Discover the very latest thinking on sustainable procurement


Action Sustainability is a not for profit social enterprise registered as a Community Interest Company. Our aim is to continuously extend, lead and inspire sustainable procurement, by extending the boundaries of best practice. We provide consultancy, training, benchmarking, research, case studies and support. In addition, we support and facilitate the Strategic Supply Chain Group, a leading authority on sustainable procurement. We have also recently launched the Iceberg Group, a new membership organisation designed to enable you to benefit from year round access to the UK's leading practitioners of sustainable procurement.

The world's first standard for sustainable procurement, BS 8903: Principles and Framework for Procuring Sustainability, will be launched in Summer 2010. Shortly following the launch of BS 8903, a detailed guide on sustainable procurement for the construction industry will be published by CIRIA.

To help procurement professionals understand how to embed sustainability into their role, Action Sustainability has developed both foundation level and advanced level sustainable procurement training courses, using the principles recommended by BS 8903. We have also developed a sustainable procurement in construction training course, aligned to the principles recommended by BS 8903 and the CIRIA construction guide.
