OCIS
For Companies

Know your ecological footprint. Then do something specific about it.

OCIS measures your company's pressure on climate and ocean systems, identifies where it concentrates, and connects the hotspots to verified regenerative projects. Built for companies that would rather reduce an impact than purchase a claim about it.

The Sequence

Measure, understand, reduce, contribute, report

  1. 01

    Measure

    An eight-part questionnaire covering energy, transport, water, materials, supply chain and governance. Scope 1, 2 and 3 are estimated from your activity data using published emission factors.

  2. 02

    Understand

    A 100-point score across seven weighted categories, a value-chain pressure map, and an explicit list of your data gaps — because a footprint you cannot audit is not a footprint.

  3. 03

    Reduce

    A mitigation strategy sequenced across immediate, short and long term, grounded in your actual hotspots. Reduction comes before funding, always.

  4. 04

    Contribute

    Verified regenerative projects from the OCIS registry, ranked against your hotspots, region and priorities — with integrity scores and dMRV status attached.

  5. 05

    Report

    An evidence library mapped to CSRD, GRI, ISSB and TNFD disclosures, stating exactly what your assessment supplies and what it does not.

The Scoring Model

Seven categories, 100 points

Weighted so that measured performance counts for more than stated intent, and so that the ocean-facing dimensions conventional carbon accounting omits are actually scored.

20Carbon and Energy ImpactGreenhouse gas intensity across Scope 1, 2 and 3 relative to sector peers, and the share of renewable energy.
15Water and Ocean ImpactWater withdrawal intensity, water-stress exposure, effluent management and pressure on coasts and waterways.
15Land and Biodiversity ImpactLand footprint, proximity to protected or sensitive habitat, deforestation risk and nature commitments.
15Materials and Waste ImpactVirgin material intensity, packaging burden, waste generated and diversion from landfill.
15Supply Chain RiskSupplier traceability, environmental data coverage, procurement standards and high-risk sourcing exposure.
10Circularity and Reduction ActionsReduction and circular-economy measures already implemented, not merely planned.
10Reporting ReadinessData quality, inventory completeness, framework alignment and external assurance.
Integrity

We will not sell you an offset

Funding a restoration project is a contribution, not a licence to keep emitting. OCIS states precisely what each level of evidence lets you claim — and what it would take to claim more.

Internal reduction

Claimable

Emissions and resource use you have actually eliminated inside your own operations and value chain. This is the only category that reduces your footprint.

Mitigation through project support

Claimable

Funding regenerative projects. Reportable as environmental action and expenditure — not as a reduction of your own footprint.

Offsetting claim

Not a reduction

Requires retired, third-party-verified carbon credits under a recognised standard. OCIS does not issue credits and cannot support this claim.

Verified environmental outcome

Not a reduction

Requires independent verification of the project outcome. dMRV reports are monitoring evidence, not third-party verification.

Early-stage impact support

Claimable

Backing projects before outcomes exist. Report as contribution to innovation and capacity, with no quantified impact attached.

Sector Models

Calibrated per sector

Each sector carries its own intensity benchmarks and material pressure profile, so a logistics firm and an aquaculture operation are not judged against the same yardstick.

Start with what you already know

You do not need a complete emissions inventory to begin. Enter what you have, and the assessment will tell you which missing data would most improve its confidence.

Start an assessment

This is a screening-level estimate built from self-reported activity data and published average emission factors. It is not a verified greenhouse gas inventory and does not constitute assurance under any reporting standard.
