Social and Sustainable Procurement
ARK Consult strongly embrace and encourage the adoption of social, economic & environmental factors, along side the necessary price and quality considerations in the handing of procurement processes and procedures. This belief is parallel to our philosophy that underpins Responsible Management Practices (RMP). Social and Sustainable Procurement matters as it diminishes risk and increases reputation with respect to strong and ethical supplier associations, cost savings in energy which allows a reinvestment back into the organisation. Consumers that are invested in sustainable businesses and practices can only enhance brand equity with their continued discernment and loyalty. Such practices also ensure a more sustainable procurement process which can mitigate market supply scarcity and shortages in the future.
Indigenous ProcurementThe global movement in toward uplifting socio-economic activity via procurement cannot be ignored. ARK Consult believe that both the private & government sector are poised to work together to enhance social capital via strong and collaborative alliances with all stakeholders. Our intent and credo are closely aligned with the Indigenous Procurement Policy (IPP) framework and resonates with our strongly held values centred in Responsible Management Practices (RMP). | Such an alignment between government, the private sector & ARK consult can result in improving social and economic outcomes for the wider community. It drives a more competitive and diverse market, enables greater innovation via new partnerships and service models and improve supply chain disclosures (stakeholders demand greater transparency around supplier diversity and better community outcomes). |
