Green public procurement. Innovation of the built environment production process
The final implementation of the Minimum Environmental Criteria (CAM) for public buildings (Ministerial Decree 11/10/2017), besides having resolutely pushed the design to internalize technical-constructive choices with a more complete and complex environmental and energy profile, induces the operators of the supply chain to a greater and more aware environmental qualification. Although, despite their mandatory nature, the rate of application of CAM is still limited, this results in a strong process innovation. The proposed contribution compares two design experiences concerning buildings for educational activities, one developed in 2016 within the design Program Schools of Central Italy Earthquake, and an ongoing one at “Sapienza” University as part of the BEI 2017 multi-year investment plan.
