This work extends the CoLoRFulNNLO subtraction method to address soft and collinear divergences in the computation of higher-order corrections for hadronic collisions. By utilizing universal local counterterms which can be integrated analytically over the unresolved phase space, we achieve numerically stable, fully-differential predictions. Our publicly available NNLOCAL code serves as a proof-of-concept implementation, validated by calculating the NNLO cross-section for Higgs boson production in gluon-gluon fusion with no light quarks.
