  1. Sustainability A Practical overview of implications and issues to improving environmental performance

  2. Rethinking Construction Partnership Forum Sustainable Development Quote (Brundtland Commission) 1987 A pattern of resource use that aims to meet human needs while preserving the environment so that these needs can be met not only in the present but also for future generations. Social Economic Environment Bearable Equitable Sustainable Viable

  3. Simple Steps for Office /Site/DepotsHow to get going:- Review:- • Energy Usage • Water Usage • CO2 Emissions • Waste Practices • Material Recycling • Transport Usage • Collate Information • Set Benchmark • Set Improvement Targets/Objectives

  4. Sustainability Practical Ways to influence change

  5. Sustainability Cruden Outcomes – Monitor and reporting per Construction Excellence Formula based on turnover to usage Energy Meter Readings Monthly returns Fuels usage Monthly returns Water Meter Reading Monthly returns CO2 Emissions Energy Fuel use, water, waste Vehicles – monthly returns Commercial Register – Monthly returns Vehicle Movements Waste Waste Reports – Monthly returns Generation Waste Waste Reports – Monthly returns Recycling

  6. Sustainability Supply Chain Implications

  7. Continual Improvement/ • Improved Efficiencies • From traditional build with traditional procurement and traditional defects. • To • C4SH level 4/5 • Modern methods of Construction • 50 properties zero defects at handover • seven handovers on 9 predicted date in a shorter period

  8. 2001 2001 2005 2008 Traditional Sustainable Homes Codes 3/4 Eco Homes PASS Eco Homes GOOD / VERY GOOD Introduction of Closed Panel System Construction Milestones 2013 2016 Sustainable Homes Codes 5 Sustainable Homes Codes 6 On Site this year

  9. Be Prepared

  10. From this

  11. To this in 20 days

  12. What have we changed (Lean) • Encouraged Standardisation and repetition • Maximised off site manufacture • Reduced Waste in all forms by reducing and eliminating operations • Standardised timber frame design and minimise design costs • Standardise teams for • Client • Contractor • Designers • Subcontractors • Supplier • Improved familiarity and co-operation between teams and supply chain with products • Allocated ownership to problems and issues and visually monitor the resolution • Prioritised early spend on critical issues/risks • Trialled different construction techniques

  13. What are the Benefits? • Highly Insulated efficient buildings U valves 50% improved Air tightness results of 3.5 • 25% fewer deliveries to site • 50% fewer movements on site vehicles • Recycled materials/waste – 89% • Significant noise level reductions • 60% reduction in building waste • Confidence in cost and programme – known outturn costs • 9 week Lean target Programme on Current Scheme • 33 Units erected in 7 weeks • Quality and predictability is increased • Non productive costs are significantly reduced • Weather dependency significantly reduced • Reduced Utility Bills for occupants

  14. How are we dealing with Change? • Knowledge Sharing • Sustainability Working Party • Intranet Design • Case Studies (New Technologies) • Staff Seminars • CFSH Monitoring Tool
