Green Public Procurement Contracts Data

The world’s first global green procurement data specifically designated for ESG analysis

What is Green Public Procurement?

Green public procurement is a process whereby public authorities seek to procure goods, services and works with a reduced environmental impact throughout their life cycle. It also includes procedures where the supplier selection is primarily based on environmental criteria as opposed to other terms and conditions such as price and delivery times.

Green Contracts Detection

TenderAlpha.com has created a proprietary 3-pillar green tender detection methodology to pinpoint the awarding of environmentally-sustainable goods and services or contracts with green clauses in real time and historically (since 2010):

  • Green as per industry classification: purchasing of environmentally-friendly products and services according to the product category of the contract
  • Green as per combination of keywords: detecting the purpose of the contract by searching for specially selected combinations of keywords in tender documentation (based on technical reports and guidelines from the Buying Green handbook by the European Commission)
  • Green as per specific legislation and directives: defined by green procurement regulations and specific product environmental requirements and standards (wherever such legislation exists)
