Case Study: Polestar achieves a sustainable supply chain roadmap with BearingPoint

Polestar builds a 100+ initiative sustainable supply chain roadmap with BearingPoint

Polestar, a premium electric vehicle manufacturer, needed to align its supply chain in China with global sustainability goals and new local regulations. The company required a clear strategy to prioritize initiatives and integrate sustainable practices into its procurement and operations. They engaged the consulting firm BearingPoint for guidance on adapting their processes and KPIs.

BearingPoint implemented a four-step approach, analyzing Polestar's maturity and defining a strategic roadmap with over 100 initiatives. This included new processes and tools, like a sourcing decision matrix, to support data-driven supplier assessments. As a result, Polestar gained a unified vision and a comprehensive three-year plan. BearingPoint's solution enabled Polestar's supply chain to increase climate neutrality, circularity, and transparency, and to better challenge its own suppliers to adopt more eco-friendly practices.
