Sustainable procurement by WSA partners 2buy2 creating a positive social impact
Welsh Sports Association (WSA) partners and procurement specialists 2buy2 are committed to promoting sustainability and ethical practices in all aspects of their business. From the suppliers they work with to the services they offer to clients, they prioritise sustainability and ethical considerations in the decision-making processes.
Supplier Selection Process
One of the key ways 2buy2 promote sustainability and ethical practices is by carefully selecting suppliers onto their frameworks and dynamic purchasing systems. They evaluate potential suppliers based on their environmental performance, labour practices, and community engagement. They prioritise suppliers who demonstrate a commitment to sustainability and who have a positive impact on the communities in which they operate.
Social value
Though it is not a legal requirement to include social value criteria in tenders, it is encouraged to use procurement to achieve wider financial and non-financial outcomes, including improving wellbeing of individuals, communities and the environment by making social value a decision-making criterion when awarding contracts.
At 2buy2, the aim is for all frameworks to deliver meaningful and community level outcomes. They have successfully launched several frameworks which have a very real social value benefit to organisations and the communities they serve.
Sustainable Products and Services
2buy2 integrate sustainability into the products and services they offer to their clients. For example, they advise clients on sustainable procurement practices, such as selecting suppliers based on their sustainability performance and considering the environmental impact of products and services.
2buy2 believe that sustainability and ethical practices are essential for a successful and responsible business. They are committed to promoting sustainability and ethical practices in all aspects of their business, from the suppliers they work with to the products and services they offer to our clients. 2buy2 believe that by leading the way in sustainable and ethical procurement practices, a more sustainable future for all is possible.
