Strategies / Comments

  1. Approach:
    • The HMIRC's Financial Policy and Operations Division is responsible for addressing all aspects of the Policy on Green Procurement.
  2. Management Processes and Controls:
    • In 2012-2013, PWGSC procurement instruments will be used as the HMIRC's primary procurement mechanism when feasible.
    • The HMIRC procurement and material management specialists will continue to review and modify internal policies and strategies to ensure environmental considerations are being integrated into the procurement and disposal process.
  3. Setting Targets:
    • The HMIRC will ensure that 60% of all purchases are made through PWGSC green consolidated instruments, where available.
  4. Meeting Targets:
    • The green procurement strategies established will be reviewed on a regular basis to ensure that we are on board to achieve them by end of fiscal year 2012-2013 and report on these targets in the Departmental Performance Report (DPR).
  5. Training:
    • All procurement specialists at the HMIRC will take the Canada School of Public Service online Green Procurement (C215E) course.
    • Senior management will also increase staff awareness of environmental issues, such as limiting the number of printed copies of documents to only what is necessary and using two-sided printing and copying where feasible.
  6. Performance Evaluations:
    • In 2012-2013 the Director Financial Policy and Operations will have an objective included in his performance management agreement to ensure environmental considerations are taken into account in all procurement activities.
