716: Applying ISO Standards to Procurement w/ Melanie Blackmore

"Sustainability is at the top of the agenda for businesses, because now they have to demonstrate exactly what their carbon footprint is and demonstrate with complete credibility and transparency exactly what they're doing." - Melanie Blackmore, Founder & CEO Blackmores (UK) Ltd and Carbonology Ltd

When Melanie Blackmore, Founder & CEO Blackmores (UK) Ltd and Carbonology Ltd, says that she is deeply passionate and "in love with" standards, she readily admits not everyone will be able to relate to her enthusiasm. But, applying ISO (International Organization for Standardization) can give organizations, and specifically procurement teams, the direction they need to ensure quality, safety, efficiency, and even compliance across industries and for both goods and services.

The stakes can be high, but the benefits of implementing ISO standards are often even higher.

In this episode, Philip Ideson explores the ins and outs of an ISO framework and how it can help a business improve their processes by following a set of internationally recognized best practices.

They discuss:

  • An overview of current ISO standards and how they have evolved
  • How organizations can apply ISO standards to achieve their sustainability goals
  • The differences between standards and certifications and how this impacts implementation
