This guide for potential suppliers has been published to give an understanding of Responsible Procurement at Cornwall Council, in line with our Responsible Procurement Policy. It gives information and advice on how we promote Responsible Procurement in the purchasing of goods, works and services and what we expect from potential suppliers during the procurement process.

For Cornwall Council, responsible procurement means pioneering socially, environmentally and economically responsible procurement to deliver improved quality of life and better value for money for our people, our businesses and our County. Essentially, responsible procurement is good procurement.

The target group includes organizations preparing/ making state framework contracts in each Nordic country, political representatives, government officials, consumer and environmental agency officials, and others interested in GPP.
