VERDCORE - 2026 Pricing, Features, Reviews & Alternatives

VerdCore is environmental compliance software built for UK construction contractors and SMEs. It replaces spreadsheets and manual consultant work with a structured platform for logging site data and generating the reports and certificates that tenders, clients, and planning authorities require.

Core modules:

- Carbon tracking: Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions from fuel, materials, transport and waste, calculated against official DEFRA GHG conversion factors, broken down by site and activity.

- Water and waste tracking: five water streams (fresh use, recycling, discharge, rainwater harvesting, temporary supply) and waste tracking by disposal route, feeding a Site Waste Management Plan.

- Environmental Management Plans: nine fixed sections with a compliance score, plus a shared Site Inspections and Environmental Incidents log (category, risk level, photo and GPS evidence, assignee, deadline, Pass/Fail result).

- Biodiversity Net Gain calculator: built on the Defra Biodiversity Metric 4.0, modeling habitat units and evidencing the mandatory 10% net gain.

- Material Passports: a digital inventory per material (manufacturer, recycled content, disassembly instructions, planned end-of-life route) driving a Circularity Score.

- Supply Chain ESG questionnaires: no-account-needed forms for subcontractors, auto-scored across Carbon, Waste, and BNG.

- Compliance reports and certificates: a Carbon Summary, PAS 2080:2023 report, PPN 06/21 Carbon Reduction Plan, and 9 compliance certificate types, each showing methodology and DEFRA source year.

- CSV export across every module (carbon logs, waste, water, inspections, incidents, KPIs, suppliers) for use in external BI tools or by auditors.

Technical and security details:

- Built on Google Firebase (Firestore + Firebase Authentication); Firebase infrastructure is ISO 27001 certified and SOC 2 / SOC 3 compliant.

- Firestore Security Rules scope all data access to the authenticated user's own account (UID-scoped); data is only readable/writable by the account it belongs to.

- All data in transit is encrypted via TLS/HTTPS; the application enforces a strict Content Security Policy and HSTS.

- Installable as an offline-capable Progressive Web App, site staff can log entries with no signal, syncing automatically once back online.

- No third-party software integrations (e.g., accounting or procurement platforms) at this time; data portability is handled via CSV export.

Pricing: Free (2 active sites), Pro from £19/month (unlimited sites, AI-generated carbon reduction recommendations, BNG calculator), Business from £49/month (team seats, KPI dashboards, branded reports), and custom Enterprise plans with white-label reports, API access, and SSO.
