Centralized Climate Strategy for One of Australia's Biggest Retailers

The Challenge

We are a large Australian retailer that wants to align its climate teams under a single strategy to ready itself for the next generation of sustainability requirements. We originally created our climate change team early in 2021, however it has become clear that a comprehensive climate strategy is needed to connect multiple programs and teams on a single goal.

ADAPTOVATE and the retailer brought all five of the sustainability programs into a single platform. This helped deliver on three central climate ambitions:

• The platform created a single overarching sustainability strategy and message to present across the organisation and to the broader community
• The new platform optimized the sharing of core capabilities among team members working on similar climate problems throughout the organisation
• The centralized sustainability resources were more efficiently prioritized and assigned to the highest value
