4 Why is purchasing important in ISO 26000 ?
Purchasing is a major « sphere of influence » in public and private organizations Purchasing is objectively a priority in the implementation of any social responsibility policy For example, GDP in OECD countries is mostly made of inter- companies exchanges via decisions made by the purchasers Income statements of big companies show that purchasing can represent a great part of the turnover Public procurement of OECD countries is about 9% of the country’s GDP Is a SR policy which does not take into account sustainable purchasing credible ?
