Fighting climate change

We’ve committed to Net Zero 2030, backed by our environment strategy, aligned to the 1.5-degree pathway, and approved by the Science Based Targets Initiative. And introduced an internal carbon price. A self-imposed tax that’s applied to our energy use and business travel. Bringing the cost of our carbon emissions back to us to fund decarbonisation projects. Initiatives have inspired our staff and gained us a top 2% Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) A Rating, Platinum EcoVadis medal and Environmental Management (ISO 14001) and Energy Management (ISO 50001) certification.
During contract delivery we will:

‒ Encourage our suppliers to report their carbon data to CDP, helping us to measure and encourage progress and remain on their Supplier Engagement Leader board. Reducing pollution through our supply chain.

‒ Facilitate a ‘fighting climate change’ 90-minute session and create a team charter to agree:

o Traveling SMART | Minimising travel for those involved in the contract and measuring and monitoring all contract related business travel and carbon emissions using our proprietary KPMG carbon tracker tool.

o Living sustainably at home | Managing home office equipment efficiently and avoiding printing.

o Adopting a ‘digital first’ approach | Using collaborative technologies for data storage/ sharing to maximise effectiveness and reduce email volume.

Reducing travel, power consumption, and paper usage to minimise emissions and support sustainable behaviours.

‒ Host a 60-minute sustainability impact modeller tool demonstration. Helping reduce your carbon footprint of cloud deployments using bespoke tooling to optimise implementation.

‒ Monitor, measure, and report commitments using the Social Value Portal. An evidence-based, data-driven tool, underpinned by the National Themes, Outcomes and Measures framework. It’s endorsed by the Local Government Association and compatible with all major ESG frameworks. Bringing rigour to commitments tracking and allowing you to flex and value the impact and hold us accountable.

Covid-19 recovery

The pandemic accelerated changes in the way we work, forcing us to adapt to ensure rapid recovery. Office space has been transformed for innovation, collaboration, and convening between our colleagues, clients, networks, and local communities.

Contract specific commitments:

‒ Welcome those who have not been able to join the workforce previously to play an active role e.g., those who couldn’t spend much time away from home due to caring commitments, those with great distances to travel to an office, or those with a disability which precludes travel. Creating a more diverse workforce.

‒ Host a 60-minute future of work session to share our latest thinking. Including, helping you to consider how innovative technologies can support some of the hardest aspects of change to achieve and sustain high performance and nurture creativity.

Generating additional paths to employment for people from lower socio-economic backgrounds and bolstering future skills in the UK. Practical work experience is gained while working towards professional qualifications/ accreditations and earning a salary.

‒ Create business opportunities for a range of local suppliers such as entrepreneurs and start-ups. By encouraging our 1,800 active suppliers to use local sourcing in their supply chain. For example, for our national catering contract we expect the supplier to source produce locally, supporting local producers and reducing food miles. Our sustainable procurement policy is supporting SMEs and VCSEs via various initiatives e.g. the prompt payment code.
