Client network for a climate-neutral construction sector

Purpose and goal:

The purpose has been to support public clients in the work to reach a climate-neutral construction sector through procurement that promotes innovation. Spread knowledge about new innovations (products, services, working methods, etc.) and thereby speed up dissemination, implementation and utilization.

Orderers strengthen their ordering competence A strengthened actor collaboration, early dialogue between orderers and actors that creates sustainable solutions Expected results and effects:

- Established network where dialogue between clients and actors in the market takes place. Among other things, documentation for ADDA (operational support to the public sector) for upcoming framework agreement procurements.

- Strengthened competence regarding the procurement of climate-neutral facilities. Among other things, concrete work with procurement documents and criteria. - Spread reference case that validates the durability and quality of a new solution in construction projects. - Strengthened international contact through Anglian Water

Approach and implementation:

The network has had 10 network meetings and around twenty team meetings. The setup has been digital two-hour meetings (which is highlighted as an important success factor by the participants), apart from a network meeting which was a physical meeting at one of the clients. The participants have appreciated both forms (short digital meetings) and content. (various themes e.g. VA, climate-neutral concrete, etc.).
