The European Commission’s directorate general (DG) for Environment has commissioned a study to examine the feasibility of supporting a European green public procurement (GPP) network to exchange good practice. The study will identify and evaluate existing GPP networking activities and propose ideas for how these can be built upon at European level.

The development of such a network is one of the actions called for under the European Resource Efficiency Platform, a high-level group set up to guide European policymakers in transitioning to a resource-efficient economy. The initial step of the study, which is being carried out by Public Procurement Analysis, is a short survey.

The survey has been designed to take no longer than 10 to 15 minutes, and comprises ten questions. It will be followed up with targeted interviews and a webinar to present and discuss findings. Responses are requested by Monday 3 November 2014.
