Accounting for Project Carbon Offset Purchases in Corporate Reporting

Hello! 

We have several projects that are either pending ILFI Zero Carbon certification or the owner is planning to purchase offsets to cover construction emissions. Thus far, I have not considered this in our corporate footprint reporting. However, we are including A5 emissions whenever feasible and multiplying that performance over the remaining revenue. If there have been or will be offsets purchased by the owner to cover those emissions for a project, is there an established disclosure methodology by which we as the GC can also document those emissions as having been offset? Has anyone does this before? Have you had the approach third-party audited?

Thanks!
