Carbon Reduction Plan

Carbon Reduction Target Setting

Setting credible emissions targets is the foundation of a robust carbon reduction plan. We help you define science-based, achievable goals aligned with Net Zero, the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), ISO 14068, and UK government requirements under PPN 06/21. Our approach ensures your targets are both ambitious and deliverable, supporting compliance, transparency, and long-term impact.
 
Our service includes:

 
• Target development – Setting near-term and long-term emissions reduction goals aligned with Net Zero and SBTi pathways.
• Standards alignment – Ensuring targets meet ISO 14068 and PPN 06/21 criteria for public sector and supply chain reporting.
• Baseline definition – Establishing a clear emissions baseline to track progress and performance.
• Feasibility testing – Assessing achievability based on operational data, resources, and strategic priorities.
• Integration support – Embedding targets within wider ESG, climate, and investment strategies.

Emissions Reduction Strategy

We help you identify and prioritise effective actions to reduce emissions, focusing on practical, high-impact measures across operations and supply chains. Our strategies are tailored to your organisation’s footprint, resources, and goals, supporting progress toward Net Zero.
 

Our service includes:

 
• Energy efficiency – Improving building and process performance to cut energy use.
• EV transition – Supporting the shift to electric vehicles across fleets and travel policies.
• Low-carbon procurement – Embedding sustainability into supplier selection and purchasing.
• Travel optimisation – Reducing emissions from commuting, business travel, and logistics.
• Employee engagement – Mobilising staff through training, incentives, and behaviour change.

Carbon Reduction Plan Development

We compile your Carbon Reduction Plan (CRP) in a clear, compliant format-integrating emissions targets, reduction actions, and reporting frameworks such as SECR, TCFD, and ESG. Our plans are tailored to meet regulatory requirements while supporting strategic climate goals and stakeholder expectations.
 

Our service includes:

 
• Structured CRP documentation – Clear, accessible plans aligned with PPN 06/21 and Net Zero commitments.
• Framework integration – Linking targets and actions with SECR, TCFD, and ESG reporting.
• Action tracking – Mapping reduction measures with timelines, responsibilities, and expected impact.
• Stakeholder alignment – Ensuring plans support investor, customer, and regulatory engagement.
• Review and update support – Keeping your CRP current as data, targets, and regulations evolve.

Monitoring & Review Frameworks

We help you establish governance structures and KPIs to track progress against your carbon reduction targets, ensuring your plan remains actionable and up to date. Our frameworks support annual reviews or updates as required, helping you stay aligned with evolving data, strategy, and compliance needs.
 

Our service includes:

 
• Governance setup – Defining roles and responsibilities for oversight and delivery.
• Climate KPIs – Developing metrics to monitor emissions, actions, and performance.
• Review cycles – Supporting annual CRP updates or more frequent reviews as needed.
• Progress tracking tools – Providing dashboards and templates for internal reporting.
• Continuous improvement – Identifying opportunities to refine actions and accelerate impact.

Supply Chain CRP Enablement

We support councils, NHS Trusts, and contractors to build Carbon Reduction Plan (CRP) capability across their supply chains, helping suppliers meet public sector requirements and contribute to collective Net Zero goals. Our enablement approach combines practical tools, expert guidance, and capacity-building support.
 

Our service includes:

 
• CRP templates – Providing structured, compliant formats tailored to supplier needs.
• Training sessions – Equipping supply chain partners with the knowledge to develop and maintain CRPs.
• Advisory support – Offering one-to-one guidance to help suppliers align with PPN 06/21 and Net Zero strategies.
• Capability building – Strengthening supplier readiness for climate reporting and action.
• Collaborative engagement – Facilitating dialogue between buyers and suppliers to drive shared progress.

Strategic Procurement Alignment

We ensure supplier Carbon Reduction Plans (CRPs) support your Net Zero, climate risk, and ESG goals, raising climate maturity across your value chain. Our approach helps embed sustainability into procurement processes, driving consistent climate action through your supply chain.
 

Our service includes:

 
• CRP alignment checks – Reviewing supplier plans against your climate and ESG objectives.
• Procurement policy integration – Embedding CRP requirements into sourcing and contract frameworks.
• Supplier engagement – Supporting dialogue and collaboration to raise climate ambition.
• Risk and impact mapping – Identifying climate-related risks and opportunities across key spend areas.
• Performance tracking – Monitoring supplier progress and maturity over time.
