Proof level
From an indicative score to a full BPS report - the level of proof your situation requires
BiodivPass, the starting point of your biodiversity journey
BiodivPass is the express diagnostic of the Biodiversity Performance Score (BPS), the framework for assessing the biodiversity performance of built assets, owned by NORMATYS and operated by IRICE. In ten questions, it positions your real estate project against regulatory expectations and the requirements of your stakeholders: investors, local authorities, auditors and future occupants. The result is immediate, free and anonymous - no account is required to obtain your first orientation.
Where the full BPS measures an asset's performance across every theme of the framework - governance, soils, vegetation, fauna, nuisance management - BiodivPass answers an upstream question: does your situation call for biodiversity proof, and at what level? You get an indicative score and a recommended trajectory, from a simple benchmark to an enforceable BPS report reviewed by IRICE. It is the natural entry point before engaging a Biodiversity Partner and launching a formal assessment.
The diagnostic is designed for developers, real estate owners, estate managers and consultancies who want to objectify their exposure before committing budget. It reflects the European and French regulatory context - CSRD and ESRS E4, Directive 2024/825 on environmental claims, Article 35 of the French Climate and Resilience Act - while remaining applicable to an asset located outside France, as the BPS engine is designed to be regionalised.
After the ten questions, you receive an indicative score, a reading of your strengths and risks, and the recommended trajectory to secure your project. You can then explore the detailed BPS methodology, compare your situation with the aggregated results of the Observatory, or contact IRICE directly to launch a full assessment with a Biodiversity Partner. BiodivPass does not replace that assessment: it helps you decide whether, and when, to trigger it.
Frequently asked questions
Is BiodivPass really free?
Yes. The express diagnostic is free, requires no account and is anonymous. You are only contacted if you choose to go further with a full BPS assessment.
How does it differ from a full BPS assessment?
BiodivPass gives an indicative orientation in ten questions. The full BPS assessment is carried out on documented evidence by a Biodiversity Partner and reviewed by IRICE; it produces an enforceable score and report.
Do my answers commit my organisation?
No. BiodivPass is a self-assessment tool for guidance only. No data is published and the result has no certification value.
