The government's Procurement Policy Note PPN 06/21 underscores the importance of sustainability in public procurement.

From April 2024, bidders for all contracts with the NHS will be required to not only measure and report their carbon footprint but to also develop and communicate a robust plan for reducing it.

Meeting these standards isn't just a one-time request either, but rather an annual obligation to ensure your sustainability efforts are continuous and in line with the overarching aim of lowering emissions in public supply chains.

Expert Support for Navigating PPN21/06

Navigating the complexities of PPN21/06 means accurately measuring and reducing carbon emissions. For many businesses, especially those without a dedicated environmental team, this can seem a daunting task. The most practical and efficient solution? Partnering with our carbon audit team at RfM Transform. Our support ensures your compliance and simplifies the entire process. Working with us means your business can keep its focus on core activities while seamlessly meeting sustainability standards.

With our Carbon Action Programme (CAP), we offer expert guidance to clarify and effectively manage your carbon compliance obligations:

  • Measure Your Carbon Emissions: Understanding and accurately assessing your current carbon footprint is the first step towards making impactful changes.
  • Reduce Your Carbon Footprint: With our guidance, you can identify and implement strategies to reduce your carbon impact, ensuring continuous improvement and compliance with PPN21/06's ongoing requirements. From “quick wins” to offsetting and larger recommendations.
  • Lessen Your Environmental Impact: Beyond compliance, our audit helps you contribute positively to environmental sustainability, enhancing your company's reputation and appeal to eco-conscious consumers and partners.
  • Comprehensive Support: From understanding your business’s environmental impact to advising on best practices and offsetting, RfM Transform works with you at every step. Whether it's through direct action or strategic planning, our goal is to make managing your climate impact simpler and cost-effective.
  • Stay Ahead: With demands for sustainability increasing from end customers, government, and supply chain partners, our CAP positions you ahead of the curve. Not only do we help you meet current requirements, but we also prepare you for future expectations, turning compliance into a competitive advantage

The RfM Transform Carbon Action Programme is designed to demystify the process of emissions reduction, offering straightforward, cost-effective solutions.
