Establish a Reliable Emissions Baseline
Carbon Account Builder
From untamed data silos to tidy, structured carbon footprint easily update your emissions data in real-time, or just at key reporting junctures, to quickly identify and understand emission hotspots, such as supply chain transport, and opportunity for cost / carbon reduction projects. Whether you and your team are starting with emissions data from a consultant-led project, enabling your internal sustainability leads, or creating a new baseline, the Nocomed platfrom centralises your data to empower your sustainability teams to actively manage carbon hotspots, or simply fulfil stakeholder healthcare emissions compliance reporting.
Nocomed’s supported onboarding brings together your internal organisational leaders with our sustainability expertise to ensure your team is empowered to drive data-driven sustainability initiatives across your organisation and supply-chain.
The goal is to understand your carbon footprint at a glance.
Scope 1, 2, and 3 Carbon Measurement
Enables analysis and insights across all three scopes, establishing a clear emissions baseline. From life sciences companies to hospitals, scope 3 emission may account for as much as 80% of your total GHG emissions, making the focus on suppliers critical to future carbon reduction.
GHG Protocol Inventory
Grounded in the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard (GHG), Nocomed workflows guide you through the process of establishing a solid and reliable baseline carbon footprint to support compliance reporting.
Collaboratively manage data collection by assigning sites or discrete processes to your team members in keeping with existing responsibilities. A employee commuting survey captures Scope 3, Category 7 emissions.
Fugitive Emissions Tracking
Nocomed allows you to track unique life sciences sectoral data points, including dedicated datasets for refrigerants, theatre gases and inhalers, listing equipment type (e.g., chillers, refrigerators, air conditioners) and the specific gases used.
Flexible Data Upload
Nocomed supports multiple data import capabilities, including Excel/CSV records, AI-enhanced data extraction, handy survey tools, and manual input.
AI-enhanced data extraction adds valuable data points, such as Global Warming Potential (GWP), for refrigerant gases and energy usage, directly from images of equipment labels, ensuring accurate CO2e (equivalent) calculations.
Real-time Data Collection
Add utility data, mileage records, and other emissions sources directly into Nocomed with automatic tCO2e (tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent) calculations. No more manual conversions or formula errors.
Updates flow through to you and colleagues dashboard in real-time, giving your team instant visibility into emissions changes as data is entered across sites.
Built-in Guidance
Nocomed is designed with intuitive workflows and, should you need it, built-in help resources to empower you and your team to get a handle on emissions data without necessitating becoming a sustainability expert.
Our on-boarding service includes a sustainability expert ensuring your organisational boundaries and emissions are properly accounted for. Should you need a bit more guidance, our friendly support team is just an email away.
Data Security & Information Standards
Gather and manage all your emissions data in one place. At all times you continue to own your own data. Enquire about our export capability.
Nocomed data is suitable for third-party verification, such as via CDP and EcoVadis, as required by some healthcare tenders such as NHS Evergreen Sustainability Supplier Level 4.
Robust Platform Security: Operates as a Secure Cloud-based Solution on servers in your region (of choice). (Because emissions data is unrelated to individually identifiable information, the platform is GDPR compliant.)
ISO 27001 Certification. Nocomed systems are aligned also with ISO 9001.
"We identified where our carbon footprint was most intense. Nocomed has helped us find what needs to be in our carbon reduction plan".
Enable Carbon Reduction Planning
Identify Carbon Hotspots
Nocomed's surfaces your highest-impact emission sources, enabling your team to prioritise decarbonisation activity where it matters most. The seven greenhouse gases as covered by the Kyoto Protocol (carbon dioxide [CO2], methane [CH4], nitrous oxide [N2O], hydrofluorocarbons [HFCs], perfluorocarbons [PFCs], sulphur hexafluoride [SF6] and nitrogen trifluoride [NF3]) are reported in tCO2e (tonnes carbon dioxide equivalent).
Setting Your Target Net Zero
Once you understand your carbon accounts, you’ll be able to choose your ‘Net Zero’ target year. Emissions reporting is based on your foundational ‘Net Zero’ year, the year you expect to add ‘zero’ additional greenhouse gases to the atmosphere.
This year also serves as your baseline year to indicate the net emissions reduction, changes in carbon, or other greenhouse gas emissions. For example, the NHS England’s net zero target date is 2045. For the HSE in Ireland, it's 2050.
Establishing your current emissions is a core prerequiste to setting an informed target net zero year.
Track Changes In Emissions
Nocomed provides easy insights into how organisational or site-specific emissions are changing over time. Graphs are easy to understand and provide insight by business process, site or across the various datasets.
From energy sources with reduced carbon output to changing to biodegradable packaging there are many ways to reduce carbon emissions.
Visual Insight Informs Planning
Making emissions data visible allows a clear picture of potential carbon reduction levers to emerge. Approaches to reducing emissions vary by the category of emission and the nature of your organisation. Of course, patient-safety requires lifesciences and healthcare providers to carefully consider and weight up the impact of various carbon reduction projects.
As scope 3 emissions typically make up 80% of overall organisational emissions, they offer rich potential to improve people / planetary / organisational health. Each carbon reduction project requires consideration for patient safety, timely delivery of care, and other clinical considerations, as well as regulatory requirements, capital investment, risk and time to value consideration.

Reduce Transport Emissions
For MedTech suppliers and their healthcare delivery customers, emissions from transport (i.e. scope 3, category 9 emissions and scope 3, category 4) are typically a key consideration, and a potential area for carbon reduction initiatives.
For pharmaceutical logistics, road transport considerations include vehicle size, load factor, and empty running. Where a temperature, light, or humidity-controlled supply chain is required, moving lifesaving medications becomes even more complicated.
Nocomed allows quick insight into where and how carbon is being emitted empowering your team to consider carbon reduction efforts. Be inspired by our benchmark report on carbon reduction projects undertaken by fellow NHS suppliers.
"With Nocomed our supply chain team has the information needed to explore why transportation emission can be reduced. It’s inspired a whole new sustainability mindset and our different teams have data to talk to each other, from procurement to transportation"
Streamline Stakeholder Compliance
Easy Standardised Carbon Reporting
As expectations, standards, and reporting evolve across healthcare and life sciences, the Nocomed platform keeps your data transparent and aligned to emerging requirements. From board-level reporting to operational oversight to standardised annual reports, Nocomed makes emissions reporting simple for all your stakeholders.
With sustainability compliance obligations shifting from voluntary to mandatory, Nocomed reflects those changes, helping life sciences suppliers stay ahead of an evolving healthcare procurement landscape and healthcare delivery organisations better understand and manage sustainability data. With Nocomed emissions data is accessible to the people who need it, eliminating reliance on fragmented manual spreadsheets and reducing administrative burden.
Near Real-time Reporting
Tracking scope 1 and scope 2 emissions are typically where reporting requirements commence as they represent owned and purchased energy. They are, thus, a good place for internal stakeholders to start tracking and reducing emissions. Third-party reporting, including the NHS and HSE, typically also starts with scope 1 and 2 emissions.
As scope 3 emissions may accounts for as much as 80% of total greenhouse gas emissions in life sciences organisations and hospitals, Nocomed provides flexible, transparent reporting for all GHG scopes.
Whether for adhoc internal monthly meetings on a particular organisational aspect, annual sustainability compliance reporting for national tenders, or green procurement within a value-based procurement frameworks, Nocomed covers all your reporting needs.
