NZC Pro

Core Features

NZC Pro provides a structured process for calculating and reviewing project emissions as construction progresses. Its capabilities focus on upfront embodied carbon assessment rather than the broader organizational or building-operational accounting functions of other NZC products.

• Upfront Embodied Carbon Calculation: Calculates construction-related emissions across lifecycle stages A1–A5, including the product and construction process stages, following RICS Whole Life Carbon Assessment guidance, version 2.

• Three-Stage Project Reporting: Supports carbon calculations at tender, construction, and as-built stages, allowing project teams to update estimates as materials, suppliers, and construction activities become more clearly defined.

• UK-Specific Carbon Database: Provides access to construction product and material emissions data relevant to the UK market, reducing the need for users to source individual emissions factors manually.

• Carbon Target Setting and Benchmarking: Allows users to establish project carbon targets, compare work-package emissions against industry targets, and monitor performance as projects progress.

• Carbon Hotspot and Reduction Analysis: Identifies significant sources of embodied carbon and provides indications of potential reductions using its construction products and materials database.

• Project Carbon Reporting and Analytics: Generates analytical reports covering emissions, carbon hotspots, savings, and performance against targets. Its reporting approach is aligned with RICS guidance and ISO 14064.

Closing Insights

NZC Pro is part of the carbon management software portfolio developed by UK-based NZC Solutions Ltd. The company introduced its construction-focused carbon calculator in 2025, emphasizing the need for accessible reporting tools using UK-specific emissions data. Among its documented users is Walter Miles Electrical Engineers, a UK electrical design and construction contractor. NZC Solutions reports that the company's carbon reporting strategy helped it secure ongoing work worth approximately £15 million annually.

NZC Solutions continues to develop its modular software offering, with NZC Pro available individually or through Business and Enterprise packages. Organizations requiring broader lifecycle assessments can combine it with NZC Hub, while organizational Scope 1–3 accounting is handled by NZC Plus.
