Under this programme, Sanfield will establish a range of sustainability- related performance targets encompassing environmental, social, and governance (ESG) disclosure, safety performance, waste reduction, adoption of innovative technology, and carbon emissions reduction. By joining the SPS programme and meeting pre-determined sustainability- related targets, Sanfield’s suppliers and sub-contractors may get early payment from Sanfield, thereby improving their cash conversion cycle while enhancing their ESG performance. Desmond Tsoi, General Manager of Sanfield, said, “The sustainability- linked supplier payment services programme will encourage Sanfield’s suppliers to accelerate their transition to more sustainable construction practices. This will benefit all three parties: the environment, the industry and our construction partners.” 集 團旗下全資擁有附屬公司新輝（建築 管理）有限公司早前與星展銀行（香 港）有限公司聯手推出香港建造業界首個可 持續發展表現掛鈎供應商付款服務方案。 新計劃下，新輝會設立一系列可持續發展績 效目標，包括提升環境、社會和管治（ESG） 資訊的披露、加強安全表現、減少廢棄物、 採用創新技術以及減少碳排放。參與新方案 的供應商和承包商達成與可持續發展表現 掛鈎的預設目標後，可獲得新輝提前付款， 從而改善其現金循環週期，在提升ESG表 現的同時獲得經濟獎勵。 新輝（建築管理）有限公司總經理蔡旭文表 示：「推出開創性的可持續發展表現掛鈎供 應商付款服務方案將鼓勵新輝的供應商加 快綠色轉型，並創造一個讓環境、業界和建 築夥伴『三贏』的局面。」 17
