3ADAPT supported the Royal Botanical Gardens, Kew (RBG Kew) in decarbonising its procurement function, which accounts for about 50% of its carbon footprint, to help achieve its 2030 Climate Positive target. This involved a detailed analysis of procurement data, identification of key suppliers, and development of sustainable procurement practices. 3ADAPT created carbon-focused expectations for suppliers, designed interventions to gather sustainability data, and produced guidance for staff to embed sustainability into procurement policies and tender processes, aligning with RBG Kew's climate and social value goals.

National Lottery Heritage Fund Case Study

3ADAPT assisted the National Lottery Heritage Fund (NLHF) in assessing emissions from its £250 million annual investment in the Heritage Sector. This involved creating a baseline carbon footprint for 2019/20 and establishing a decarbonisation pathway in line with the Science Based Target Initiative (SBTI). 3ADAPT analysed 50 representative projects and engaged with 12 organisations to understand carbon drivers, challenges, and opportunities. The project improved emissions modelling for projects and provided recommendations for incorporating emissions data into NLHF's funding process, supporting sector-wide decarbonisation effort
