SPP Guidelines: Integrating Sustainability Criteria for LEDs into Public Procurement Procedures

SPP implementation in Vietnam will contribute directly to the SCP objectives defined by the Government of Vietnam in its National Action Plan for Sustainable Consumption and Production3 (January 2016). According to the Action Plan, SCP aims to transform production and consumption towards greater resource and energy efficiency, promote renewable material and energy sources; reuse, reduce, and recycle waste; and maintain ecological sustainability throughout the product life cycle -- from exploitation, input material, supply, production and processing, distribution, consumption, and disposal. In line with these SCP objectives, implementation of SPP will promote sustainable consumption and production practices through the prioritized acquisition of sustainable goods, works and services by public entities.
