Net Zero isn’t a buzzword anymore—it’s a board-level target.
And yet, many organisations still treat sustainability as a standalone project, disconnected from the very thing that drives emissions:
Your buildings—and the assets inside them.
That’s where a good asset survey becomes more than compliance.
It becomes a carbon roadmap.
🔍 Why Assets Matter to Net Zero
Your buildings are full of:
- Outdated plant
- Inefficient lighting
- Poorly performing HVAC systems
- Leaky building fabric
If you don’t know what’s underperforming, you can’t upgrade it.
And if it’s not on your register, it’s not on your sustainability plan.
🔧 What We Find (That Impacts Carbon)
In most estates, we identify:
- 🚨 Gas-fired boilers well past lifecycle age
- ⚠️ BMS sensors disconnected or non-functional
- 🧯 Energy-wasting emergency lighting systems
- ❄️ Poorly insulated chillers and roof-top units
- 🕳️ Building fabric issues like glazing and draft control that are undocumented
Every one of these issues adds cost and carbon.
📈 How Asset Surveys Drive Sustainable Planning
Our surveys are designed to support Net Zero strategies by:
- 📋 Identifying high-consumption assets
- 🧾 Grading plant based on efficiency, not just age
- 📍 Mapping out areas for upgrade or retrofit
- 🔁 Aligning condition data with lifecycle and carbon impact
- 🔌 Highlighting where building controls or renewables could be implemented
The result?
A clear plan that lets you prioritise sustainability spending—based on evidence.
🧮 Carbon Planning Meets Capital Planning
Want to decarbonise your estate?
You need to know:
- What’s inefficient
- What’s replaceable
- What’s fundable
- What’s going to deliver ROI
You can’t do that without data.
🎯 Bonus: Funding Access
Having structured, condition-based data also:
- Strengthens your business case for Salix or sustainability grants
- Helps align with government frameworks (e.g. PSDS, Net Zero Carbon Building Standard)
- Demonstrates due diligence to stakeholders and auditors
