Recent announcements requiring Highways Agency contractors and supply chain participants to comply with the new PAS 2080:2023 standard have shaken the industry.

This webinar will provide an overview of PAS 2080, its direct impact on your business, and the steps needed to achieve compliance. Whether you are a designer, constructor, or supplier in infrastructure and consultancy, this standard will affect you at any tier of the supply chain.

This webinar is delivered by Julie Adams a Carbon, Cost and Procurement Consultant with Auditel, a leading Cost, Procurement and Carbon specialist organisation.

Overview

Key topics include:

  • PAS 2080 Overview: Understanding the standard and its implications for your business.
  • Compliance Strategies: Practical approaches to becoming compliant with PAS 2080, including network thinking and project-based whole project carbon management.

Additionally, we will discuss the Cross Border Carbon Accounting Mechanism (CBAM) and its role in driving urgent action on embedded and whole life carbon, especially concerning exports of materials like cement, steel, aluminium, and fertilizers. This segment will cover the clear impacts on the construction market and supply chain both in the UK and internationally, aiming to inform and guide you through these changes.

Equip yourself with the knowledge and strategies to navigate these significant industry shifts and ensure your business remains compliant and competitive.
