ROOT to market: Building regenerative supply chains
ROOT to Market is a dynamic procurement marketplace designed to help the property sector deliver projects with greater transparency, impact and long-term value. Unlike traditional, one-off tendering models, ROOT to Market is a perpetually open and flexible platform aligned with the RIBA Plan of Work enabling commissioners and project teams to engage trusted, pre-approved supply chain partners at every stage of a project from inception through to delivery.
The platform curates experienced organisations committed to circular and regenerative materials, ethical sourcing and measurable community benefit. This supports faster, more confident procurement decisions while maintaining robust standards for quality, sustainability and social value.
This session explores how procurement can shift from purely cost-driven transactions to value-led collaboration. ROOT to Market brings best practice principles to reality by drawing on real-world project experience to help clients contract for regenerative outcomes from the outset, rather than retrospectively. The session demonstrates how a marketplace approach can diversify supply chains, unlock innovation and embed environmental and social outcomes into project delivery.
