How it works
Footprinter™ is an easy-to-use web-based tool that connects over the internet to Best Foot Forward's unique and comprehensive EcoIndex™ database. Each unique login is associated with its own set of footprint 'icons' tailored to your needs so you don't have to wade through lots of complicated information before calculating your footprint.

The free trial version of Footprinter™ is pre-loaded with default conversion factors for transport and utilities as well as some food, materials and products. In the full version of Footprinter™ these can be added to as required to meet your specific needs, and can include food, materials and products. For example, if you want to footprint the emissions from individual makes of car, then - no problem. Just contact Best Foot forward and we will add these to your dataset.

In addition, the standard data 'tabs' for Transport, Utilities, Food, Materials and Products can be renamed, augmented or replaced by others. This can be handy if you want to map the data onto specific stages in your supply chain.

Multiple users in an organisation can access the same dataset allowing large companies to provide all of their satellite offices, divisions or indeed suppliers with access to the tool and then aggregate the information to look at the whole organisation centrally.

A simple drag and drop, icon driven interface makes it easy to add and remove data.

Charts dynamically update in real-time as data is added, removed and changed.

Different scenarios can be compared side by side allowing users to experiment with alternative data and understand the true effects of different strategies.
