SPP Regions promoted the creation of regional networks of municipalities collaborating on the implementation of sustainable procurement. Seven regional networks were involved in the project:
- Réseau Grand Ouest (RGO) in France

- Torino region - Acquisti Pubblici Ecologici (APE)
- Bristol region - Partners in Procurement Energy Network (PIPEN)

The seven regional networks in the project launched 40 eco-innovative tenders, saving almost 400,000 tonnes of CO2, in the following sectors: food and catering, low emission vehicles, electicity/energy, energy use in buildings, indoor lighting.
The project also produced a series of best practice guides and reports on:
- Life cycle costing
