Demonstrate your commitment to reducing emissions, and improve your chances of success.
Are you aware the UK public sector’s net-zero objectives have an impact on procurement decisions? Do you want to ensure you never lose work because your environmental policies were not clear enough? We can help you demonstrate your commitment to Net-zero, and gain a competitive advantage in the process.
The UK government is working to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, a target which was made legally binding by the Climate Change Act 2008 (2050 Target Amendment) Order 2019. This has an impact on procurement, with a growing focus on sourcing more sustainable resources and working with carbon-conscious organisations.
As a result, suppliers with Carbon Reduction Plans (CRPs) are now seen as more attractive partners for public sector buyers.
The requirement for CRPs was introduced in 2021, and ensures central government and NHS tenders over £5m are awarded to suppliers with a commitment to sustainability. While they are not a requirement for lower-value tenders, CRPs can help you score higher points with buyers who have their own environmental objectives to consider.
CRPs are official documents which are approved by your board of directors (or equivalent management body) and made publicly available – to show your commitment to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050. They only need to be created once, and then updated annually thereafter.
Carbon Reduction Plans are significant documents, and there are very specific guidelines for creating them. Our team of consultants will support you in creating a plan that includes all the required details, and accurately represents your sustainability goals.
