Summary
This document is a guide for suppliers on how to complete a Carbon Reduction Plan (CRP) in compliance with procurement requirements. It outlines the necessity for suppliers to submit a CRP detailing their carbon footprint and commitment to achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050. The guide specifies that the CRP must be tailored to the bidding entity and may include the parent organization under certain conditions. Suppliers are advised to establish their own CRP as soon as feasible and to update it regularly, with an emphasis on senior leadership approval to demonstrate commitment. The document also includes a template for the CRP, which requires information on baseline emissions, current emissions, and reduction targets. Furthermore, it discusses the importance of transparency and adherence to established reporting standards, including the GHG Reporting Protocol and SECR requirements. The guide concludes with a declaration section for sign-off by the supplier's management.
