Carbon accounting and CRP support for NHS suppliers
We help suppliers understand the carbon reporting requirements relevant to their NHS business, calculate emissions across their operations and supply chains, and prepare or update their Carbon Reduction Plans.
Our support combines technical carbon accounting with direct NHS procurement experience. You receive documented calculations, clear priorities for reducing emissions and a practical process for keeping your reporting up to date.
Prepare for the 2027 NHS requirements
Expanded NHS carbon reporting requirements will apply to relevant procurements starting from 1 April 2027. Suppliers subject to the 2027 standard will need to report all relevant Scope 3 emissions as part of their Carbon Reduction Plan (CRP), including relevant sources outside the UK. These are indirect emissions associated with activities such as purchasing goods, transport and the use of products sold.
We can help you establish which requirements apply to your business, identify gaps in your existing reporting and determine the data and calculations needed to prepare for your next tender.
How it works
We can provide a focused review or undertake the carbon accounting and reporting work your business needs.
1 - Review your starting point
We review your existing CRP, calculations and procurement requirements, then agree the scope of work.
2 - Map your emissions
We assess all 15 Scope 3 categories, identify relevant emissions sources and data needs, and document reporting boundaries and exclusions.
3 - Build or update your carbon inventory
We calculate emissions using appropriate data and emission factors, document assumptions and recalculate baseline emissions where necessary.
4 - Prepare your CRP and reporting process
We prepare your plan for company approval and publication, identify priorities for reducing emissions, and establish clear responsibilities and processes for annual updates.
