CO2 emissions from building operations and construction reached their highest level ever recorded in 2019 at around 38% of global emissions. The construction industry in the UK under enormous pressure to reduce GHG emissions and reach Net Zero targets by 2050\.SustainIQ currently works with the construction sector to help contractors easily understand their operational environmental impacts through waste management, water use, energy use and transport. However operational carbon is only one part of the picture when it comes to measuring GHG impacts, they also need to understand the impacts of the subcontractors that are working on the same build and the impacts of the materials that they procure to construct the project.SustainIQ will create a simplified solution to help the UK Construction Industry to engage with their supply chain to gather data on operational and embodied carbon impacts of each build.This will focus on two areas:1\. A portal for subcontractors to report on their scope 1 &2 impacts on site during the build (which represents scope 3 impacts for the main contractor)2\. A portal which will capture the actual embodied carbon of the building by comparing the environmental ratings of products specified at design phase of the build versus the products which are commissioned and delivered to site.The construction industry needs a solution which simplifies how they can play their part in getting to net zero, having the data to showcase a holistic picture of their impacts and track performance towards environmental targets is crucial.

2019年，建筑运营和建筑行业的二氧化碳排放量达到了有记录以来的最高水平，约占全球排放量的38%。英国建筑业在减少温室气体排放和到2050年实现净零目标方面面临巨大压力。可持续智商目前与建筑业合作，通过废物管理、水使用、能源使用和运输帮助承包商轻松了解其运营环境影响。然而，运营碳只是衡量温室气体影响的一部分，他们还需要了解在同一建筑上工作的分包商的影响，以及他们为建设该项目而采购的材料的影响。可持续智商将创建一个简化的解决方案，帮助英国建筑业与其供应链合作，收集每个建筑的运营和体现碳影响的数据。这将集中在两个方面：1.一个门户网站，供分包商报告他们在施工期间对现场的范围1和2的影响(代表主承包商的范围3的影响)2\。通过将建筑设计阶段指定的产品的环境评级与委托交付工地的产品的环境评级进行比较，获取建筑实际体现的碳排放的门户网站。建筑业需要一种解决方案，以简化他们如何在实现净零排放方面发挥作用，拥有数据以展示其影响的整体情况并跟踪环境目标的表现至关重要。
