Our CEO David Shields has created a UK Government & Parliament Petition with the purpose of ensuring the amend the Procurement Bill 2022 to enshrine environmental considerations as a legally binding part of future procurement activity.

The petition is important for all , commercial and supply chain professionals across the public and private sector. The public sector influences contractual requirements across millions of suppliers within the public sector and hence has a trickle-down impact across all procurement function and procurement professionals.

By enshrining environmental considerations into the Procurement Bill, we can ensure a fundamental and critical shift in behaviour and obligations for all parties involved within public sector procurement and public spend is used in a manner that contributes positively to and our goals.

Sign the petition: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/621955

We will be working collaboratively over the coming weeks, laying out why it makes sense, from strategy, policy, financial and economic standpoints and support the Governments existing commitments.
