"I have had multiple reasons to work with Steve and the team at PNZ Advisory and look forward to finding many more. As flexible as they are expert we have collaborated on everything from technical soultions to panel discussions and much in between. A highly valued quality is Steve's ability to say no to work as much as he says yes if he doesn't think he is the best fit, this prized attribute makes PNZ Advisory a collaborative partner I would give first refusal to every time."

About HP

HP Amplify Impact is a partner program launched by HP Inc. aimed at driving sustainability and social responsibility across its partner ecosystem, focusing on climate action, human rights, and digital equity.

Launched in February 2021, HP Amplify Impact is a ground breaking initiative designed to assess and train HP's partners in sustainability practices. The program encourages partners to align their business operations with three key impact pillars: Carbon Footprint, Human Rights and Digitial Equity

The Challenge

HP is a major player in the technology industry, being the world's second-largest personal computer vendor (by unit sales), holding around 20% of the global market alongside competitors like Dell and Lenovo. HP has net sales of >$50 billion per year and as such they have a significant environmental impact through the manufacturing and sale of their products through their 250,000 partners. This is why HP Amplify Impact was established. To support their partners to becoming more sustainable.

HP are operating in a sector that is facing increasing scrutiny from regulators, customers, and investors around the accuracy and credibility of greenhouse gas (GHG) disclosures. Their challenge is to minimise their own impact and that of their supply chain partners.

The Solution

HP Amplify Impact engaged with PNZ Advisory to support the development of the carbon footprint element of their programme. PNZ Advisory helped by developing a new framework to assist their partners, in addition to creating a new methodology to score and evaluate their submissions and acting as independent experts and advisors.

The Results

On completion of our work, the HP Amplify Impact programme was significantly improved with a clear methodology in place to support their 250,000 partners on the path to achieving Net Zero Carbon. Moreover, our work has enabled HP Amplify Impact to measure the effectiveness of its initiative.

As a direct result of our work, the HP Amplify Impact programme is making significant strides in reducing the carbon impact of its supply chain partners and providing the right support to enable them to see significant measurable changes within their businesses.
