Sustainable procurement
Anchoring social-ecological criteria in procurement.
Germany’s public sector spends over 400 billion Euros annually on procurement, with federal and state governments accounting for roughly half of this expenditure, and local authorities responsible for the remaining half. If municipalities aim to address societal challenges and fulfil their commitment to the common good within their sphere of influence, aligning procurement with social and ecological criteria can contribute to an energy- and resource-efficient, climate-just and humane future. There are opportunities to integrate socio-environmental criteria at every stage of the procurement process.
Strategically embedding ecology and human rights – striving for more impact, transparency and responsibility throughout the entire supply chain.
- We identify current engagement and potential of sustainable procurement along the central areas of action.
- We advise and inform you on socio-environmental criteria as well as seals of approval for municipal product groups and services.
- We collaborate with you to define clear, actionable sustainability goals for your procurement processes.
- We help you integrate these goals and strategies into the broader political framework, while providing support for effective communication.
