The Skanska Supply Chain Green Solution Award 2011

It’s back…Skanska’s continued search for green solutions from our supply chain. Once again we’re looking for innovative, inspirational products or ways of working to support our ambition to be the leading green project developer and contractor in the UK.

Open to all current and prospective members of Skanska’s supply chain we are looking for green solutions with the potential to be incorporated into our future projects. Solutions must achieve one or more of the following:

• Minimize Energy Consumption
• Use alternative, renewable energy sources
• Reduce embodied carbon
• Reduce material waste
• Eliminate the use of hazardous substances
• Reduce potable water consumption

The winning entry will be invited to Skanska’s annual Environment, Health & Safety and Caring award ceremony later in the year to collect the award. This will result in significant internal and external promotion of the green solution.

What counts as a Green solution?

To qualify for the award, the Supply Chain Green Solution must:

• Be a product or process that is directly applicable to a construction project
• Have a strong business case, providing both environmental and economic benefits to our customers
• Have been used successfully at least once (not necessarily on a Skanska project)
• Be transferable to Skanska

What doesn’t count as a Green Solution?

That means, unfortunately, we cannot accept the following as green solution:
• A construction project
• An internal company process
• A research project
• An untested concept or prototype
