Barkers are a leading ethical procurement consultancy and sister company, BWS, offers professional bid writing services. Being certified carbon neutral has been a key priority for our businesses as we strive to lessen our environmental impact and uphold the values and principles that are intrinsic to both Barkers and BWS.
A focus on sustainability builds on our promise to deliver social value – Barkers are three times award winners in recognition of our social value work – and we are committed to empowering our clients to actively embed social value into their core procurement practice. In addition, our team offer pro bono commercial advice to charitable and non-profit organisations with responsible and sustainable procurement being at the heart of our message.
Our BWS team are highly knowledgeable on the importance of social value when tendering for bids. They actively support clients to consider ways in which their business can deliver responsible and sustainable solutions as part of their bid, offering added value that extends wider than the realms of the organisation.
Barkers and BWS believe in the power of education and the transfer of knowledge to support a more sustainable world. So we will pledge to become a Carbon Literate Certified supplier, educating not only our team to lessen their environmental impact, but also supporting our suppliers with contracting to improve their carbon footprint. Together we believe we can make a positive impact on the planet.
