Carbon Reduction Plan
Supplier name: Blue Door Software Limited
Publication date: January 2024
Commitment to achieving Net Zero
Blue Door Software Limited is committed to achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050.
Baseline Emissions Footprint
Baseline emissions are a record of the greenhouse gases that have been produced in the past and were produced prior to the introduction of any strategies to reduce emissions. Baseline emissions are the reference point against which emissions reduction can be measured.

Emissions reduction targets
In order to continue our progress to achieving Net Zero, we have adopted the following carbon reduction targets.
We project that carbon emissions will decrease over the next four years to 1.5 tCO2e by 2027. This is a reduction of 25% from 2022
Carbon Reduction Projects
Completed Carbon Reduction Initiatives
The following environmental management measures and projects have been completed or implemented since the 2022 baseline.
- Purchase of a fully electric company car, replacing a diesel model
- Installation of LED lighting controls
- Cessation of air conditioned office space
- Vastly reduced travel by road, sea and air
In the future we hope to implement further measures such as further reduced travel by road, sea or air and even greater use of remote meeting tools such as Zoom and Teams, particularly for internal meetings.
