About C-DISC Technologies

Green Construction

Sector - Construction & Building

C-DISC Technologies (Centre for Development of Innovative and Sustainable Construction) builds net-zero energy homes and sustainable construction solutions. They wanted to validate the ESG performance of their designs - not just at the product level but across operations and supply chains.

Pre-engineered construction solutions
Disaster-resilient building technologies
Minimized natural resource consumption

The Challenge

Beyond Energy Modelling

C-DISC needed to demonstrate holistic ESG performance across materials, labour, community, and governance - not just energy efficiency metrics.

Sustainability Claims Gap

Many sustainability claims in the green-building space, but limited structured ESG validation to back them up.

Holistic ESG Profile

Need to go beyond energy modelling and show a holistic ESG profile - materials, labour, community, governance.

Data-Backed Positioning

Desire to use data-backed sustainability metrics in client proposals, investor discussions, and brand positioning.

Our Solution

Construction-Sector SIM Assessment

Assessment Approach

The SIM assessment evaluated key performance areas and compared them with benchmark standards in India:

Building energy efficiency
Material selection & sourcing
On-site waste management
Worker welfare & safety records
Community impact assessment

What We Delivered

SIM Scorecard & ESG report with strengths & gaps
Communication-ready summary for stakeholder engagement
Certification roadmap (wellness & net-zero)
Improvement areas for policy formalisation & data capture

Evidence-Based Assessment

Documentation Reviewed

Our assessment was based on comprehensive evidence collection and verification of C-DISC's sustainability practices across all operational areas.

Evidence Reviewed

Design specifications of office space
Energy consumption reports
Supplier information & material sourcing
On-site operational practices
Safety records & worker welfare
Internal policies & governance

Validated Strengths

Design efficiency excellence
Responsible materials use
Lower carbon footprint vs conventional methods
Strong sustainability ethos

Improvement Areas

Formalisation of internal policies
Pursuit of third-party certifications
More structured data capture
Enhanced documentation processes

Key Outcomes

Environmental Impact Validated

Lower Material Consumption Pre-engineered systems and optimised structural designs significantly reduce materials used

Minimised Waste Integrated foundations and streamlined approaches reduce site disturbance and waste

Shorter Timelines Faster construction leading to lower energy use and reduced emissions

SIM Assessment & Reporting Impact

The reporting process enables C-DISC to identify, measure, and document the environmental benefits embedded in its technologies. By translating technical performance into structured sustainability indicators, C-DISC can now communicate its impact more effectively to stakeholders.

Transparency & Credibility

Building Trust with Data

Sustainability reporting reflects the transparency of C-DISC. This enhances their credibility, supports informed decision-making, and strengthens C-DISC's positioning in green and climate-resilient construction projects.

Enhanced Credibility Informed Decision-Making Stronger Positioning

Green Construction Leader

C-DISC is now positioned as a credible leader in sustainable construction with data-backed ESG performance metrics.

What's Next

Continuous Innovation Journey

Future SIM cycles can expand C-DISC's sustainability measurement and drive product innovation:

Incorporate Additional Projects Extend SIM coverage to new construction projects and developments

Track Lifetime Performance Monitor and measure the sustainability performance of built homes over time

Inform Product Innovation Use insights to develop low-carbon materials and systems

Net-Zero Ready

C-DISC's pre-engineered systems, integrated foundations, and optimised structural designs support more responsible use of natural resources and a smaller overall carbon footprint.
