The healthcare sector has a substantial environmental and social impact. The NHS, aligning with its NetZero targets, acknowledges that integrating sustainability into procurement is crucial to reducing carbon emissions and the ecological footprint of its services.

As the Greener NHS Programme highlights:

“Climate change poses a major threat to our health as well as our planet. The environment is changing, that change is accelerating, and this has direct and immediate consequences for our patients, the public, and the NHS.”

Sustainability assessment involves ensuring a healthier planet for future generations. By incorporating sustainability into decision-making processes, healthcare organisations can reduce waste, optimise resource use, and drive positive social change, in line with global climate goals.

• Evaluate the carbon footprint, environmental and social impacts of healthcare initiatives, including products, operations, and projects.
• Forecast future environmental consequences to help you make informed, sustainable decisions that meet both current and long-term goals.

• Translate complex environmental assessments into clear, actionable findings that are easy to understand.
• Provide insights that seamlessly integrate environmental and economic objectives, supporting decisions that drive sustainability without compromising financial viability.

• Enable organisations to understand their current environmental state with robust, real-world data.
• Model future outcomes to identify sustainable solutions and implement strategies that promote long-term environmental health and operational efficiency.
