In the world of logistics and goods delivery, there is an increasing awareness of the need to embrace emerging supply chain technologies in order to remain competitive in the marketplace. There are a wealth of digital advancements that are making logistics operations work smarter and more efficient and it really is time to think about adopting it for your supply chain.

As the construction industry embraces digital transformation, a notable challenge emerges from an older cohort within the workforce resistant to adopting new technologies. This resistance hinders the industry's seamless integration of digital tools. HUB360, having encountered this concern regularly, draws from firsthand experience to overcome these barriers and drive significant change.

The change in the definition of backfilling in the revised Waste Framework Directive of 2018 reflects the need to address the quality and environmental impact of recovery operations related to construction and demolition waste (C&DW). The original definition, as per Commission Decision 2011/753/EU, described backfilling as a recovery operation where suitable waste is used for reclamation or engineering purposes in excavated areas or landscaping, serving as a substitute for non-waste materials.

Christy O’Neill of Moyglare describes how the implementation of Hub360 has significantly improved Moyglare's delivery processes by automating tasks, promoting collaboration, and ensuring immediate access to accurate records for all stakeholders involved. This systematic approach not only enhances operational efficiency but also boosts customer satisfaction and contributes to a more sustainable approach to record-keeping.

Paper-based systems are inherently prone to human error. Misplaced orders, lost documents, and data entry errors can significantly impact project timelines and budgets. Digital material management systems, however, offer real-time data entry and retrieval, reducing errors and increasing accuracy. For example, using smart tech waste materials can be tracked accurately from site pick up to waste facility. This not only minimises the risk of issues but also streamlines operations, making the management and audit process 100's more efficient.

In a recent video, Sean O'Neill, Operations Director at Moyglare Sand and Gravel, talked about how he successfully introduced the Hub360 App. His adept handling of change made the transition smooth while his proactive leadership has proven to be a game-changer, significantly optimising operations while fostering an overwhelmingly positive impact throughout the company.

Ireland’s updated Waste Management guidelines for Construction & Demolition Projects 2021 prioritises the adoption of a circular economy, emphasising reuse and recycling over disposal. This means tracking, tracing and auditing of the movement of Construction materials where the developer must “maintain records for all resource material which is used on site and leaves the site, either for reuse, recycling, energy recovery, backfilling or other recovery or disposal on third party sites” as laid out in the EPA Best Practice Guideline 2021 - for the preparation of resource & waste management plans for construction & demolition projects.

The advent of technology has transformed various industries, and the tipper & bulk sector is no exception. With the introduction of the Tipper & Bulk App and its digital Proof of Delivery (POD) feature, life has become significantly easier for all stakeholders involved. In this blog post, we will explore how the Tipper & Bulk App revolutionizes operations by offering a digital POD solution, benefiting drivers, businesses, and customers alike.

HUB360’s Tipper Truck APP offers numerous benefits that make it a highly effective tool for managing tipper truck operations. Here are some key features that highlight why the APP is so good:

In today's rapidly-evolving business landscape, manufacturers who are still relying on outdated logistics practices are putting themselves at risk of becoming obsolete. Companies must urgently adapt to the digital age and embrace innovative technologies to optimize their outbound logistics operations, cut costs, and reduce their carbon footprint. Failure to do so not only means losing out on market share but also failing to meet customer expectations, which could lead to long-term damage to their brand reputation. To survive and thrive in the competitive manufacturing industry, updating outbound logistics practices is no longer an option but an imperative. The time to act is now - Don't Get Left Behind!
