ESG contractual clauses & sustainable procurement

A recent trend for companies and public actors to reach ESG objectives is to include ESG contractual clauses in contracts or procurement procedures. ESG considerations can be integrated into contractual relationships in many sectors, ranging from energy to financials, materials, real estate and utilities. Such clauses can take on various forms and can have different objectives, such as fostering sustainable land use, auditing water usage in supply chains, including a net-zero standard, promoting renewable energy in supply contracts, transparent sourcing, incorporating circular economy principles, to name a few. Based on partnerships with broad databases of relevant template providers, our experienced team can tailor ESG clauses to your specific needs.
