Sustainability consultancy
A company footprint and reduction plan you can evidence.
This is for you if you need an organisation-wide Scope 1, 2 or 3 footprint, a carbon reduction plan, a customer disclosure or a reporting pack, with the method, assumptions and remaining gaps visible.
- Defined scope
- Evidence recorded
- Usable output
What we do
Who this is for and when. For contractors, builders merchants, manufacturers and sustainability or reporting leads who need an organisational carbon footprint, reduction planning or a sustainability disclosure, whether starting from scratch or improving an existing report.
Support for construction businesses with Scope 1, 2 and 3 carbon footprints, carbon reduction plans and sustainability reporting. We work to the GHG Protocol and the UK Government greenhouse gas conversion factors for the relevant reporting year, and we do not assume every reporting mandate applies to every organisation. Carbon footprints, reduction planning and reporting are the main focus; a double materiality assessment is available alongside this as a secondary piece of work where it is useful.
- Agree the boundary, data owners, reporting period, factor sources, assumptions and approval route before any calculation starts.
- Collect site energy, fuel and fleet, purchased materials, waste and supply-chain records against that boundary.
- Calculate Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions following the GHG Protocol, using the UK Government greenhouse gas conversion factors for the relevant reporting year.
- Identify reduction actions and responsibilities from the agreed baseline.
- Prepare the disclosure or reporting pack for the framework in scope, and run a double materiality assessment as a secondary output where that is agreed.
What you receive
- A boundary and method note recording scope, data owners, reporting period, factor sources and assumptions
- A calculation workbook and emissions summary covering Scope 1, 2 and 3
- A reduction action list with responsibilities
- An evidence and gap register covering every figure used
What we need from you
Site energy, fuel and fleet records, purchased materials data, waste records, supply-chain information, and access to the people who own each area.
Provenance: every figure is logged with its source and method, marked measured, estimated or supplier-provided, and recorded with any assumption behind it. Status: each figure is then rated on currency, completeness and any conflict, and anything missing or expired is flagged rather than relied on.
What is not included
Independent assurance and certification are separate appointments. We work to the reporting framework agreed for each assignment and do not present figures against a standard that has not been confirmed as applicable to your organisation.

Questions about this service
Do we need to start with a full Scope 3 inventory?
No. We agree the boundary first, screen the categories that matter for your organisation, and improve the evidence progressively as data becomes available.
Which factors and standards do you work to?
The GHG Protocol and the UK Government greenhouse gas conversion factors for the relevant reporting year. The framework in scope is confirmed for each assignment before work starts.
Is a double materiality assessment included?
It is available as a secondary piece of work alongside the footprint and reporting, where that is useful and agreed in the scope.
