You may have heard the term “sustainable procurement” before, but what exactly does it mean? Sustainable procurement is the process of procuring goods and services in a way that meets the needs of the present generation without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
Sustainability has long been a pressing issue on the minds of many socially conscious consumers and business owners alike, and for good reason – the planet’s ecosystem depends on it.
For vital industries like construction and manufacturing, the need to recognize and act upon the vast importance of sustainability is not only a sensible business decision but also a duty to the natural world.
Duncan Brock, Director of the Chartered Institute of Procurement and Supply and Shaun McCarthy OBE, Director of Action Sustainability, join a panel discussion on how best practice procurement can be a key element in tackling today’s sustainability challenges.
