Sustainable Procurement Tools

Delivery, Monitoring, and Reporting

Each contract included a site waste management plan, detailing how waste would be handled, reused, redistributed, or recycled. These plans were regularly monitored by the service department.

Community Benefits were tracked using a dedicated management system, ensuring commitments were delivered and recorded. The system sends regular reminders and allows for evidence to be submitted, reviewed, and approved which streamlines the monitoring process.
