The organization should apply twelve principles in procurement: accountability for the impacts of both the organization and its supply chains, viewed over the life cycle; transparency in decisions and activities and encouragement of supplier transparency; ethical behaviour promoted through the supply chains; full and fair opportunity for all suppliers including local suppliers and SMOs; respect for what stakeholders want; respect for international norms of behaviour and for the rule of law, staying alert to breaches in the supply chains; respect for human rights; innovative solutions; a focus on needs (buy only what is needed); integration into all existing practices; analysis of all costs over the life cycle; and continual improvement.
