Imagine that in 10 years, we looked back and realized that we wasted the greatest opportunity to speed up the climate transition where the most was to do so: in public purchases.
In a global context where sustainability is a unavoidable priority, sustainable public purchases emerge as a strategic instrument to boost a more green, resilient and innovative economy. Public entities, as agents with a high purchasing power, play a determining role in the adoption of practices that promote energy efficiency, the reduction of carbonic footprint and the stimulus to the circular economy.
The question that is imposed is clear: Are the current leaders and public decision makers the protagonists of this transformation or will it be up to their successors to lead this process?
Eco360: A strategy for the future of public purchases
The strategy ECO360 It aims to redefine how public entities generate their acquisition processes, placing sustainability at the center of decision making. The integration of ecological and social criteria in public purchases not only contributes to the objectives of decarbonization, but generates long -term economic benefits, promoting suppliers committed to responsible practices.
For this approach to produce concrete effects, it is essential that public administrations adopt a firm commitment to hiring models that privilege sustainable solutions.
CO₂ Performance Ladder: a differentiation and impact tool
One of the most effective methodologies for promoting sustainable public purchases is CO₂ Performance Ladder, a certification system that encourages companies and public entities to implement concrete measures to reduce their carbon emissions.
The impact and effectiveness of this approach are widely recognized internationally. CO₂ Performance Ladder is considered a GPP (Green Public Procurement) best practice By reference organizations such as the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and the World Economic Forum (WEF). Its adoption in public hiring processes not only contributes to the fulfillment of environmental goals, but also positions municipalities and other public entities in the forefront of sustainable innovation.
Recognizing the importance of CO₂ Performance Ladder as a strategic tool for decarbonization, Allies Consulting is committed to sharing technical and methodological knowledge with public entities interested in integrating this approach into its acquisition processes.
Through a dedicated and free training program, it is intended to provide participants with the skills necessary to lead this paradigm shift, promoting a more sustainable public hiring, effective and aligned with current climatic challenges, ensuring successful CO₂ Performance Ladder integration in their processes and policies.
Leadership Opportunity: Who assumes the commitment?
The moment to act is now. Current public purchases have the opportunity to position their organizations as references in the implementation of sustainable strategies, capable of leaving a legacy with real impact on communities and the planet.
