MOD Sustainability and Environmental Appraisal Tool HandbookThe MOD Sustainability and Environmental Appraisal Tools Handbook Health and Safety Health and Safety Other Government Departments (OGDs) and industry often adopt DE’s “safe systems of working” as best practice. Disposal of Surplus Land and BuildingsDE is responsible for the disposal of surplus land and building, maximising the receipt to MOD. Historically this was dependant on Top Level Budgets (TLBs) declaring sites surplus. Under the Estate Strategy development lines - where DE manages the estate as a “corporate asset” - DE is now proactive in rationalising the estate and identifying sites for disposal with agreement of Customer TLBs. Supplier ManagementDE recognises that effective and constructive engagement with industry is central to improving performance, generating the best Value for Money (VfM) and cementing collaborative relationships. To help facilitate effective engagement with Industry, DE has developed a Supplier Management strategy which focuses on ‘Key Supplier Management' ’ and ‘Relationships with wider industry’. To both underpin and promote this DE, in collaboration with their principle suppliers, launched Supplier Associations (SA) in November 2005. The Prime Contracting SA includes DE and Supplier representatives from:
The Aquatrine SA includes DE and Service Provider Representatives from:
Engagement with supply chains to gain their input and foster closer integration is also encouraged. The overarching purpose of the SA’s is to create a win-win environment where, shared business improvement work – with resources from all parties – provides tangible benefits to DE, Industry and our Customers.
