Sustainable procurement is about considering the environmental, social and economic impacts of purchased goods and services. Through sustainable procurement your organisation can build resilience and become future proofed through increased efficiency and effectiveness.
In April 2017, the International organisation for Standardisation (ISO) released the world’s first ISO 20400 International Standard for Sustainable Procurement. ISO 20400 is designed to ensure that the procurement policies of organisations, both big and small, are robust and address sustainable supply chain issues.
