CFIT Framework for Circular and Fair ICT Procurement
A CFIT working group has outlined what Circular and Fair Procurement of ICT means to its participants. Besides defining ambitions around four core themes, the working group also discussed key strategies for procuring organizations to work towards these ambitions. The strategies are:
- Buy less, Buy better, Use better, Use longer.
For each strategy, commitments have been formulated, which CFIT participants will consider as part of their procurement strategies.

CFIT Mini Guide: Practical Strategies for Carbon-Conscious ICT Procurement
The CFIT Pact is set up out of the belief that through sustainable public procurement of ICT, public organizations can accelerate circularity, fairness and sustainability in the ICT sector. This Mini Guide explains how you can adopt carbon-conscious procurement practices throughout the different stages of the CFIT procurement cycle. This helps to reduce your organization's carbon impact and it supports further innovation toward low-carbon and circular solutions in the ICT sector.
