We aim to deliver a Carbon Neutral Service and support G-Cloud clients to become Carbon Neutral and develop a Carbon Management Plan with a commitment to meeting the Government’s target of achieving Net Zero. We are fully supportive of the Greening Government Commitments 2021 to 2025 (GGC) (which provide guidance/mandates to UK government and their suppliers on minimising emissions, conserving resources, and supporting natural spaces and biodiversity recovery) and aim to deliver positive social value towards the UK’s emissions reduction targets.
Our services are predominantly remotely delivered, avoiding unnecessary environmental impacts of travel.
Where travel is essential, our consultants are urged to use public transport where possible.
We operate an electric vehicle policy and provide support to our people to implement renewable installations/solutions for their home offices.
We commit to investing a minimum of 5% of income received through this framework into renewable solutions for our business – or make an equivalent contribution to a selected environmentally focused charity.
