Aim of Client

Repeat Offender wished to fully understand the business’s environmental impact, and to put in place an action plan to reduce this impact incrementally over the next 5 years.

Outcome

Repeat Offender engaged Footprint to initiate a comprehensive carbon monitoring program to identify opportunities to reduce their environmental impact. After a year a full impact study has been completed with an action plan developed for roll out in year 2. This includes reduction in electricity, gas, water and waste.

The program also identifies savings early in the energy segment, so Footprint is now cost neutral for Repeat Offender. Further savings in the gas component in year 2 will see the program become cost positive.

Testimonial

‘The experience and knowledge provided by the Footprint team has helped us reduce our carbon emissions and utility costs. This has enabled me to spend more time on the business whilst they manage the administration and operation of the program. As an added benefit, the Footprint program has so far been cash neutral.’

– Alex Greco, Repeat Offender Elwood

Aim of Client

Like Butter is a design and fabrication business, who’s reputation for flexible and lateral thinking, strong aesthetics and considered detail is industry leading. They have a strong environmental program in place, and wish to be carbon neutral, but have no methodology to monitor this information – Footprint was their answer.

Outcome

After year 1 Like Butter, via the Footprint Software System has uncovered their total carbon footprint – and yes, they are Carbon Neutral. Congratulations Like Butter!

The software has highlighted areas where Like Butter can make further reductions to their environmental impact via actions and behaviour, including waste and transport.

Testimonial

‘We at Like Butter view sustainability as a core value, and we have been working with Footprint for the past 16 months to track our Carbon Footprint and reach our sustainability goals.

Before engaging Footprint, we had little understanding of our true environmental impact, but now with full visibility of their Emissions Monitoring System, we know exactly where we stand, giving us great peace of mind.

Footprint has also been extremely helpful with our waste issues, alerting us to alternative options and strategies. We look forward to continuing our partnership with Footprint in 2023 as an integral part of our sustainability program.’

– Jem Freeman, Like Butter Castlemaine

Aim of client

Accountancy Insurance is very conscious of their environmental impact and wish to be seen as an industry leader for carbon reduction action. AI wish to understand their carbon footprint and create an action-based program to reduce this.

Outcome

AI now have a full understanding of their carbon footprint via our Emissions Management Software. This has presented some interesting data as Covid has meant little office activity. The second year aim is to account for the increase in carbon output due to increased office activity, and create a suitable action plan to reduce this.

Testimonial

‘AI has a commitment to be a Sustainable business, and as such has engaged Footprint for one year now to help understand what environmental impact we are having. Footprint have been monitoring and assessing our Carbon Footprint via their software system and created actions to help reduce this.

The experienced team at Footprint have been there the whole way, supporting and managing our needs for the program, making the whole process easy to understand. And with Footprint managing the program it has had very little impact on our time, which we appreciate.

We look forward to next year, as more people come back to the office and our needs (and carbon footprint) change. We know Footprint will be there to help us reach our goal of Carbon Neutrality in the Melbourne office in the years ahead.’

– Grant Keys, Accountancy Insurance Melbourne
