Supply Chain and Deliveries

Strive to incorporate environmental and social considerations into your business/organisations procurement processes and reduce the carbon emissions resulting from your deliveries

What you can do:

• Consider energy/environmental performance in procurement decisions.
• Consider near-term supply chain changes and longer-term supply chain ambitions
• Require contractors to meet environmental standards as part of contracts.
• Participate in a freight consolidation scheme or consolidate your own deliveries.
