What Biden's Green Federal Procurement Order Means for Jobs

Posted: Thursday, February 24, 2022 at 11:25 AM CST

New York, NY -- (SBWire) -- 02/24/2022 --Leading the way in green procurement was at the center of an executive order recently signed by President Biden. The order focuses on ensuring the government is using public procurement to model sustainable, environmentally-sound purchasing to reduce greenhouse gasses and other forms of pollution. The order also established long-term goals in targeted industries, such as electric power and water, and as a result sectors such as these are likely to see stricter federal procurement sustainability requirements. Implementing the order could affect federal contractors, and jobs, in many different ways. For example, suppliers may be asked to track greenhouse gas emissions traceable to the goods and services that are being purchased by the federal government. For those in construction jobs, there may soon be more emphasis on cleaner procurement and much tighter requirements in terms of green construction. Tracking and declaring the environmental costs of goods and services could be something the federal government asks of its contractors at any time.

The changing landscape of federal procurement can be challenging for those in procurement jobs. However, the team at DSJ Global is well placed to be able to provide expert support.
