SmartWaste

Environmental site monitoring and reporting software.

SmartWaste will help you...

Improve records access

Control access to company and project information easily with secure multi-user access levels, 24/7 (where reliable internet access is available). You can manage Duty of Care waste management records to ensure compliance and accuracy of waste reporting with complete transparency and auditability.

Save time and money

Cut costs through targeted and achievable reductions in resource use and waste. Save time by storing all of your project info, waste records and other evidence in one secure location for instant access whenever and wherever you are.

Enhance performance management

Use KPIs to track and compare real-time project performance across multiple-impact areas. Allow users to measure other site impacts. Use the SmartWaste Benchmark Calculator to estimate waste forecasts for new-build construction projects.

Reduce environmental impact

Reduce environmental impacts on your projects by cutting waste, improving site management, and reducing energy, water, materials and transport use. For projects being BREEAM assessed, this can be tied in with relevant credits across these areas to maximise the BREEAM rating.

Why SmartWaste?

When it comes to your construction or demolition site environmental impacts, it’s important to understand where your project can be saving time and money, whilst improving performance and becoming more sustainable.

SmartWaste can be used across a supply chain, with organisations inputting site data relevant to them, for the client or principal contractor to report and analyse, giving the vital information to identify trends and areas of improvement.

You can already record waste and other project impacts through SmartWaste, including water, energy, materials (eg. timber), etc. but it doesn’t stop there.

Based on feedback from our customers, the SmartWaste team have been busy developing several new modules which are now available to all our members, giving you even more areas to monitor, measure and report on than ever before.
These include:

Incident and Complaints
Ecological and Biodiversity
Considerate Constructors Scheme

These new modules will help our members meet the ever-increasing demands for project monitoring as well as the requirements of BREEAM New Construction standards.
