Biodiversity Net Gain Tool
“Effortless Biodiversity Net Gain Compliance – Fast, Affordable, Accurate”
Make your BNG compliance hassle-free. Get started today!
Step-by-Step Project Wizard
The BNG cloud software tool streamlines compliance with biodiversity net gain (BNG) requirements for you and your team. It guides you step-by-step through the process, providing all the information and resources you need to meet statutory obligations efficiently. With the tool’s assistance, you’ll confidently achieve a compliant solution tailored to your specific site.
Small Site Metric (SSM)
The biodiversity metric used depends on your development’s size and type. The Small Site Metric (SSM) applies to ‘small sites,’ including 1 to 9 houses on land up to 1 hectare, or under 0.5 hectares if the number of houses is unknown. It also covers commercial buildings under 1,000 square meters or on land smaller than 1 hectare. The SSM doesn’t require a qualified ecologist but does require a competent person who has the knowledge and skills to perform specified tasks to complete and review the biodiversity metric.
Essential Documents for Submission
The tool streamlines the process by generating all the key documents needed for submission to the Local Planning Authority. You’ll receive a completed Small Site Metric, detailing the biodiversity value of your site and any impacts from development.
In addition, the tool provides a Biodiversity Gain Plan, outlining how your project will achieve net biodiversity gain. This includes baseline habitat assessments and post-development projections, ensuring a clear comparison of the site’s ecological state before and after development. These documents ensure your project meets biodiversity net gain requirements efficiently
“The process, once mastered, is actually brilliant and works to show how enhancement of biodiversity is possible” Ken from Asgard House
