Global Survey on Sustainability

by Richard Matthews
May 8, 2012

As reported in an April 30, 2012 Environmental
Leader article
, 72 percent of US companies say sustainability influences
their purchasing decisions and is an important factor when selecting a service
provider. Outside of the US, 91 percent of the companies polled said
sustainability was part of their purchasing decisions. These numbers are from a survey called 2012
Rackspace Green Survey
 from cloud computing firm Rackspace Hosting.



Melissa Gray, director of sustainability at Rackspace said
the survey results show the companies see sustainability as increasingly
necessary. Companies appear to understand that selecting solid partners as part
of their supply chain translates into lower risk and more efficiency.
The survey also found:

  • 26 percent of respondents said cost considerations outweighed environmental
    factors when purchasing products and services;
  • 54 percent of companies said when two purchasing choices are equal
    (including cost), the greener product or service is better;
  • 20 percent said when two purchasing choices are not equal, greener is
    better;
  • 17 percent of companies said sustainability is a standard part of their
    request for information, proposal or quote system;
  • 59 percent of companies said they consider sustainability periodically for
    specific types of purchases.
