Sustainability is something that all successful organisations must strive for if they are to survive. It is about satisfying current requirements in a way that does not compromise an organisation’s ability to operate effectively in future. Sustainable Procurement is an emerging approach to procurement in response to growing economic, social and environmental pressures resulting from the global sustainability debate.
