Our tailored services include..

Audit Preparation and Support

Preparation and training of teams across the business on what to expect from the audit process and documentation and evidence gathered to facilitate the audit process. This ensures the certification process is as seamless and efficient as possible.

Once certified, maintaining compliance involves continuous improvement with annual audit requirements. Organisations often create annual roadmaps to meet audit requirements and drive further advancements in carbon reduction strategies. Effective carbon management becomes integral to operational practices, keeping organisations ahead in a rapidly evolving regulatory environment.

PAS 2080’s Comprehensive Scope

PAS 2080 outlines rigorous requirements for carbon management throughout the entire lifecycle of a built asset - from initial strategy to design, construction, operation, maintenance, and end-of-life considerations such as decommissioning or retrofitting.

The framework is designed for a wide range of value chain members in the built environment. Whether your organisation is an asset owner, a design consultant, a construction firm, or a supplier of products and materials, PAS 2080 provides the necessary tools to enhance your carbon management practices. Implementing these guidelines not only helps in reducing emissions but also strengthens your market credibility as sustainability becomes a decisive industry standard.
