Sustainable procurement and tendering

By using your purchasing power to demand products and services that are produced responsibly and have a lower environmental and climate impact than comparable alternatives, you, as a procuring organisation, can help promote and support a more sustainable market.

A sustainable procurement and tendering strategy can be a powerful tool for any company wishing to contribute to the green transition. Sustainable procurement can also play a key role in achieving your organisation’s own environmental and sustainability goals – from reducing your climate footprint to ensuring social responsibility.

At Norion, we have decades of experience advising on sustainable procurement both in Denmark and internationally. Over time, we have developed a comprehensive toolbox for sustainable procurement, which includes the development of procurement strategies and policies, the formulation of sustainable procurement criteria, and a process and anchoring model that helps integrate sustainability as a natural part of your company’s procurement process.
