You may have been asked for your carbon footprint or you’re looking for a clearer understanding of your organisation’s environmental impact. Either way, a Carbon Footprint Assessment gives you a reliable picture of your emissions and helps you understand where they come from. At Attain Zero, we focus on making the process straightforward. We’ll explain what information is needed, guide you through the assessment and help you understand the results when everything is complete. Our aim is simple: to help you make sense of your carbon emissions and feel confident in the information you’re using.
Carbon Footprint Assessments from £595
A Carbon Footprint Assessment measures the greenhouse gas emissions generated by your organisation's activities over a defined reporting period. The assessment combines relevant operational information to build a picture of your organisation's emissions and express them as kilograms of carbon dioxide equivalent (kgCO₂e). For most organisations, the assessment considers:
Direct emissions generated from sources under your control, such as fuel use, gas heating and company-owned vehicles.
Indirect emissions associated with purchased electricity.
Other indirect emissions that occur across your organisation's activities, including areas such as business trave
The completed assessment provides a baseline that can be used for reporting, benchmarking and future planning.
You probably already have a lot of the data you need, but don’t worry about getting the data together until you have had a chat with us, we can help you.
Depending on the scope of the assessment, information may include:
We’ll explain exactly what is required, where it can usually be found and how any information gaps can be managed.
At Atain Zero we keep the process straightforward and user-friendly.
We'll discuss your organisation, understand your requirements and determine the scope of the assessment.
We'll provide a clear list of the information required and support you throughout the collection process.

We’ll explain exactly what is required, where it can usually be found and how any information gaps can be managed.
We’ll review the information provided and prepare your carbon footprint report this will explain the methodologies used with robust justifications ensuring that the results are accurate and the reporting is repeatable year-on-year.
We’ll guide you through the findings, explain the key results and answer any questions you may have.
We’ll explain the options available for future reporting, monitoring or carbon reduction planning.
A Carbon Footprint Assessment helps answer some important questions:
For many organisations, having clear answers to those questions is one of the most valuable outcomes of the assessment.
When the assessment is complete, you'll receive:
Most importantly, you’ll have a carbon report and a clearer understanding of your emissions and confidence in the information available to you.
Our Carbon Footprint Assessments are commonly used by:
Whether you’re a small organisation taking your first steps or a larger business looking for a clearer picture of your emissions, the goal remains the same: understanding your carbon footprint with confidence.
At Atain Zero we keep the process straightforward and user-friendly.
Timescales vary depending on the size of the organisation and the information available. Most assessments can be completed within a few weeks once the required information has been received.
Kilograms of carbon dioxide equivalent (kgCO₂e) is a standard unit used to express different greenhouse gases in a comparable format.
No. All calculations depend on the information available. The objective is to produce results that are representative, transparent and consistent.
Not always. The most appropriate scope depends on your reporting objectives and requirements. You can start with Scope 1 and 2, and work towards Scope 3 when you are ready to.
Yes, we'll review the available information and advise on the most appropriate approach.
Changes may result from operational changes, improved data quality or revised emissions factors used within the calculation process.
No. A Carbon Footprint Assessment measures emissions and establishes a baseline. A Carbon Reduction Plan sets out how an organisation intends to reduce emissions over time.
Reducing carbon emissions isn’t about making dramatic changes overnight. It’s about understanding where your emissions come from, identifying the biggest opportunities for improvement, and taking practical steps that fit your organisation.
Every Carbon Reduction Plan we develop is built around three simple questions:
Turn your emissions baseline into a practical roadmap for future reductions.
Prepare a compliant Carbon Reduction Plan for public sector procurement requirements.
Whether you’re measuring emissions for the first time or looking to establish a reliable baseline for future reporting, we’re here to help.
We’ll explain the process clearly; answer your questions and help you understand the results with confidence.
