Planning materials requirements:

Providing clients with construction projects delivered on time, in accordance with their specifications is paramount to construction industry requirements. Failure to make adequate advance arrangements for supply of materials can increase construction costs.

Materials specifying -Ways to minimise waste:

Waste minimisation needs to be fostered from project design through to contract completion and involves the co-operative spirit of the full construction team and many external agencies.

Competitive threat:

Knowledge about wastage factors on construction sites can lead to more realistic bids for new projects.

Agreeing, implementing and monitoring a construction waste management plan:

• Conducting regular site audits leads to waste minimisation-whilst acting as a catalyst towards good housekeeping. Construction firms often fail to budget for waste but suffer waste costs over 35% on certain materials.
• Getting better value for materials is a prerequisite for minimising waste. Accountability for waste is essential. Partnering with suppliers and waste disposal companies helps. Delegating responsibility for waste management will highlight the issue. The presentation will include examples from Irish case studies portraying success in minimising construction waste on a range of construction projects.
