The platform

What's included?

What you get, and why it pays for itself.

  • Professional quoting tool

    Assessor

    Build and issue branded, itemised quotes for DEC and EPC work in a few clicks, using consistent pricing rules. You win more work by responding faster than competitors still quoting from spreadsheets, and every quote leaves your business looking credible and consistent.

  • Easy-to-access database of all UK DECs & EPCs

    Assessor

    A single searchable source for every lodged DEC and EPC in the UK, without trawling the national registers building by building. Research that used to take hours becomes a matter of seconds, and you're always working from the actual lodged data rather than assumptions.

  • Interactive map and pre-made reports

    Assessor

    See certificate coverage, ratings and expiry status plotted geographically, with ready-built reports behind every view. Patterns and clusters jump out immediately, so you can plan efficient survey routes and spot opportunities you'd never see in a list.

  • Upcoming expirations and all expired DECs

    Assessor

    Live visibility of certificates about to lapse and those already out of date, filtered however you need. For compliance teams it's an early warning system; for assessors and providers it's a continuously refreshed pipeline of buildings that need work now.

  • Relevant contact details and frameworks

    Assessor

    Where available, records carry the responsible contact and any procurement framework the building sits under. You approach the right person through the right route first time, cutting out the cold-call guesswork and shortening the path to a purchase order.

  • Customised reports for your buildings, area or region

    Assessor

    Define the exact portfolio, postcode area or region you care about and generate reports scoped to it. You get output that's directly usable in board packs, bids and client updates, without editing out thousands of irrelevant records.

  • CRM / CAFM output

    Assessor

    Export records in formats built to drop straight into your CRM or CAFM system. Opportunities and compliance data flow into the tools your teams already use, with no rekeying and no risk of two versions of the truth.

  • Portfolio uploading and management tools

    Assessor

    Upload your own building list and have it matched against the national certificate data, then manage it as a live portfolio. You get a clear, maintained picture of compliance status across your estate and can prove it on demand.

  • Dedicated software support

    Assessor

    A named support route with people who understand both the software and the certification regime behind it. Questions get answered by someone who knows the domain, so issues are resolved quickly and your team gets value from the system sooner.

  • Up to 3 licences

    Business

    Three named user seats included as standard. Your surveying, bid and compliance staff can all work in the platform at once, rather than queuing behind a single shared login or passing exports around by email.

  • Customisable dashboards

    Business

    Arrange the metrics, maps and lists that matter to each user's role and save the layout. Everyone opens the system to information that's immediately relevant to them, which drives day-to-day use rather than occasional log-ins.

  • Database of energy survey providers and areas covered

    Enterprise

    A reference list of assessors and survey firms with the geographies they operate in. Sourcing capability for a new region takes minutes, and you can benchmark coverage before committing to a tender or a national contract.

  • Enterprise licence agreement

    Enterprise

    Organisation-wide access under a single commercial agreement, so procurement, IT and the people using the system are all covered.
