This year, the Government has put in place a new procurement policy which underlines the UK\u2019s global leadership in tackling climate change.<\/p>
<\/strong><\/p> Prospective suppliers bidding for contracts above £5million a year must now have committed to the government\u2019s target of net zero by 2050 and have published a carbon reduction plan. Firms which fail to do so may be deselected from the procurement.<\/p> <\/strong><\/p> This policy supports the Government\u2019s plan to build back greener, by ensuring that potential government suppliers publish plans to reduce carbon emissions across their operations in order to bid for major government contracts.<\/p> <\/strong><\/p> In addition, \u2018Fighting Climate Change\u2019 is one of the priority themes of the government\u2019s Social Value Model, launched earlier this year. This enables departments to take environmental considerations, such as a reduction in carbon emissions, into account in the award of government contracts, where relevant.<\/p> <\/p>"}
