The Challenge


Mid Essex Hospital Services wanted to;

  • Comprehensively measure and report on its supply chain environmental impacts in order to identify potential cost savings.
  • Demonstrate best practice against NHS environmental strategy.

 


The Solution


Trucost identified the Trust’s top 500 suppliers by greenhouse gas emissions and produced a comprehensive environmental analysis and strategic report for the Trust. This analysis compared performance across sites and highlighted opportunities for Mid Essex to reduce its environmental impacts and associated costs.


The Results


The Trust has achieved an NHS-first by reporting on all its key areas of environmental impact as prescribed by the NHS Sustainable Development Unit’s paper ‘Saving Carbon, Improving Health’. In addition Mid Essex is well placed to understand its risk exposure to carbon costs and has implemented a strategy for continued monitoring of its environmental impacts.
