GREEN PUBLIC PROCUREMENT

Guidance for the Public Sector

Summary: This guidance and accompanying criteria support the inclusion of
sustainable and green practices into public sector procurement procedures. They
are aimed primarily at public sector procurers in central and local government,
state agencies and other public bodies such as universities, hospitals and
schools. They are also relevant for utility sector procurers and may be of
interest to private companies whether they are responding to tenders or applying
green criteria in their own procurement.
