10:55 LIFE CYCLE IMPACT: Beyond Environmental: Integrating Sustainability into Procurements Through a Life Cycle Approach

• Green purchasing today has a strong reliance on standards and labels. The government is developing guidelines to which all ecolabels would have to adhere before being used in the federal procurement process. This is part of the "current tense" approach to sustainable procurement.
• Industry has said completing a life cycle analysis for each product offered is too time consuming and costly. There are initiatives underway to complete product category LCA's. Understanding the major environmental impacts by product category and using this information in procurements is moving beyond labels.
• Balancing environmental, social and economic requirements is what integrating sustainability into procurements is all about. Product level LCA's, as well as systems thinking, is the way to get there.
