Site Waste Clearance Software

Managing site waste and responsibility to ensure its cleared away when multiple contractors are working on the same site at the same time is a logistical problem for site management companies. This often leads to extra expenses being incurred by the site owner as those responsible leave their waste for someone else to clear up.

The owners at Site Waste Clearance approached Sapere to see if it would be possible to create a mobile application which would allow them to sell the solution to site management companies across the country to help manage site waste clearance and help the site owners to recover the cost of the clearance when it was left to them to sort.

From the request Sapere were able to design and develop a mobile and web based solution that allows site Foreman to use a smartphone to record instances of site waste not being cleared up. These notices are then automatically sent to the offending subcontractor’s phone with pictures of the waste with a request to clear up within a set period of time. If the subcontractor fails to clear up their waste they are then sent a contra charge for the cost.

The web based application allows the site management to view any requests for clearance, and contra charges issued and see a recovery cost per project and per subcontractor.

A really beneficial tool to help manage site waste and recoup lost revenue – an example of creating a solution to fix a real-life problem with real time benefits!
