentation, our team and other outsourcing industry leaders participated in a panel discussion, diving deep into the important questions that the industry needs to address to deliver impact sourcing.

We provide insight into the following topics: 

• The biggest challenges in setting up an impact sourcing program — for both service providers and customers
• Applying the lessons learned from outsourcing to impact sourcing practices
• The future of standard global service provider networks
• Practical steps for bringing impact sourcing into a delivery ecosystem 
• Identifying and eradicating risks like “social impact washing” 
• The impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on outsourcing 

Our decades-long history practicing impact sourcing drives opportunities to regions where they’re needed most, bringing new career paths for communities while delivering value and helping companies meet their ESG goals and deliver on SDG initiatives.
