Greenness Procurement Screening Checklist
Question
Yes
Is the piece of equipment selected rated as the most energy efficient of
the type of items needed and available?
Is the least possible packaging used?
Have field personnel or beneficiaries identified this item or service as
crit ical with a high likelihood of being used in during the disaster?
Does the item or service to be procured include recycled parts or
materials, and are these parts and materials more costly than alternate
items or services?
Can the item (and packaging) selected for procurement be reused or
recycled after it is no longer needed for the emergency?
Will the supplier take back, or can another business be sold the item and
recycle it, when it is no longer needed for the emergency?
Have alternate, environmentally friendly, energy sources been chosen
when they are economically justified and can be supported by local
capacities?
Do the items or services being procured require the lowest possible
energy for proper and safe use by disaster survivors?
