The award-winning Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast that takes a deep dive into a compliance-related topic, literally going into the weeds to more fully explore a subject.

Looking for some hard-hitting insights on compliance? Look no further than Compliance into the Weeds!

In this episode, Tom Fox and Matt Kelly take a deep dive into a recent report by Prevalent on Third Party Risk Management in 2024 and Microsoft’s 2024 Environmental Sustainability Report.

Tom and Matt discuss the challenge companies face in aligning their sustainability goals with their supply chain management. They question whether sustainability functions within a company have the authority to influence supply chain decisions, such as rejecting suppliers that do not meet sustainability criteria.

We discuss the  Microsoft Report, noting that while the company acknowledges it has not yet achieved the ability to reject non-compliant suppliers, it suggests a target of improvement by 2030. The core issue highlighted is whether sustainability initiatives will have significant influence over supply chain decisions in the future.
