Introducing PathWWay: Your Bespoke ESG Model

What is PathWWay?


PathWWay is our bespoke approach which enables organisations to highlight their ESG and Sustainability ambitions across a range of criteria, including governance, energy and environmental, and incorporating broader aspects such as social value and ecological impact.

Unlike traditional approaches, PathWWay goes beyond compliance by offering a bespoke, stakeholder-led approach that aligns with client-specific goals and priorities.

PathWWay can be used both to define and develop ESG strategy at the organisational level and in the delivery of projects at multiple levels, including masterplans, buildings and other client initiatives. The model defines key performance indicators across a range of themes and priorities and provides the mechanism both to report performance at a corporate level and to transpose into project requirements.

PathWWay highlights client ambition through measurements against the definition of performance targets at 3 levels

Level 1: Conform

Typically, a regulatory minimum i.e. minimum planning requirements or building regulations.

Level 2: Optimise

Aiming to achieve the best possible level for the specific activity. This is aiming for Current Best in Class performance.

Level 3: Innovate

Target which is achievable, but challenging, and likely requiring a level of innovation or new thinking. Designed to deliver long-term value.

Designed to be robust yet flexible, PathWWay integrates seamlessly with existing systems and delivers valuable insights via a dynamic digital dashboard. Dashboards can be project by project, or at organisational level and can be displayed on screens or accessed from anywhere so you can track and display progress.

Why PathWWay Solves Real-World Challenges

Organisations today face increasing pressure from stakeholders, regulators, and the market to demonstrate their commitment to sustainability. However, navigating the ESG landscape can be daunting, given the complexity and variety of hundreds of standards, certifications, and expectations.

PathWWay addresses these challenges by offering:

  1. Tailored Solutions: PathWWay is not a one-size-fits-all certification scheme. It defines performance targets specific to your sector, goals, and operational context, making it a highly customised approach.
  2. Strategic Alignment: : Whether for business strategy, portfolio management, or individual projects, PathWWay ensures alignment with key regulatory, planning, and stakeholder requirements.
  3. Three Levels of Ambition: From conforming to regulations, optimising best-in-class practices, to driving innovation, PathWWay sets clear levels of ambition for every goal, enabling organisations to scale their efforts effectively.
  4. Iterative and Insight-Driven: Unlike static certification models, PathWWay is iterative, allowing teams to test, refine, and improve their ESG initiatives continuously.
  5. Integrated Reporting: By connecting directly to leading ESG reporting frameworks, PathWWay simplifies compliance and showcases progress through standardised, insightful reports.

WWe are on our own PathWWay

WWe are committed to our own ESG Goals and are using PathWWay to deliver our ESG strategy.

It is built around seven themes, each underpinned by a number of key priorities. Activities across the business are aligned to the themes and priorities including Governance, Energy/Carbon, Wellbeing & Social Value.

Additionally, we are seeking other accreditation and will be sharing our journey as we go, highlighting a commitment to a beyond compliance level across all aspects of our ESG agenda.

Why You Should Get in Touch

The world of ESG can be overwhelming and often organisations are on the wrong path, working on accreditations that don’t always lend value to their goals. PathWWay is a bespoke, consultancy process that equips organisations with the knowledge and modelling to lead in sustainability. By adopting PathWWay, you will

  • Enhance reputation and trust among stakeholders by transparently demonstrating ESG commitments.
  • Mitigate risks and secure access to funding through improved compliance and forward-thinking sustainability practices.
  • Drive operational efficiency and uncover opportunities for innovation that deliver long-term value.
  • Find cost savings through energy-efficient systems, water conservation and waste reduction, which lower operational costs.
