In this context, tools such as the Biotope Area Factor (BAF) offer ways to limit soil sealing. However, as committed players in the construction industry, we at GSE felt the need to go beyond these approaches to fully integrate wildlife \u2013 both animals and plants \u2013 into our projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With this in mind, we have devised and developed our own biodiversity approach, specifically designed to meet the operational and environmental requirements of real estate construction.

This new tool brings several benefits:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Comprehensive &amp; accurate assessment: <\/strong>it measures the ecological quality of a project from all perspectives (sealed surfaces, permeable spaces and green spaces).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Design input<\/strong>: it promotes the integration and enhancement of biodiversity from the earliest stages of project design.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Eco-friendly guidance: <\/strong>the tool is designed to guide our clients towards measurable, reproducible and ambitious approaches that help preserve and regenerate biodiversity.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By creating this indicator, we are affirming our commitment to rethinking the way we build, placing wildlife at the heart of our projects.

The Blue Suite\u00ae is therefore a strategic management tool that supports our clients in the development of projects that meet ambitious environmental performance criteria \u2013 whether in the logistics, industrial or services sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the pillars of this approach is the GSE <strong>COMPASS<\/strong>, a visualisation tool that brings together all the solutions selected in terms of energy performance, carbon reduction and biodiversity integration. For this last criterion, the <strong>calculation is based on GSE\u2019s biodiversity factor<\/strong>, specially designed by our experts in collaboration with our environmental engineer.
