1a. Number of procurement and materiel management staff with formal green procurement training (e.g., C215 or in-house tailored alternative) relative to total number of procurement and materiel management staff.

1b. Number of acquisition cardholders with formal green procurement training (e.g., C215 or in-house tailored alternative) relative to total number of acquisition cardholders.

1a. Training for Procurement and Materiel Management Staff	40%	100%	Two contracting officers have received the Green Procurement Course being offered, which is part of the PG certification program.
1b. Training for Acquisition Cardholders	n/a	TBD	The Accounting Operations Unit is in the process of developing a new training package for Acquisition Cardholders, and green procurement will be incorporated into this training package.
2. Performance Evaluations	n/a	100 %	There is one position for the Manager of Contracting and Procurement, and one position for the Manager of Materiel Management. The second position reports to the Director, Finance and Administration Division. Green Procurement training will be incorporated into the 2010-2011 performance evaluations for both positions.
3. Procurement Processes and Controls	n/a	100 %	Infrastructure Canada uses standing offers that have green procurement considerations, however the current financial system does not have the ability to track and report the data. We have been advised by our service provider that the system will be upgraded in the new fiscal year which will allow procurement personnel to identify, track and report on green procurement.

Part B: Use of Green Consolidated Procurement Instruments

Performance Measures For Part B:

Dollar value of purchases against green consolidated procurement instruments (as designated by PWGSC) for a specified good or service relative to total dollar value of purchases for that good or service. Departments should include a minimum of 2 goods or services (e.g., IT Hardware, Imaging Devices, Paper).

When a green consolidated procurement instrument (as designated by PWGSC) is not used or is unavailable for the specified good or service, this performance measure should be used: Dollar value of purchases that incorporate environmental considerations for a good or service relative to total dollar value of purchases for that good or service. Departments should indicate when a green consolidated procurement instrument for a good or service (as designated by PWGSC) is not used.
