Note
Increasing the sustainability of internal operational
management
Rabobank practises sustainable purchasing as much as possible.
In doing so, we try to use renewable raw materials wherever we
can, as well as contracts based on circular economic principles.
We collect and recycle our own equipment - such as the Rabo
Random Reader, phones and network equipment. In addition,
in the design of the newly introduced Rabo Scanner, circular
principles were applied by using replaceable batteries. In 2013,
Rabobank also signed the Green Deal Circular Purchasing.
The Business Management department also serves as the
expertise centre for the entire Rabobank Group. We have
made our facilities significantly more simple, sustainable
and modern.To make the contribution to the sustainability
ambition of Rabobank tangible, Rabobank wants to apply
Socially Responsible Purchasing, influence the sustainability
of all purchasing chains and create transparency in the chain.
Our goal is to grade all suppliers with a purchasing volume
of more than EUR 50,000 with regard to their sustainability
efforts based on the demands set forth by IS026000. By now,
this test is applied to the vendors of the central business unit
Operations. In 2015, the purchasing volume of operations
amounted to almost 290 million. When compared with the
total purchasing volume, this is approximately 24% of the total
purchasing by the central units of Rabobank. In addition, in
2015, we have extended the progress report on the purchasing
process to CVRS: reports for Cost, Value, Risk and Sustainability.
KP114 We aim to increase our organisation's score on the criteria
