Dear Sir/Madam,
This is to inform you that the Task 1 Report on the Development of the EU Green Public Procurement Criteria for Public Space Maintenance is now available in BATIS.
BATIS is a JRC administered tool designed to provide registered stakeholders with a platform to: access project documents, preliminary results, respond to questionnaires, comment on working documents and participate in stakeholder meetings within this process.
The report forms part of the preparatory study for the development process of the EU Green Public Procurement Criteria (EU GPP) for Public Space Maintenance which is one of several product group EU GPP criteria being developed to facilitate the inclusion of green requirements in public tender documents (See: http://susproc.jrc.ec.europa.eu/product_bureau/projects.html).

It provides an overview of existing legislations, standards and criteria, and relevant guidelines, initiatives and Ecolabels at the EU and national levels as well as those employed in the private sector. In addition, an appraisal based on statistical and technical categories that could be applied to define the activities and services that are to be covered by EU GPP criteria for maintenance of public space was conducted. Lastly, a proposal on the scope and definitions of EU GPP for Public Space Maintenance is presented as an outcome of the two afore mentioned activities as well as feedback from stakeholders on the first scope questionnaire. Please take a look.

Should you wish to access this report and participate in this particular EU GPP development process, please send contact us using the following e-mail address : JRC-PUBLIC-SPACE-MAINTENANCE@ec.europa.eu.

Thank you.

With kind regards,

JRC Public Space Maintenance Project Team
