NHS England Launch Evergreen Sustainable Supplier Assessment
NHS England has launched their Evergreen Sustainable Supplier Assessment tool.
The self-assessment questions enable suppliers to share their progress on their Net Zero journey, and sustainability process and plans.
Suppliers will be provided with a sustainability score which is measured against NHS priorities This is to provide an indication of their current status and also provides a progression pathway. It is not designed to be included as a cored or evaluated requirement in procurement.
The Evergreen Sustainable Supplier Assessment is intended to provide a single route for information and data sharing between suppliers and the NHS.
The Evergreen Sustainable Suppler Assessment is currently voluntary for suppliers to participate in.
You can find out more information on the NHS England website here including instructions on how to register on the portal and access the assessment.
Supplier drop-in sessions are being held by NHS England on the below dates.
