Industry session

Wednesday May 20th - 2:00 pm

Topic 1: Sustainable Procurement and Project Lifecycle

Sustainability is becoming a key requirement for projects and developments —from design and procurement to operation and end-of-life management. Direct and indirect emission, transport are two topics for which key performance indicators are today well identified. On the other end, procurement which contribute largely to green house gas emission is more difficult to manage. This session will explore sustainability issues during the full project lifecycle including procurement and discuss how industry can provide essential lifecycle information and ensure compliance.
