International Journal of Procurement Management (IJPM), Vol. 15, No. 4, 2022

Abstract: Economic, social and political developments in the EU, as well as budgetary constraints, have rendered reformation of Union Law on public procurement necessary. Green public procurement (GPP) is an important tool for achieving environmental policy objectives related to climate change, resource use and sustainable consumption and production. The literature regarding sustainable supply chains in the public sector is scarce and to the best of the authors' knowledge, there is none available on the implementation of GPP in Greece. The aim of this paper is the analysis of the Greek public sector's status in the field of GPP and the exhaustive recording of the implemented related cases. A cost-benefit analysis is performed in order to evaluate these good practices.
