Frequently asked questions

Do all NHS suppliers need a CRP?

Yes, as of 2024 NHS England requires all suppliers — regardless of contract value — to submit a Carbon Reduction Plan. This applies to NHS Supply Chain, NHS Shared Business Services, and individual NHS trust procurement. Without a published CRP, your bid may not be evaluated.

What happens if I don't have a CRP for an NHS tender?

Your bid may be excluded at the selection stage before it is even evaluated on quality or price. NHS procurement teams are required to check for a published Carbon Reduction Plan as part of the mandatory selection criteria. Even if your bid is the best value, it cannot proceed without a CRP.

How quickly can I get an NHS-ready CRP?

You enter your activity data, upload energy bills, and the platform calculates your emissions and generates a PPN 006 compliant CRP document with all 7 mandatory sections.
