Table 3: Green Procurement



This table charts green procurement planning.
Green Procurement
1. How is your department planning to meet the objectives of the Policy on Green Procurement?
  Library and Archives Canada (LAC) has an ecological checklist of considerations applicable throughout the life cycle of goods. This list is posted on the LAC intranet site and is referred to during the mandatory training given to the organization's administrative officers and managers. The checklist includes other public- and private-sector sites offering sound environmental practices.

Major purchases play an important role in terms of environmental considerations. Emphasis is placed on using recycled and remanufactured products, and on remanufacturing current furnishings and equipment to reduce the amount of surplus materials and thereby minimize environmental impacts.

The estimates prepared for purchasing laboratory equipment contain features to reduce environmental impacts, either through the use of recycled or recyclable materials, or the use of the least harmful chemicals possible.

As part of its ecological practices, LAC introduced mandatory double-sided printing in the fall of 2008 for all its network printers, resulting in a decrease in paper consumption. In addition, LAC stocks recycled paper for everyday use.
2. Has your department established green procurement targets?
      In progress
3. Describe the green procurement targets that have been set by your department and indicate the associated benefits anticipated.
  Since most of our procurement activities involve professional services rather than goods, LAC's objectives are more qualitative than quantitative. Emphasis is placed on more thorough procurement planning, and we ensure that environmental considerations are an integral part of the procurement process.
