Laws and regulations concerning environment are getting stricter and stricter these days all over the world. What the IT equipment manufacturers have to pay attention to, in particular, is the use of chemical substances contained in parts and materials in order to comply with related laws and regulations.<BR>From 2001, Japanese electrical and electronic equipment manufacturers have been discussing standardization of green procurement survey in order to make own products more environmentally conscious ones. Electrical and electronic industries of U.S. and Europe also agreed on the concept of standardization and the three parties are now moving toward the global standards of green procurement survey. Green procurement surveys of parts and materials are essential for legal compliance of products and for selecting parts with low environmental burden. Sharing such information among manufacturers greatly improves efficiency for product development, and it is also advantageous for suppliers because it helps constructing database efficiently. This paper describes the activities toward the global standardization.
