The document specifies how SAP Ariba supports sustainability goals:
"The correct answers are:
B. By providing tools to track and manage environmental impacts
SAP Ariba (as part of SAP’s Spend Management suite) enables organizations to monitor and manage environmental data such as carbon emissions, certifications, and material traceability across procurement processes. These tools support more sustainable purchasing decisions and help meet ESG targets.
C. By fostering relationships with environmentally responsible suppliers
SAP Ariba Supplier Management allows businesses to identify, assess, and engage with suppliers who meet sustainability standards. This includes evaluating certifications, sustainability ratings, and integrating ESG criteria into supplier selection and onboarding."
Why the other options are incorrect:
A. Focusing on cost savings:"While cost efficiency is a benefit, it’s not the specific mechanism through which Ariba aligns with sustainability goals."
D. Prioritizing manual compliance measures:"SAP Ariba offers automated, integrated compliance tools—manual processes are not emphasized in its sustainability strategy."
