In the evolving landscape of energy efficiency and sustainability, the innovative Green Hub software from Brighter Compliance has emerged as a pivotal tool for achieving and maintaining retrofit certification.
As the UK pushes towards its target to reach net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, the push for sustainability and retrofit projects has never been more in demand.
For businesses involved in the sector who wish to gain access to funding opportunities and enhance customer trust, the PAS 2030 and MCS certifications are an essential part of their compliance and growth plans, also being mandatory for companies seeking to participate in government-funded schemes like the Energy Company Obligation (ECO).
The Green Hub software, which was designed to streamline the processes associated with PAS 2030 and MCS certification, addresses the complexities of documentation and compliance, assisting energy-efficiency installers in several key areas:
Pre-Written Procedures Ready for Assessment
Version-controlled procedures are pre-written to comply with PAS 2030 standards, this feature simplifies the initial certification assessment, ensuring that all necessary protocols are in place and up-todate.
Company Profile Management
The platform offers a dedicated area to manage all relevant company information required by certification bodies during assessments, this centralised database ensures that critical data is organised and readily accessible.
Installation Management
Pre-populated forms ensure compliance with both standards, this functionality simplifies the recording of information from design through to customer handover, ensuring ongoing compliance and efficient project management.
People Training and Competency
The system enables easy management of installer and subcontractor records, ensuring full compliance with competency requirements for all standards, this feature is crucial for demonstrating that personnel meet the necessary qualifications and training.
Accessible 24/7
As a cloud-based platform, Green Hub is accessible around the clock, allowing teams to update and view records whenever necessary, ensuring that compliance and project management are not confined to traditional office hours.
Fully Auditable
Due to its organisational strengths, Green Hub is the software of choice for certification bodies, making assessments more straightforward and transparent.
Adapting to Changes in PAS 2030 Standards
To ensure adherence to British Standards, the system is updated regularly to remain fully compliant with the latest standards, helping clients navigate transitions seamlessly.
Managing Director of Brighter Compliance, Austin Gibbons, is delighted with how the software has been received by clients, commenting, ‘Users of Green Hub have reported significant improvements in efficiency and compliance management. With our flexible model and comprehensive training with our clients, they feel at ease using the software and are confident that when their audit arrives, they are prepared and compliant.
As the push to net zero continues, achieving PAS 2030 and MCS certification has never been as important for organisations or professionals looking to work on domestic energy efficiency retrofit projects under government-backed initiatives.
Working within the industry for many years, our experienced team are well versed as to the resources and support required to gain and maintain the standards, however, for small businesses, it can be a daunting process.
Following extremely positive feedback from our clients and the recent announcement that we are the chosen compliance partner of Warmworks in Scotland, we’re delighted that the software is supporting businesses and is helping towards the wider economic impact of sustainability and the UK’s netzero housing goals.’
