Why This Research Matters
Manufacturers are under growing pressure to deliver measurable progress, all while managing rising costs, regulatory complexity, and limited visibility across multi-tier supply chains.
According to Gartner, the biggest sustainability gains won’t come from acting alone. They will come from ecosystem partnerships that enable companies to share data, pool capabilities, and collaborate beyond organizational boundaries.
This research outlines how leading organizations are rethinking sustainability through partnership-driven models that reduce risk, lower carbon emissions, and accelerate progress toward net-zero commitments.
What You’ll Learn From the Gartner® Research:
- Why ecosystem partnerships are emerging as a critical enabler for tackling Scope 3 emissions
- How a build/buy/partner mindset helps organizations reduce sustainability costs
- The four-step framework Gartner recommends to prepare, build, and sustain successful sustainability ecosystems
- Real-world examples of companies collaborating across industries to drive systemic impact
