Sustainable procurement is more than just a buzzword; it is a necessary paradigm shift in the way we approach procurement practices. By integrating sustainability principles into our procurement processes, Australian governments’ can reduce the nation’s environmental impact, promote ethical considerations, and foster social responsibility. Adopting a Sustainable Procurement Guide, government will set a powerful precedent for sustainable practices across industries, elevating collective efforts towards a more sustainable future.

The survey will cover various aspects of sustainable procurement, including current practices, challenges faced, and potential opportunities. Your candid responses will help shed light on the real-world implications of sustainable procurement and provide vital information for crafting a convincing argument for its widespread adoption.
Your participation will not only benefit our industry but also empower the government to make informed decisions that align with sustainable development goals. By joining forces and speaking up together, we can inspire change, amplify our influence, and contribute to a better, more sustainable world.
