Rhein-Sieg Waste Management Integrity Pact

Mission

Enhance transparency and integrity in the procurement processes of a local public waste management company

Activities

After a bribery scandal involving the former managing director at the Rhein-Sieg Waste Management Company (RSAG), RSAG created an Integrity Pact, with TI-Germany serving as civil society monitor and with contractual clauses that bidders sign with integrity obligations and clear sanctions for breach of the obligations. This was the first Integrity Pact that TI-Germany helped tailor to a specific company in Germany. RSAG was to include the Integrity Pact in all of its tenders from 2004 onwards.
