Build your NHS supplier foundations.
Start with 0 → 1 for your carbon footprint, Carbon Reduction Plan and Level 1 evidence. Agree any wider tender documents around your buyer’s requirements.
NHS procurement increasingly expects suppliers to demonstrate sustainability commitments. Whether you are bidding for a framework, responding to a Selection Questionnaire or simply preparing for the conversations ahead, sustainability credentials are becoming a standard part of doing business with the NHS.
For many smaller businesses, this can feel overwhelming. You do not have a dedicated ESG or sustainability team. You are running a business and trying to navigate requirements that feel complex, technical and time-consuming. Understanding what the NHS actually expects, and what is proportionate for an organisation your size, takes time you may not have.
Start with the evidence your buyer needs. Add wider documents where relevant to your business and tender.
Build around your requirements
Your Carbon Reduction Plan is the foundation. Wider documents and review work are agreed within the scope.
Carbon Reduction Plan
A practical Carbon Reduction Plan aligned with PPN 006 and the NHS requirements relevant to your procurement. Clear, publication-ready and proportionate to your operations.
Modern Slavery Statement
A proportionate statement where required by applicable legislation or your buyer, tailored to your business and supply chain. This is not a universal additional Level 1 requirement for every supplier.
ESG Objectives
A simple, practical ESG framework with clear objectives across environmental, social and governance areas. Designed to be achievable, not aspirational.
Free initial review
An independent assessment of where you stand against NHS Evergreen requirements, with clear priorities and a realistic path forward.
