Green Procurement

Green Procurement is the integration of environmental performance considerations into the procurement decision-making process.

As a common service provider of procurement services, PWGSC's Acquisitions Branch supports Federal Departments and Agencies in meeting their green procurement targets mainly through the development of consolidated procurement instruments, which include environmental considerations and enable Departments and Agencies to purchase more environmentally preferable goods and services.

Set within the Acquisitions Branch of PWGSC, the Green Procurement Team of the Procurement Renewal Office has the mandate to coordinate and support the implementation of the Policy on Green Procurement within Acquisitions Branch (AB).
