Carbon reporting can take hours of extra work or rely on estimates that reduce accuracy. Re-flow’s PAS 2080 module cuts this to minutes by integrating carbon management with existing workflows and data capture on site.
Re-flow, a field management software provider, designed its PAS 2080 add-on to draw carbon data directly from the daily planning, scheduling and delivery tasks teams already perform. This means carbon reporting becomes a by-product of normal operations, not an extra job.
Carbon data captured without disruption
The PAS 2080 standard sets out a framework for managing and reporting carbon in infrastructure projects. Re-flow’s module runs inside its Field Management system, widely used by UK highways teams to plan and manage assets, jobs and resources.
Users enter familiar daily return information covering equipment use, journeys, materials and waste. The software calculates carbon emissions automatically from this input, requiring no new forms or processes to learn. This approach saves time and reduces errors compared to separate carbon management systems.
Tools focused on practical carbon measurement
The module includes a range of features designed to reflect real project activity. Pre-job carbon estimations forecast emissions based on planned items and resources.
Assets and materials can be assigned carbon scores, either entered manually or imported from approved industry standards. Route planning functions account for vehicle mileage involved in delivering materials or travelling to sites.
Once jobs are complete, the system produces full carbon reports based on actual usage data – including plant operation, vehicle journeys and waste. Flexible reporting options help address missing supplier data or complex scenarios, maintaining data integrity for audit purposes.
Supporting roles across the business
For boards and business owners, the module delivers reliable carbon reports to demonstrate compliance and operational standards to clients, enhancing competitive positioning.
Environmental leads benefit from detailed, consistent data built continuously from daily activity, reducing time spent chasing or assembling information.
Commercial and bid teams use carbon estimates grounded in real job inputs to prepare more accurate tenders. Operations schedulers see carbon impacts alongside job and resource plans, enabling better decision-making.
Crucially, supervisors and site teams face no change to their routines. They complete the same forms and perform normal tasks while carbon data gathers automatically in the background.
Auditors and reviewers obtain traceable reports linked directly to source data, underpinned by a clear methodology and audit trail aligned with PAS 2080 requirements.
Ready for UK highways projects
By embedding carbon management within a familiar platform, Re-flow minimises disruption and improves the quality of carbon reporting on UK highways projects. It aligns with regulations such as the Traffic Management Act and supports Sector Scheme compliance through accurate data capture and auditability.
Contractors and local authorities can maintain focus on delivering Highways England and council schemes with confidence that carbon compliance is integrated into everyday workflows.
Experience it at Traffex
Re-flow will demonstrate its PAS 2080 module at Traffex, held at the CBS Arena, Coventry, on 21–22 May 2026. Visitors can find the team at Stand C25 to explore how carbon compliance becomes a seamless part of daily operations.
