The construction sector is under increased pressure to adopt sustainable practices for achieving Net Zero and meet ESG targets. Firstplanit tackles the following pain points faced by building teams:
• fragmented and unreliable data on building materials and products
• difficulty in assessing how product choices align with project goals
• lack of tools for co-creation and time efficiency
Existing tools are like libraries that list materials, not impact. Others are limited to carbon accounting. Benchmarking, quantitative analytics and collaboration capabilities required during multi-factorial decision making is missing.
By analysing more than 250 data points for every building product, Firstplanit ensures social, cost and health benefits are not sacrificed in the path of low carbon transition.
Firstplanit facilitates the sustainable transition of the construction sector through a unique set of features:
• Environmental Risk Map using GIS (Air, Noise, Heat, Flood)
• Materials Library with over 10,000 evaluated building products
• AI engine for material recommendations
• Project Planner with detailed quantity & cost estimates
• Reporting on ESG disclosures, SDGs and Sustainability Frameworks
Being first movers in the industry, we have leveraged our position and already completed many successful pilots. Assisting our partners in their low carbon transition path and proving the platform’s market readiness level.
