## Summary

The HEART Academies Trust, located in Bedford, is inviting suppliers to participate in the procurement process for the "ROOT to Market Dynamic Market for Regenerative Procurement." This tender is part of the sector focusing on goods, including the regeneration of construction materials and ethical supply chains. Managed by Value Match Services Ltd, this open procurement process will allow businesses to bid until 31 March 2036. Framework agreements open up the dynamic market to the whole public sector, with the procurement conducted electronically. The initiative seeks to reduce environmental impact through innovative approaches that replenish natural systems, promote ethical labour practices, and embrace nature-enhancing methodologies.

This procurement opportunity presents significant growth potential for businesses specialising in sustainable and regenerative products and services. Industries covered span from environmental services to construction, offering a broad scope for SMEs and VCSEs adept in these fields. With an emphasis on circularity and resource stewardship, companies with expertise in recycled materials and low carbon operations stand a good chance to compete. By demonstrating robust economic and technical credentials, businesses can tap into public sector markets, encouraging long-term partnerships and fostering growth through innovative solutions that align with the trust's regenerative and climate-friendly objectives.

## Notice

Regeneration Over Extraction. Suppliers must seek to: Prioritise materials and products that restore, replenish, or enhance natural living systems. Avoid extractive materials that degrade ecosystems, deplete finite resources, or cause long term environmental harm. Use resource efficiently and maximise material lifespans through good design and appropriate material use Demonstrate a clear transition plan away from extractive inputs where alternatives are not yet available. Minimise embodied carbon in construction materials (e.g., concrete, steel, insulation). Prioritise regenerative or circular construction materials (e.g., reclaimed steel, recycled aggregates, lower embodied carbon concrete alternatives, timber from regenerative forestry). Avoid extractive materials linked to high impact mining (e.g., virgin aggregates, aluminium, PVC). Seek to design for deconstruction, enhancing the residual value of materials at the end of design life and reducing future reliance on extractive practices Ethical and Non-Exploitative Supply Chains. Suppliers must seek to: Ensure all labour practices across their supply chain are fair, safe, and free from exploitation. Avoid sourcing from suppliers or regions associated with forced labour, unsafe working conditions, or unfair pay. Maintain transparent supply chain mapping and provide evidence of due diligence on request. Ensure fair and safe working conditions on construction sites. 2.3 Climate Friendly Operations. Suppliers must seek to: Minimise carbon, water and waste in their organisations and core operations. Specifically minimise greenhouse gas emissions across production, transport, and distribution. Prioritise low carbon materials, renewable energy, and efficient logistics. Minimise whole life carbon impacts in design and materials, optimising embodied carbon together with operational efficiency. Reduce site emissions (plant, generators, transport) and use electric or low emission plant and machinery. Implement site level water management and waste segregation plans. Demonstrate continuous improvement in reducing their carbon footprint, water usage and waste production, supported by measurable data where possible. Drive design towards deconstruction practices and offer (and advocate for) regenerative material options to replace more mainstream materials Nature Enhancing Practices. Suppliers must seek to: Adopt practices that actively improve soil health, biodiversity, water quality, and ecosystem resilience. Use regenerative agricultural, manufacturing, or operational methods wherever feasible. Avoid chemicals, processes, or materials known to harm biodiversity or natural habitats. Implement nature positive site practices. Ensure soil protection and restoration before and after works. Avoid habitat disturbance and protect ecological features during construction. Circularity and Resource Stewardship. Suppliers must seek to: Maximise recycled, reclaimed, or up-cycled materials. Design products and packaging for reuse, repair, or recycling. Minimise waste generation and avoid single use materials unless essential for safety or compliance. Design for reuse, modularity and disassembly. Maximise reuse of demolition materials. Avoid single use construction materials (e.g. plastic sheeting) Offer and opt for the use of bio-based and recovered materials wherever viably possible
