Sustainability Objectives Sample Clauses

Sustainability Objectives. The Scottish Government’s Construction Procurement Manual defines a sustainable development as meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. As already stated in the section above in investment objective 4, sustainability is a key objective of the redevelopment of the Royal Edinburgh Hospital campus. This will be achieved by establishing a number of requirements at the outset of the procurement: • The construction supply team will be required to give evidence of knowledge and competence of sustainable construction. • The procurement process will emphasise the importance of whole-life costing. • The Design Brief will define targets for: o energy and water consumption and waste management during construction and in operation and the intended method of measurement o use of recycled material in the construction of the facility o minimising air, noise and dust pollution during construction and in operation and the intended method of measurement. • Recognised environmental performance standards will be used, in this case the Building Research Establishment’s Environmental Assessment Method (BREEAM) BREEAM is the leading sustainability assessment tool for buildings.

This will also ensure that the delivered buildings are designed to be sustainable and efficient from the outset, optimising the investment required. The programmes design performance will be assessed in relation to the following categories: • Management • Health and wellbeing of the building’s users • Energy • Transport • Water usage • Sustainable construction materials • Waste • Land Use and Ecology • Pollution Credits will be awarded under each category and added together to produce a single overall ...
