The secret to Net Zero?
It might be in your supply chain

Get the visibility you need with JOSCAR Zero.  

Many companies struggle to understand the full picture of their environmental footprint, particularly regarding indirect emissions from their supply chain, or scope 3.  

JOSCAR Zero tackles this challenge head-on. It empowers you to calculate, measure, and pinpoint areas for improvement with your suppliers at a site level. This newfound knowledge is key to setting goals and acting on the path to achieving Net Zero.

Here’s 3 ways you can benefit
from JOSCAR Zero

01

Collect and measure your emissions data 

This includes your direct operations (Scope 1), purchased energy (Scope 2), and all indirect emissions from your value chain (Scope 3) – as required by the UK government. This gives you a holistic view of your impact. 


02

Make reporting quick and simple 

JOSCAR Zero streamlines the process with user-friendly tools and a standardised approach. You can gather the necessary data from your suppliers efficiently, saving you time and resources.  


03

Clear Net Zero action plan

 

JOSCAR Zero shows you where to cut emissions and creates a simple plan to help you reach Net Zero. This makes it easy to set realistic goals and act.  


We have developed JOSCAR Zero to help businesses
like yours reach Net Zero

The collaboration with Hellios through JOSCAR Zero will provide us with valuable insights and best practices to accelerate our journey towards a sustainable future.

Four reasons you
should start using
JOSCAR Zero today

A scientific approach to Scope 3

JOSCAR Zero uses precise consumption data, entered by suppliers, to calculate Scope 1, 2 & 3, aligning to the GHG Protocol hybrid methodology to drive real change. 

Whole supply chain initiative

Provides tailored emissions improvement actions for the whole supply chain on a site-by-site basis, improving supplier operating efficiency and reducing costs. 

Collaborate on common actions

Provides sustainability and procurement teams with tailored emissions reduction plans for suppliers, which gives everyone visibility of the areas needed for improvement.  

Simplified reporting

The JOSCAR Zero dashboard is intuitive, making reporting on Scope 3 emission data easy. 


Scope 3 emissions account for more than
70 percent of their carbon footprint*

That’s a lot. And could be a major obstacle on your path to Net Zero.  
JOSCAR Zero can give you visibility on Scope 3 emissions and their hidden impact in your supply chain.
These indirect emissions come from activities like your suppliers' manufacturing processes, product transportation, and even how your customers use your products.  

Without addressing Scope 3, reaching Net Zero becomes much more challenging.
