flexible framework tool

Please try out our pilot self-assessment tool. It will help you to understand how your supply chain compares to the good practice recommended by the Sustainable Procurement Task Force. Please click the statements that you believe describe your organisation's sustainable procurement practice right now, then click continue. If none of the statements apply, leave them blank and continue.

Please select ALL statements that you believe describe your organisation's sustainable procurement practice right now, more than one if appropriate, then click continue.

The whole exercise will take no more than 5 minutes. At the end of the exercise we will ask for your contact details and feedback to enable us to develop a full version of this tool.
