Carbon Toolkit
Scope 3 supply chain emissions most often make up the largest portion of your carbon footprint. Our carbon toolkit provides guidelines for an approach to working with suppliers to ensure they continue to measure and improve the data they provide to you for incorporation into your calculation. It advises which suppliers to focus on and what to ask for.
The toolkit expands on the requirements of Procurement Policy Note (PPN) 06/21 and provides a compliant template that stretches suppliers a little further including:
- Scope 3 categories to enable you to understand a supplier’s ability to provide focussed emissions data in areas that impact your score
- A commitment to providing product/service embodied carbon emissions data
- 5-year carbon reduction targets up to 2050, including offsets
- Offsetting plan detail to the focus remains on reduction
You will also find an evaluation checklist to help you to assess carbon reduction plans received.
As your data improves, so your reliance on a spend-based methodology reduces. It’s a journey requiring sure, steady steps to 2050.
