Once the hotspots of emissions in your business are identified, we produce a practical, simple plan of action for you to start reducing. All of our plans are aligned with SBTI and PPN06/21. 

3. Succeed

Your team is left with tools to empower them to engage your suppliers and customers to join you on your journey, as well as transparently report on your progress so far.

What businesses are saying

Why Act?

Customers

65% of UK consumers think about the environmental impact of the items they buy

36% of UK consumers often or always choose brands with good sustainability credentials

55% of consumers demand more information on social, health, environmental and safety issues

89% of consumers trust a brand more or the same if they admitted challenges

Legislation

PPN0621 – It was implemented in 2021, and established requirements for suppliers to have carbon reduction plans in place and to regularly report their emissions to win major government contracts. As large companies need to cut their carbon footprint to comply with this policy notice, they’ll need to start reducing their emissions from their supply chain, so they’ll increasingly opt for net zero suppliers.

NHS & Corporate Customers – As part of this policy, for example, it has been announced that by 2030, suppliers will only be able to qualify for NHS contracts if they regularly report their carbon emissions and demonstrate their progress towards net zero

SECR (Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting) – It requires quoted companies, large unquoted companies, and large LLPs to disclose their energy use and emissions in their annual reports. This typically targets companies with more than £36m in turnover, but as with PPN0621, you may lose out on business if you don’t reduce your carbon footprint to meet these large corporations’ new emissions requirements as part of their supply chain.
