ISO 20400

Implement Sustainable Procurement Practices – Practical, Actionable, and Value-Driven 

ISO 20400 – Sustainable Procurement Guidance Consulting

If your organization wants to drive long-term value, manage supplier risk, and align with global sustainability practices, ISO 20400 guidance consulting is the solution. 

Important: ISO 20400 is a guidance standard, not a certifiable standard. Organizations cannot get “ISO 20400 certification.” Instead, it provides practical recommendations and frameworks to implement sustainable procurement effectively.
