Action Sustainability have been at the forefront of sustainable procurement and supply chain management since 2006 and are recognised global leaders. We developed the BS 8903 standard and led the Australian and UK delegations to develop international standard ISO 20400 for Sustainable Procurement, published in 2017.
In 2013 Action Sustainability, along with our partners, received a number of awards including the ‘CIPS Best Contribution to Corporate Responsibility’ award as well as the ‘Overall CIPS award’ for the Supply Chain Sustainability School. We are CIPS recommended consultants for sustainable procurement services.
We provide advice, services and tools that will enable you to embed sustainable procurement principles across your organisation and into your supply chain, allowing you to benefit from improved sustainability performance and brand value together with reduced risks and costs.
The image below shows the structure of the ISO 20400 standard (click to expand).
If your organisation is still grappling with what sustainable procurement is, or needs technical or on the ground support to embed sustainable outcomes into strategies, tenders or contracts or you just want to validate that the direction you are going in is the right one we have a service that can support you.
