Enabling precise tracking and optimization of carbon emissions across projects
One-to-One Solution, a forward-looking construction firm, wanted to strengthen its sustainability strategy by addressing one of industry’s most pressing issues: carbon emissions. While the company collected data on materials and processes, it lacked a systematic way to calculate and compare emissions at the project level. NEXATEK partnered with GreenBuild to develop a custom CO₂ Emission Calculator, turning raw data into actionable insights that enabled measurable reductions in environmental impact.
- No standardized method to track CO₂ emissions, leaving teams dependent on fragmented data and rough estimates.
- Lack of project-level visibility, making it impossible to compare emissions across different construction sites.
- Difficulty identifying optimization opportunities, as emission hotspots in materials and processes were hidden.
- Limited ability to report transparently, weakening credibility with clients, regulators, and sustainability-focused investors.
- High reliance on manual calculations, slowing decision-making and increasing the risk of inconsistencies.
NEXATEK's team combined scientific expertise with software engineering to deliver a tailored solution for GreenBuild. At its core, the CO₂ Emission Calculator integrated a reliable database of materials and processes with an easy-to-use interface. The tool automated emission calculations for each project, provided breakdowns by activity and material, and highlighted opportunities for reduction. By embedding emission factors directly into workflows, GreenBuild’s teams could assess sustainability performance in real time and make more informed design and construction decisions.
The CO₂ Emission Calculator empowered GreenBuild to:
- Establish a transparent and standardized approach to emissions tracking.
- Compare project-level emissions and set clear sustainability benchmarks.
- Identify high-impact areas for reduction, leading to smarter material and process choices.
- Strengthen credibility with clients and regulators through reliable, data-driven reporting.
- Reduce reliance on manual work, freeing teams to focus on innovation and design.
