Greening Government Operations (GGO)

1. Approach: As detailed below, the Transportation Safety Board of Canada's (TSB) approach to greening its operations is to ensure green considerations are incorporated in its procurement and disposal practices and that key personnel are trained and evaluated on green objectives.
2. Management Processes and Controls:
   • The TSB uses Public Works and Government Services Canada's (PWGSC) procurement instruments as its primary procurement mechanism and leverages the environmental considerations incorporated into these Standing Offers and Supply Arrangements by PWGSC.
   • The TSB will continue to follow the Federal Electronic Waste Strategy for the disposal of electronic and electrical equipment.
   • In 2012-13, the TSB's procurement and contracting policy and procurement guidelines will be reviewed to ensure that environmental considerations are incorporated.
   • The Request for Proposal, Request for Goods and Services and Service Contract templates will be reviewed in 2012-13 to identify opportunities to include environmental considerations in solicitation and contractual documents.
3. Setting Targets: The TSB has set the following targets:
   • 90% (on a dollar value basis) of TSB purchases of goods that are available on Standing Offers and Supply Arrangements will be made through these PWGSC procurement instruments.
   • All TSB procurement and material management personnel will receive green procurement training.
   • All procurement and material management personnel will have green procurement objectives in their performance agreements.
4. Meeting Targets: The Department will report against these targets in the Departmental Performance Report.
