PAS 2080:2023 10.1.1: Asset owners/managers write carbon into contracts

What does 10.1.1 require?

The owner or manager looks at how the terms it gives designers, constructors and suppliers, or the shape of its delivery model, could help it live up to clause 4 and the carbon management process; treats whole life carbon as a performance driver and steers away from prescriptive specification; keeps demands proportionate to the work stage; keeps the contracted party regularly informed of how the contract is performing against the agreed carbon targets and other requirements, and reviews or re-incentivises that performance with the same weight as cost and programme; where fitting, writes in data management and information exchange duties, incentives that reward whole life carbon performance, and room to challenge asset standards that stand in the way of low-carbon performance; backs risk allocation that lets novel, unproven low-carbon solutions in; and rewards collaborative contract forms across the chain that get the most carbon out.
