FAQs about MRp1 :

We already have a purchasing policy that covers most of the required elements of the prerequisite and the LEED-EBOM Policy Model, but not all of them. Do we have to write an entirely new policy?

Do we have to attempt all of the credits that we include in our policy? What if we attempt them and we don’t earn them?

We have a multi-tenant building. Do all of our tenants have to adopt the purchasing policy?

EBOM-2009 MRp1:Sustainable Purchasing Policy

Policy goals

Does a specific goal need to be addressed for the policy or would a prescriptive description of the goal be used such as that “the goal is to, at a minimum, maintain the current environmentally preferable purchasing policy and work towards increasing the sustainability of future purchases of ongoing consumables etc.” meet the requirement?

A specific goal (target percentage) is required for each of the category areas addressed by the sustainable purchasing policy, and it's important that you specify the performance measurement method. An example would be for 75% (based on cost) of Ongoing Consumables purchases to meet the sustainability criteria.
