The Challenge

Lack of Standardized Environmental Data in Healthcare Procurement

Healthcare procurement organizations are under increasing pressure to integrate sustainability into purchasing decisions while maintaining reliable supply chains. However, the absence of a harmonized methodology for measuring environmental impacts across pharmaceutical products has made it difficult to compare supplier data or identify lifecycle hotspots. Suppliers often report environmental metrics using different approaches, creating fragmented requirements and limiting trust in the results.

The Solution

Embedding PAS 2090 to Strengthen Environmental Transparency in Procurement

PAS 2090 provides a standardized lifecycle assessment methodology that enables measurement and reporting of the environmental impact of pharmaceutical products. In Norway’s procurement model, the standard is used to embed environmental data directly into tender documentation, encouraging suppliers to disclose product-level environmental information and validated carbon footprints. PAS 2090 supports more transparent evaluation, strengthens supplier engagement and enables procurement teams to incentivize continuous environmental improvement.
