New AI Platform Sets a New Standard for Sustainability in Construction

SustainInsight has launched in the UAE, offering construction and real estate companies an AI-driven platform that delivers a real-time, comprehensive view of their sustainability efforts. This tool goes beyond basic carbon accounting by integrating environmental, social, and governance (ESG) data into one accessible hub.

The platform’s release comes as climate regulations tighten and ESG disclosure demands increase, making it critical for companies to verify their sustainability claims accurately and efficiently.

Supporting Key Players and Government Initiatives

SustainInsight recently completed a pilot with the UAE Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure in Ajman and is already assisting major players like DAMAC Properties and Expo City Dubai. The platform consolidates all ESG data, giving firms a 360° perspective that includes social value and corporate governance — areas often overlooked in construction sustainability.

Simplifying Data Management with AI

Construction firms face challenges processing large volumes of diverse data. SustainInsight addresses this by allowing users to upload documents which the AI platform then analyzes using Optical Character Recognition (OCR). It generates reports aligned with international frameworks instantly, saving time and reducing costs.

By providing real-time progress tracking and predictive analytics, the platform helps companies stay on track with sustainability targets, supporting the UAE’s Net Zero 2050 Strategy.

Enhancing Transparency Across the Supply Chain

The platform includes a supplier rating model that benchmarks partners against ESG standards. Suppliers can also generate verified ratings, fostering trust and accountability throughout the supply chain.

Expert Guidance Alongside Technology

Led by CEO Sahen Ahuja, SustainInsight’s team combines local and international expertise in technology, sustainability, and construction. They offer advisory services covering climate change, environmental impact, and corporate responsibility to ensure firms not only meet regulations but also deliver real benefits to stakeholders and the environment.

SustainInsight is offered on an annual subscription basis, with customizable onboarding to fit client needs.

Why This Matters for Construction and Real Estate Firms

  • Streamlined ESG data management reduces administrative burden.
  • Real-time insights enable better decision-making and risk management.
  • Supplier benchmarking improves sustainability performance across projects.
  • Compliance with evolving UAE regulations becomes easier and faster.

For construction and real estate professionals seeking to enhance their sustainability practices efficiently, SustainInsight provides a practical, all-in-one solution that integrates the full spectrum of ESG factors.
