comment on your net zero targets
*Using 2022 as a base year, out target is to be net zero well before our declared target of 2030. With our commitment to reduce carbon for ourselves it impacts all of our clients in a positive way and with the technologies and services we can provide we can help them achieve a similar goal.

comment on your near-term targets
*As this is our first year carbon calculation and default setpoint, we will make multi year comparisons yearly against the last with our next report will be for the year 2023. The target may be 2030 to be net zero, but with our well actioned and thought out plan we will generate impetuous and really anticipate hitting the target years ahead of that date.

Comment on your energy consumption
*The EPC rating of our offices is B. All lighting is LED with personal detection activation. This could be improved in the future using daylight saving sensors. The majority of energy consumption of our office is dependant on the technology of the equipment within it and when it is used. Further staff training/awareness relating to energy consumption is planned in the near future. As the equipment nears end of life or technology evolves, lower energy usage will be a deciding factor in its replacement.

List any sources of emissions excluded:
*Employee commuting
describe the calculation methodology and comment on accuracy:
*Employee commuting will be included in the following year report, however as we work in Central London primarily, the majority of employees travel to work using public transport, cycling or walking the carbon footprint is considered minor and as such estimated at a near minimum . Business travel is made up using the fuel and vehicles from mobile engineers and contract managers. As technology evolves and also our commitment to all company vehicles being EV powered moving forward this will reduce to zero in the anticipated near future. Another large contributor is the paper purchased (only sustainable) and printing generated from it. As we move to more electronic systems this will reduce. Overall the accuracy of the data can be considered comprehensive. We have used actual readings and hard data for all Scopes 1, 2, and 3.
Actions and plans to reduce emissions *
Scope 1 Actions
own facilities
Yes
We are monitoring the energy usage on site by recording and analysing the data. The EPC of the building is now a B. Air quality monitoring has been installed to help with analysis. Printing and building folder creation will reduce and will occur with a transfer to new maintenance system technology being presently trialled. This will reduce our scope 3 emissions but also our scope 2 electrical usage.
own vehicles
Yes
The company have 15 vehicles and will migrate as technology progresses to more environmentally friendly power sources by 2030. This may be well be electric or another form of power depending on technical advancements.
own processes
Yes
Our processes are becoming more accurate and more efficient with better procedures created and in place. This is leading to an already noticeable reduction in wastage.
scope 2 actions
purchased electricity
Yes
All lighting is presently LED with PIR control. This is intended to be fitted with light sensitive daylight sensing controls where suitable. All equipment purchased/leased is to ensure it is the most energy efficient for the required task. As mentioned previously a transfer to electronic systems by all departments will require less printing and less electricity consumed.

scope 3 actions
supply chain related (upstream)
purchased good and services
*Yes
The company now has a Sustainability team, looking and advising on how the carbon footprint of the company can be reduced and ensuring where possible it is acted upon. As an example all work clothing where possible is now sustainable.
capital goods
*Yes
Part of the sustainability teams remit is to identify which capital goods are the best suited for the company to help reduce carbon for future purchases.
fuel and energy related activities
*N/A
-
transportation and distribution (upstream)
*Yes
Transportation and distribution of parts is to be directly from suppliers to site.
waste in operation
*Yes
Waste in the HQ is controlled by the landlord, but batteries and WEEE waste is collected and taken to a remote site for disposal nearby (walking distance). Cardboard boxes are used for transportation of created site folders. Paper is shredded and removed to an energy from waste site. Better procedures and auditing of them will generate less wastage. Work clothing is recycled.
business travel
*Yes
Business travel is to use public transport where possible. However all company vehicles are to be EV or better by 2030
employee commuting
*Yes
The employee commuting carbon footprint is to be incorporated accurately. To ensure this is a low as possible a cycle to work scheme, and a 0% loan for train season tickets has been introduced and will be publicised in the the next Sustainable Team newsletter.
upstream leased assets
*Yes
Leased vehicles are to be only EV or dependant on technical advances a suitable alternative by 2030.
customer related (downstream)
transportation and distribution (downstream)
*Yes
All parts to be delivered directly to site
processing of sold products
*N/A
-
use of sold products
*N/A
-
end-of-life treatment of products
*Yes
All work clothing is now returned and removed by an official waste carrier. The company logo is removed and sent for incineration at an energy from waste plant, the material is then recycled for future clothing. As which all work clothing purchased is where possible now sustainable.
