The contracting authority has assessed that it gives a better climate and environmental effect to set the minimum requirements for the following environmental considerations, rather than using it as the award criteria: • Manufacturer responsibility for handling packaging • Manufacturer responsibility for a recycling scheme for EE waste. • Minimum level for energy classes at product level. • Statistics of energy classes for the actual purchased products. • Guarantee and repair scheme The contracting authority would like the framework agreement to contribute to a predictable and targeted environmental effect. By setting clear, concrete requirements for environmental considerations in the requirement specifications, the contracting authority can ensure that all suppliers who participate in the procurement provide products and services that fulfil minimum levels for environmental considerations. The suppliers in the market initially have little influence on production and sustainable design of the goods encompassed by the framework agreement. The suppliers in the market mainly offer the same products, from the same manufacturers. In order to ensure that tenderers do not offset the environmental effect of the tender, with lower prices, it is considered that it would be better to set minimum requirements regarding environmental considerations.
