Laboratories often produce vast amounts of waste, due to frequent personnel turnover, lab moves, and changing research needs. 

Storage space is at a premium becoming increasingly scarce, especially as many organisations reimagine and reshape their spaces as they move towards remote or hybrid ways of working.

Spring is just around the corner...can you feel it yet?? No...hmmm

Well the period is almost upon us! It will soon be time to open up the windows, let the cool breeze in and feel the sun on your skin. It’s nice, right? Do you know what else is nice? Having a working space and environment that is clean and tidy and makes you super happy to be at work!

Warp it helps the NHS collaborate and use its land and buildings better; this saves money, maximises asset value and liberates space.

Integrated Care Systems (ICSs) work across NHS and local authorities, and emphasises partnership, collaboration, and flexibility to pool resources and budgets, manage pressures, enhance productivity, and improve patient outcomes.

On Warp It, stakeholders can swap and trade surplus assets within and between organisations; everyone benefits.

Furthermore, if you join Warp It as a big group you can get big discounts!

Here's how Warp It helps ICS

• Makes the reuse and redistribution of surplus assets easier between partners in the NHS and beyond.
• An easy win for demonstrating organisations can collaborate. 
• Saves money in procurement; these funds can then be better spent elsewhere.
• Demonstrates the effectiveness of the ICS.
• Improves estates management by reducing waste and liberating space.
• Makes collaboration easier and builds trust between organisations.
• Brings social benefits with asset donations to charity and school partners.
• Give procurers much better purchasing intelligence as the system creates a massive inventory of surplus right across the ICS.

And additionally...

• Reduce procurement costs right across the ICS
• Reduce procurement paperwork- saving time
• Reduce waste
• Reduce waste costs
• Save space
• Reduces porter costs
• Make people happy! (It's true check it out here).
• and of course save carbon emissions!

The Warp It ambition to make reuse and the circular economy the norm is coming to fruition as our community make huge strides in reducing waste and carbon by reusing and redistributing furniture, equipment, stationery, and countless other items.

Non-profit organisations operate as businesses and donating furniture, stationery, equipment, and other items will allow them to focus on their core activities, be innovative, and sustain their work.

Being safe online is essential and as part of our ongoing improvement measures to ensure that the Warp it system is a secure environment we’re encouraging customers to consider single sign on (SSO) method for their accounts.

Moving away from the ‘Take-Make-Dispose’ linear economic model and adopting a circular economy is a recognised and respected solution to address global challenges like the climate crisis and realise a resilient, net-zero world.

Covid-19 has reshaped the traditional office style of working and remote and hybrid ways of working are becoming normalised.

Join us on Wednesday 3rd  November 2021 at 1.30pm for an exploration into how Warp It can help manage the transition to hybrid working. Join the meeting on your computer or mobile app here. This event is designed for Warp It admins, space managers, decant managers, and anyone interested in how furniture is being moved around to incorporate the new ways of working.
