GPP-friendly record-keeping
Green Public Procurement (Circular 17/2025) imposes green-criteria evidence requirements on suppliers selling to Irish public bodies. The duty to produce the evidence sits with the supplier, not the accounting vendor.
Why this regime matters
The attestation burden sits on the supplier, not the software vendor. Accounting platforms are an indirect surface - record-keeping for green-criteria tenders - and no platform in this set advertises a GPP module. We track the regime because the buyers selling into public tenders need to know where the gap is.

Where the duty actually sits
Green Public Procurement under Circular 17/2025 sets green criteria for goods, services, and works bought by Irish public bodies. The duty to produce green-criteria evidence falls on the supplier bidding for the tender, not on the accounting software vendor.
That makes accounting platforms an indirect surface: they hold the records a supplier draws on to assemble its tender evidence, but none advertises a GPP attestation feature. We track the regime because Irish SMEs selling into public tenders need to know the gap is theirs to close, and we will mark a cell the moment a vendor ships a relevant feature.
These cells read ? until a vendor or regulator publishes evidence we can cite. Back to the full Compliance Matrix.
