| The purpose of green procurement promotion is to encourage public to make preferential purchase of the products or services that impose least impact to our environment. Products considered to be purchased shall be made from the material obtained from recycling, and thus achieve the goal of environmental protection. In 2007, the EPA started “Promotion of Public’s Participation in Green Consumption and Green Procurement”. Through powerful introduction of the EPA and local EPB, enterprises, especially the retailers will make preferential purchase of the green product and promote the selling of the green products. However, in the past, the local EPB reports the promotion result by paper documents and excel files. These paper documents create inconvenience in performance appraisal and data arrangement, and hardly understand the real progress of the promotion. Therefore, in the “administer management” area we created “Public’s Participation in Green Procurement”, “Public’s Green Procurement Reporting System”, “Public’s Reporting in Green Procurement Management System”, and “Public’s Performance Appraisal in Green Procurement”. These systems offer reporting functions to the local EPB and appraisal functions to the appraisal committee members. The Flowchart of Agency Reporting and Performance Appraisal of Green Procurement is shown in Figure 1. |
