The Project

‍

BDG architecture + design engaged Inhabit to develop a comprehensive Net-Zero Strategy tailored to their specific operations and goals. The project involved a thorough review of BDG's existing practices across various areas, including energy, water, and waste management, as well as an analysis of their supply chain. BDG sought Inhabit's expertise to help them formalise their commitment to environmental responsibility, establish a clear and actionable path toward achieving net-zero emissions, and align their operations with leading sustainability standards.

‍

Impact

‍

The primary outcome of the collaboration was the development of a comprehensive action plan tailored to BDG architecture + design's specific needs and aspirations for achieving net-zero emissions. This plan provides a structured framework for BDG to implement sustainable practices across their operations and to track progress toward their targets. BDG architecture + design is now actively taking steps to prioritise and implement the recommendations outlined in the action plan, demonstrating their ongoing commitment to sustainability. We look forward to future collaboration to ensure BDG remain on the right trajectory to meet their targets.

Next Steps

‍

BDG architecture + design is focused on taking concrete steps to implement the action plan developed in collaboration with Inhabit. This involves prioritising the various recommendations and reviewing against. BDG is committed to integrating the strategy into its ongoing operations. Key priorities include engaging with suppliers to encourage more sustainable practices and establishing clear metrics to track improvements. BDG also recognises the value of ongoing collaboration and communication to ensure the successful execution of its climate strategy.
