More about the product

PPN 06/21 (Procurement Policy Note 06/21) mandates that organisations must have a Carbon Reduction Plan in place to bid for central government contracts above a certain value (£5M). This policy underscores the importance of sustainability and carbon reduction in public sector procurement, ensuring that suppliers actively contribute to the UK's net-zero emissions target. TISCreport aggregates available reports found on the websites of your suppliers (and prospective suppliers if you use our Procurement Dash), so that you can ensure they prequalify for your tenders.
