ISO 20400 Guidelines for Sustainable Procurement – Training Course

About the standard

MIBA LLC provides expert guidance on ISO 20400, the international standard for sustainable procurement. This framework empowers organizations to significantly improve their social, economic, and environmental performance. A 2023 study by EcoVadis confirmed that companies implementing sustainable procurement practices can reduce supply chain emissions by up to 30% and see a 15-25% increase in brand reputation among stakeholders, underscoring the standard's tangible value.

The guidelines cover core principles, integrating sustainability into corporate policy and strategy, and managing procurement risks and opportunities. Crucially, success hinges on the active engagement of stakeholders throughout the entire supply chain. According to the ISO itself, this inclusive approach is vital for ensuring sustainable procurement initiatives deliver measurable and lasting impact, driving continuous performance improvement.

Why is ISO 20400 important for you?

Driven by new regulations, the UN Sustainable Development Goals, and strong societal expectations, organizations face immense pressure to adopt sustainable practices. A 2022 McKinsey & Company report confirms this trend, noting that 83% of C-suite leaders believe ESG programs create shareholder value. This is where MIBA LLC's expertise becomes critical.
