Navigating Net-Zero with Our Carbon Reduction Plan Development Services, Green Response

7th March 2024
Insights, Tenders

Are you aware of the impact the UK public sector’s net-zero objectives can have on your procurement decisions?

Don’t risk losing opportunities because your environmental policies aren’t clear enough. Let us help you showcase your commitment to net zero and gain a competitive advantage.

The UK government is on a mission to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, a legally binding target set by the Climate Change Act 2008 (2050 Target Amendment) Order 2019. This commitment is reshaping procurement, placing a strong emphasis on sustainable sourcing and partnerships with carbon-conscious organisations.

Now, suppliers equipped with Carbon Reduction Plans (CRPs) are viewed as more attractive partners for public sector buyers. As we, Tender Response help SME’s in all aspects for Public Sector Tendering, it will be no surprise to hear that we have an offering ready that does exactly what it says on the tin, Green Response.

Introduced in 2021, the requirement for CRPs ensures that central government and NHS tenders over £5 million are awarded to suppliers dedicated to sustainability. While not mandatory for lower-value tenders, having CRPs can significantly boost your standing with buyers who prioritise environmental objectives.

CRPs are official documents, approved by your board of directors (or equivalent management body) and made publicly available. This demonstrates your unwavering commitment to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050. They only need to be crafted once and updated annually thereafter.

Creating a robust Green Response involves adhering to specific guidelines. Our team of consultants is ready to assist you in developing a plan that includes all the necessary details, accurately reflecting your sustainability goals.

Why choose our Green Response development service?

  • We’ll help you authentically demonstrate your commitment to achieving Net Zero by 2050 for your UK operations.
  • Provide a detailed report on both your emissions and environmental management measures.
  • Ensure your CRP satisfies all requirements and is published correctly.
  • Enable you to tender for contracts with local and central government and NHS bodies.
  • Gain a competitive advantage for all other public sector contracts by showcasing a transparent commitment to sustainability.

Contact us today to discover more about our Green Response Services. Let us help you create a plan that not only aligns with your net-zero goals but also positions you for success in the public sector.

What our clients say about us

As a kind of small, medium business, tenders are very time consuming, can be quite arduous, potentially complex, and she cut through it all, making it very clear, concise, articulate, and helped us with our final submission in terms of writing the final draft, which basically allowed us to focus on selling our business, our services and USPs and the commercials into the template that was required and necessary for the project in hand. And happily to say, sort of 10 days later, our first using of Vicky's services, we won that tender.
