BEPI brings together businesses in a powerful network where tackling environmental issues in supply chains is supported through a practical framework.
WHAT IS BEPI?
The Business Environmental Performance Initiative (BEPI)
BEPI is a practical system that empowers companies to improve the environmental performance of their supply chain.
BEPI has developed a range of tools and services in collaboration with participating businesses and stakeholders to:
• Assess performance at factory level;• Support targeted improvement;• Gather and share key performance data; • Train management and workers; and• Track and measure progress.
From Risk to Opportunity
Businesses are and will continue to be called upon to address environmental issues, not only in their direct operations but also in their supply chains, with transparency and due diligence being key.
As a business, this means understanding the environmental risks facing your often complex supply chain and recognising those issues with the greatest impact and relevance to your stakeholders.

ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE AREAS
The BEPI self-assessment is the fi rst step in assessing environmental performance at producer level. It covers a comprehensive set of 11 Environmental Performance Areas and is based on the GSCP Environmental Reference Tools.
Environmental Management Systems
Energy Use, GHG and Transport
Water Use
Wastewater
Emissions to Air
Pollution Prevention and Chemicals
Major Incident Prevention and Management
Contaminated Land / Soil and Groundwater Pollution Prevention
Land Use and Biodiversity
Environmental Nuisances
Waste Management
PRIORITISE TO MAXIMISE
BEPI helps you and your supply chain shortlist the top fi ve environmental hot spots by location. This allows for focused efforts, increasing the impact of improvement activities.

1 – BEPI SELF-ASSESSMENT
Producers will complete their producer profi le and BEPI self-assessment online through the BEPI platform, providing comprehensive data across 11 environmental areas.
2.A – GAP ANALYSIS
Based on the answers given in the self-assessment, the BEPI platform provides a gap analysis showing strengths, weaknesses and level of environmental management.
2.B – PRODUCTION PROCESSES
Based on a detailed understanding of the on-site production processes, the main areas of potential impact are prioritised. The prioritisation method used is based on the International Reference Life Cycle Data System (ILCD) and highlights the four most relevant environmental areas per production process. A fi fth area – environmental management systems – is always included, since good management of environmental areas is a fundamental part of BEPI. An optional sixth area can be added.
3 – FOCUSED IMPROVEMENT
Taken together, the gap analysis and prioritisation process provides you with a shortlist of the most relevant environmental areas per producer, allowing all actors to focus on what is really important.
