Our global purchasing power can positively influence and drive resilient, diverse, and responsible supply chains. We strive to ensure that our vessels receive the stores and spares to operate their vessels effectively and sustainably. Having the highest standards of safety, quality, technology, and availability is integral to the success of that strategy.
GenPro, a joint venture of BSM and Columbia Shipmanagement (Members) is a maritime procurement company which carries out the business of negotiating worldwide framework supply contracts on behalf of major ship managers, ship owners and ship operators.
It has recently established the Sustainability Scorecard, which comprises various parameters to measure our suppliers’ status, compliance, commitment, and performance towards sustainability.
We require our suppliers to get in line with our expectations and want to assist them in developing their own corporate responsibility strategies, policies, and processes. GenPro navigates our suppliers and Member representatives through a series of thought-provoking and guiding webinars as well as Q&A sessions looking deeper into GenPro’s sustainability requirements and processes.
