- Carbon & Energy Tracking: Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions indicators; energy utility consumption input tables; visual net-zero milestone tracking lines.
- Sustainability Workflows & Admin: Multi-tenant isolation per organization; goal-setting milestones; task dispatch panels for sustainability teams; interactive dashboard charts; custom PDF report exporter engines.
Overview
Built a fully custom multi-organisation carbon management platform on CodeIgniter allowing businesses to track Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions, monitor energy consumption, set and progress net-zero targets, manage sustainability workflows across teams, and export PDF compliance reports — all from a centralised dashboard with role-based admin controls.
Business Problem
Businesses facing increasing pressure to measure, report, and reduce their carbon footprint had no centralised platform to track emissions across all scopes, set net-zero targets, assign sustainability actions to teams, and generate compliance-ready reports for stakeholders — leaving them reliant on spreadsheets and disconnected tools.
