Improving Procurement Using a Balanced Scorecard Approach

Environmental sustainability embraces ideas about the planet's ability to respond to the impact of modern life.

Impacts such as climate change, the ongoing availability of material resources and water, toxicity, and waste and recycling volumes are of particular concern as we pursue a circular economy approach; keeping materials in the economic system and not wasting them at end of life. Maintaining and enhancing biodiversity and natural capital are also increasingly relevant to construction projects.
