Greening Government Operations (GGO)

Mandatory reporting on meeting the requirements of Section 7 of the Policy on Green Procurement, as applicable to departments and agencies bound by the Policy on Green Procurement but not the Federal Sustainable Development Act, should be reported here.

Strategies / Comments

1. Approach: The Department’s approach to implementing green procurement is to target the use of PWGSC procurement instruments, the delivery of training to key personnel and the inclusion of green procurement objectives in the employee performance evaluations of key decision makers.

2. Management Processes and Controls: The Agency uses PWGSC procurement instruments as its primary procurement mechanism and leverages the environmental considerations incorporated into these standing offers by PWGSC. Furthermore:
   • In 2012-13, the Department’s procurement and materiel management policies will be reviewed to ensure environmental considerations are integrated;
   • Since 2010-11, the Federal Electronic Waste Strategy is followed by the Department for electronic and electrical equipment; and
   • The Statement of Work templates used for contracting for services and the contract review checklist will be reviewed in 2012-13 to identify opportunities to include environmental considerations.

   These management processes and controls were selected through an analysis of the Agency’s decision-making processes and controls.

3. Setting Targets: In addition to commitments identified in ii., iv., and v., the department has the following target:
   • Ensure to buy only recycled paper and reduce by 5% the total amount of paper used by the Agency.

   This target was selected through an analysis of the Department’s spend, in consideration of the Department’s mandate and the nature and risks of the Department’s purchases.

4. Training: The Agency will ensure that all existing procurement and materiel management functional specialist staff  take the CSPS course C215 by the end of the fiscal year (2 employees in total). The Department will also require that all new functional specialist staff take CSPS course C215 within three months of being hired.

5. Performance Evaluations: This fiscal year the Agency will ensure that an objective to take environmental considerations into account for all procurement activities is included in the performance management agreement of each manager of procurement functional specialists (1 manager total).

6. Meeting Targets: The Department will report against these targets in the Departmental Performance Report.

Upcoming Internal Audits and Evaluations over the next three fiscal years

Upcoming Internal Audits

The Agency has no plans to undertake any internal audits over the next three fiscal years.  The Agency will participate in one or more Small Departments and Agencies horizontal audits undertaken by the Office of the Comptroller General (OCG). The Agency also expects to be selected for a core control audit in the next three fiscal years.  The Agency's Internal Audit Advisory Committee assesses the Agency's audit requirements, reviews OCG horizontal audit findings and recommendations, and directs and oversees implementation of corrective actions.
