BIVDA has received approval from NHSE on a letter that members can send to any NHS Customers in England who are using an alternative to the central Evergreen system as a way to monitoring supplier compliance with sustainability requirements.
The letter states “NHS England promotes the Evergreen Assessment as the single point of data collection and reporting for sustainability for the NHS to ensure one conversation with their Suppliers and to reduce the administrative burden on the NHS and Suppliers of multiple reporting requests.”
Whilst we believe that the incidents of NHS organisations using alternative systems is reducing, if you do require a copy of the letter template please contact beth.loudon@bivda.org.uk.
