Win Contracts While Going Green With PPN

Net Zero Emissions

STAY COMPLIANT WITH THE UK'S NET ZERO EMISSIONS GOAL

With the implementation of PPN 06/21, it's more important than ever to ensure your company is calculating its carbon footprint.

Don't let carbon footprint calculations hold you back from securing government contracts. With PPN 06/21, it's now mandatory for companies to calculate their carbon footprint when bidding on central government or public contracts over £5 million per annum. From April 2024, it will be mandatory for all companies who are suppliers for the NHS. Our solution simplifies the process, ensuring compliance with the UK's Net Zero Emissions Goal by 2050.

Why Do I Need To Implement PPN?

4 ADDED BENEFITS OF PPN IMPLEMENTATION

01 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REDUCTIONS

By calculating and addressing carbon footprint, companies and organisations can identify opportunities to reduce emissions throughout supply chains and operations. This leads toa more sustainable and environmentally responsible approach to procurement.

02 COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE

Implementing PPN 06/21 not only demonstrates a commitment to sustainability but also enhances a company's competitive edge. Businesses that actively manage and reduce their carbon footprint are increasingly sought after by government entities and environmentally conscious consumers.

03 LONG-TERM COST SAVINGS

Focusing on carbon reduction can lead to long-term cost savings through improved resource efficiency, educed energy consumption, and optimised supply chain practices. By incorporating sustainable procurement practices, companies can drive innovation, increase operational efficiency, and lower overall costs.

04 CONTRIBUTION TO NATIONAL CLIMATE GOALS

PPN 06/21 ensure that public procurement practices align with the UK's National Climate goals. By collectively working towards achieving Net Zero Emission, companies and organisations play a vital role in combating climate change and building a sustainable future.

Compliance

ENSURE COMPLIANCE WITH PPN 06/21

With PPN 06/21, you can ensure compliance with government regulations while also reducing your carbon footprint. Measure Scopes 1 and 2 of your carbon emissions in full and quantified the required Scope 3 categories to stay aligned with the UK's Net Zero Emissions Goal by 2050.

Back in September 2021, the NHS England Public Board approved a roadmap to help suppliers align with the net zero goals from now until 2030. Below is a detailed supplier roadmap to net zero.

From April 2022:

NHS procurements will include a minimum 10% net zero and social value weighting. The net zero and social value guidance for NHS procurement teams will help unlock health-specific outcomes.

From April 2023:

All contracts above £5 million per annum, the NHS will require suppliers to publish a Carbon Reduction Plan for their UK Scope 1 and 2 emissions and a subset of Scope 3 emissions as a minimum. The Carbon Reduction Plan requirements for the procurement of NHS goods, services, and works guidance outlines what will be required of suppliers and how it will be implemented.

From April 2024:

The NHS will extent the requirement for a Carbon Reduction Plan to cover all procurements.

From April 2027:

Suppliers will be required to publicly report targets, emissions and publish a Carbon Reduction Plan for global emissions aligned to the NHS net zero target, for all of their Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions.

From April 2028:

New requirements will be introduced overseeing the provision of carbon foot printing for individual products supplied to the NHS. The NHS will work with suppliers and regulators to determine the scope and methodology.

From April 2030:

Suppliers will only be able to qualify for NHS contracts if they can demonstrate their progress through published progress reports and continued carbon emissions reporting through the Evergreen sustainable supplier assessment.

Testimonials

DON'T JUST TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT

“This is by far the most useful and practical course I have been on and has been the deciding factor in our actual implementation of a business carbon assessment. This is because it has given us the correct details on how to actually go about doing the calculation, rather than just why it is important. We now have the knowledge in our company to continue with this work and improve our performance.”

Maggie FennellR&D Environment and Education Manager

“Tunley Environmental were very efficient from start to finish of our project. For our team, it was very new and untouched territory going into the sustainable, carbon neutral world but our engineers were very patient at explaining the different scopes and what was required from us to reach our sustainable goal. They are stuck to our timelines so we were able to show off the hard work we had put in during our awards presentation, the day after we had our final meeting. As a company we will be doing more projects under carbon neutral banner so would be willing to use Tunley Environmental again to make this happen.”

“It w an absolute pleasure to work with Tunley Environmental right from the quotation stage to the final presentation. Everything was explained perfectly and all questions answered.”

Rachel MarshallPurchasing Manager

“At Sound United, one of our core values is that 'Our Obligation is Bigger than Us'. When implementing ESG, we needed to understand our baseline for carbon footprint in order to understand how we could reduce our impact on the environment. Tunley Environmental's knowledgeable team of professionals knew what we were looking to do, and worked quickly with our global team to gather and analyse our data. Throughout the process, they were easy to work with and on time on their delivery schedule. I highly recommended Tunley's service.”

Leeanne SchererSR. Director of Global Service Operations

“Tunley Environmental has been great support through our carbon assessments. Torill completed an embodied carbon report on one of our products, we used the embodied carbon report and submitted to MAKE UK sustainability regional awards and won for our region. Great to be working with Tunley and the team and look forward to reaching our goal of net zero which I know we can with the support and expertise of the team.”

Scott CommonsHSQE Manager

“The COVID-19 pandemic has demonstrated how the unimaginable can change the world overnight. Human-made climate change has the same potential to impact our world and requires the right decisions and urgent action now. Optima Products Ltd has committed to achieving net zero GHG emissions in its own operations by 2035, as a manufacturer this will necessitate significant changes. We have therefore engaged with Tunley Environmental to partner us in delivering this commitment.”

Christian MabeyManaging Director

“I'm very grateful to Tunley Environmental for their professional and thorough approach to our business and product assessment. We brought some complicated and novel requirements and they tackled these with enthusiasm, including tackling novel research. I would highly recommend them to anyone requiring a carbon assessment.”
