Impact Loop offers the Niscai platform, a data‑driven marketplace that provides product‑level whole‑life cost and carbon information at the point of procurement. Buyers can model usage scenarios, compare equipment side‑by‑side, and generate tender‑ready outputs, while manufacturers upload verified data and digital product passports to showcase long‑term value and meet reporting regulations. The platform helps organisations reduce total cost of ownership, lower scope‑3 emissions, and accelerate compliance with sustainability standards.

Problem
Procurement of commercial equipment often relies on upfront price alone, ignoring whole‑life costs such as energy use, maintenance, service life, and replacement cycles. This leads to decisions that increase operational expenses and carbon emissions across large estates.
Solution
Impact Loop provides the Niscai platform, a data‑driven marketplace that delivers structured, product‑level whole‑life cost and carbon information at the point of decision. Buyers can compare equipment side‑by‑side, model real‑world usage scenarios, and quantify total cost of ownership and emissions in seconds. Manufacturers upload verified product data, including carbon footprints and digital product passports, to showcase long‑term value and meet emerging reporting regulations. The platform generates tender‑ready outputs and dynamic benchmarking tools that support procurement, finance, sustainability, and sales teams in making evidence‑based selections. By centralising this intelligence, Impact Loop helps organisations reduce costs, lower scope‑3 emissions, and accelerate compliance with regulations such as the EU Digital Product Passport.
Target Audience
Primary users are procurement, finance, and sustainability teams in sectors such as foodservice, healthcare, and data centres, as well as equipment manufacturers seeking to demonstrate whole‑life value and regulatory compliance.
