Businesses are asking us how they can boost their net zero progress to be considered for government contracts.
If your organization wants a government contract, you will have to first demonstrate your commitment to net zero. New procedures are introduced by the UK parliament which requires businesses to commit to net zero by 2050 and make public transparent and credible carbon reduction plans before bidding for any government contracts.
By September of 2021, prospective suppliers bidding for contracts above £5 million a year need to have committed to the government’s target of net zero by 2050 and have published a carbon reduction plan.
Businesses that are not meeting the new measure could potentially be excluded from bidding or winning any contracts. The United Kingdom has made aggressive carbon neutrality commitments, and they claim they are 50% – halfway there. By ensuring companies that are bidding for major government contracts comply with the measure, not just those who successfully win contracts, they solidify their commitment to a net-zero future.
How can we help you quickly boost your carbon reduction plans?
Consultiv Utilities are excited to announce the launch of our newly developed Customer Portal. We have spent a lot of time deep-diving into the development of the portal to make sure we fully understand how we can offer exceptional customer service and provide solutions. Proving customers with historical and real-time data can help to build the framework for the carbon reduction plan. Companies will better understand how they were monitoring, gain additional insights into how they are currently tracking, what they need to be monitoring, and their progress towards their energy goals.
Any business must have a baseline of its consumption. As a business expands, so does the number of utility invoices. The process of collecting energy bills normally sits within the finance function. Accounts Payable teams typically pay a utility bill without additional validation or tracking of the data on the bill. Payment processes can be awkward for large businesses as sourcing electricity, gas, and water bills are exhausting and resource-intensive.
