Connected society

Embedding purpose and sustainability  throughout the product lifecycle

A tremendous shift in shopper sentiment has put social responsibility, environmental concerns, sustainability and healthy lifestyle choices into the mainstream. At a point when value is defined by more than cost and convenience, brands must identify and embrace their purpose and use their vision to differentiate in a crowded and hyper-competitive market.
 
Embedding social responsibility and environmental sustainability throughout the product lifecycle, including product development, material and supplier sourcing, inventory management, and logistics, is one way for consumer product companies to differentiate themselves in a crowded and hyper-competitive market.

      Business to planet: Consciously accelerating sustainability

      Business to Planet is Capgemini’s approach to sustainability. Our work is grounded in the idea that the short- and long-term needs of both the business and the planet are intrinsically connected. This means helping companies move past the idea that they must choose between purpose or business growth and instead find ways to create smarter solutions that meet the needs of the business, the consumer and the planet.

      We see the Business to Planet mindset as a new and important dimension of customer-centricity. It ensures that the organization can better serve its customers by protecting the environment and the communities that share it – and in so doing, also deliver a healthy, future-proofed organization.
