  1. Waste measurement & improving performance trainer organisation location date

  2. Aims • Demonstrate how to forecast and measure waste, with minimum cost and effort, using publicly available tools • Equip you with the knowledge and means to train others in your organisation

  3. Agenda • Why forecast and measure waste? • How to forecast and measure waste • Supply chain interfaces • Learning objectives • Overview of waste forecasting • Waste planning & data capture • Tracking corporate performance

  4. Why measure and forecast waste?

  5. Reputation Achieve clear market recognition Finance Achieve real cost reductions Environment Reduce negative environmental impact Policy Contribute tostrategic objectives why take action?

  6. Why take action? • Reduce environmental burdens • less waste to landfill • less site traffic • lower carbon footprint • Maintain reputation • demonstrate Corporate Responsibility • demonstrate efficiency and sustainable procurement • Cut costs • lower tender prices if requirements are set and waste reduction is planned at an early stage

  7. Landfill tax escalator • £8 landfill tax escalator extended to 2014 (active waste) • non-active frozen at £2.50/t (2010/11) • aggregate levy frozen at £2/t (2010/11) • government considering further restrictions on landfilling biodegradable waste and recyclable materials • potential future landfill bans

  8. SWMP Regulation (England) • Legal requirement on all projects in excess of £300k (increased requirements for those in excess of £500k) • It should include: • headline information about the project; • the name of an individual responsible for waste; • a forecast of the quantity of waste that will be generated; • a set of clear actions to reduce waste, and to increase the level of recycling; • the end destination for each waste stream and the recovery rate that will be achieved.

  9. Skanska Bristol schools PFI Cost of waste disposal: £42/t well segregated £238/t poorly segregated Cost of waste: £274k estimated value of materials wasted at one school “Reducing waste became part of the way we did construction”

  10. Waste and the supply chain

  11. Supply chain interfaces • Pre-construction Tendering & appointment Model wording • Outline design Prevent waste SWMP Template Designing out waste tools/guidance • Detailed design Forecast waste Reduce waste Increase RC Net Waste Tool • Construction Waste reduction Waste recovery Measure performance • Post-construction Review performance Benchmarking SWMP Tracker Reporting Portal

  12. Forecasting and measurement tools • Outline design • Focus • Waste prevention • Reusing materials • Detailed design • Focus • Reduce wastage • Increase recycled content • Construction • Focus • Achieve target wastage • Waste recovery • Measure performance • Completion • Focus • Consistent performance benchmarking Designing out Waste Tools and guides Net Waste Tool Site Waste Management Plan Template and Tracker Reporting Portal

  13. What do you want to achieve today?

  14. Overview of waste forecasting

  15. Benefits of waste forecasting • Estimating waste streams and allows you to identify: • Opportunities to reduce wastage and save money • Opportunities to segregate and reduce disposal costs • Opportunities to increase recovery

  16. Net Waste Tool

  17. Example • The principal contractor used the Net Waste Tool to: • forecast waste arisings • understand the cost of waste • set actions to reduce waste arisings • increase the segregation and recovery of waste

  18. Material selection – Tya, your original title was Recycled content!

  19. Choose component specifications (e.g. 100m2 of 12mm plasterboard) Inputs Project details (e.g. value) Project quantities (e.g. floor area) Programme Upload actual waste data post-construction

  20. Input options OR enter quantity from cost plan Accept the Tool’s quantity estimates (e.g. based on floor area entered) The objective is to produce a ‘best fit’ analysis using the data you have available

  21. Graphs showing results as you work through the analysis (baseline, good practice and targeted) Outputs • Headline results: • - waste arisings • - waste to landfill • - cost of waste • - recycled content • - KPIs (improvement) Detailed spreadsheet of data for SWMP

  22. Net Waste Tool – hands on

  23. Quick Quiz • Does the NW Tool assess recycled content? • What other outputs does the Tool provide? • If you don’t have a cost plan, can you still use the Tool? • What did the Net Waste Tool used to be called? • Who should use the Tool and when?

  24. Use your own project data or an example project • Work on your own or in pairs

  25. Access the tool at: http://nwtool.wrap.org.uk/

  26. Waste planning & data capture

  27. Waste planning – what, when and who? • Pre-construction Tendering & appointment Client • Outline design Capture waste prevention actions SWMP Template Architect • Detailed design Forecast waste and record actions Design team or contractor QS • Construction Monitor performance and record actual wastage Contractor • Post-construction Performance review and benchmarking Contractor and client

  28. What issues do you face?

  29. SWMP Template - benefits • goes beyond compliance, so can be used for projects across the UK; • clear demonstration of compliance with the SWMP Regulations 2008; • Applicable to all sizes of project and all types of construction; • enable users to progress from Standard to Good and Best Practice and demonstrate this; • data only has to be entered once and are then taken forward automatically to subsequent Steps; and • Net Waste Tool waste forecast can be used in the SWMP Template.

  30. Inputs and outputs

  31. WRAP/Envirowise SWMP Template (v2.0)

  32. SWMP Template demonstration • www.wrap.org.uk/swmp

  33. Use your own project data or example data

  34. Guidance freely available www.wrap.org.uk/construction

  35. How to access resources

  36. Tracking corporate performance

  37. Supply chain interfaces • Pre-construction Tendering & appointment Model wording • Outline design Prevent waste SWMP Template Designing out waste tools/guidance • Detailed design Forecast waste Reduce waste Increase RC Net Waste Tool • Construction Waste reduction Waste recovery Measure performance • Post-construction Review performance Benchmarking SWMP Tracker Reporting Portal

  38. SWMP Tracker Aggregate and analyse data from multiple SWMPs: • upload SWMPs • select which SWMPs to aggregate • download an Excel based report • Send data directly to the Halving Waste to Landfill Reporting Portal.

  39. SWMP Tracker demonstration • www.wrap.org.uk/swmp

  40. Insert a slide covering the reporting portal – just a link to say where it is. Hopefully most people will attend the later session so no need to cover in any detail.
