Sustainable Procurement Dashboard
2020 -2023
The Province of Limburg aims to purchase socially responsible as much as possible in a professional, honest, reliable, transparent and uniform manner.
Three important themes play a role in the tendering and purchasing policy: regional business (economy), SROI (people) and sustainability (planet).
The aim is to strengthen Limburg’s innovative and competitive economy and to contribute to the sustainable development goals.
Sustainable procurment is a strong instrument to translate our policy goals in our own tenders: ‘Practise what you preach’. In 2020 the Provincial States adopted the Policy Circular Economy 2.0. Circulair procurement is an important focus area.
