Centralized Procurement?

In looking for ways to reduce jobsite waste and lower our carbon emissions, I'm working on a business plan for centralized procurement, in lieu of individual project purchasing their own tools, PPE, & consumables.  I'm curious as to how many other GC's on here use (or have used) a central purchasing process and if you have any pros/cons that you'd be willing to share.

Hi Laura-  Curiuos if you are including rentals in your procurement plan.  We've had some meetings with myturn, a rental platform company who is driven by the sharing economy and sustainabilty. Happy to organize a demo for SCL folks. Perhaps others are looking to help encourage decisions for equiptment- electric, Tier 4 engine, ECO rating, etc.  https://myturn.com/asset-tracking/
