Sustainable supply chain management integrates environmental and social considerations into operations, reducing negative impacts while enhancing business performance. It involves tools like supplier codes, audits, and collaboration, with companies such as Unilever, Coca-Cola, and IKEA leading by example. This approach is vital for mitigating risks and achieving long-term profitability.

Future audits will focus on continuous monitoring, risk-based approaches, and real-time insights. However, challenges in cybersecurity, data privacy, and auditor skill development will also shape the future of the field.
