If you did receive a certificate, you’ll know what we are talking about, and if you didn’t, you might be asking ‘Hey! Where’s mine?’.

We all have dreams and goals personally and professionally, and a vision of how this looks. But dreaming is the easy part. Where do we begin and how do we make it happen?

Taking positive action combined with positive thinking results in success.

After all, an idea not coupled with action will never get any bigger than the brain cell it occupied!

Are you ready to take action? Then read on and infuse your life with action!

One thing that we are occasionally asked is whether customers can send assets straight to a charity and bypass the internal reuse phase.

The reason this is asked is that when you add an asset it gets advertised to internal and then later to whoever has been defined as ‘priority two’, and ‘priority three’ (see this article about share days).

We believe in the value of training and support, which is why we are launching Stakeholder Buy-In Webinars to ensure your Warp It reuse system gets off to a flying start.

We also offer these Webinars to support existing reuse systems where they can benefit from greater levels of automation or participation.

Reuse projects need collaborators

Getting reuse to thrive internally and externally requires collaborators from around the estate, but getting support from these collaborators can be a real challenge. The best thing you can do is to show everyone on the estate how they benefit from reuse.

Here are some helpful resources:

How does a Waste Manager benefit?

How does a Space or Decant Manager benefit?

How does a Director of Estates benefit?

How does a Head Porter benefit?

How does the ‘big boss’ benefit?

How does a Procurement Manager benefit?

How a workshop can gain support from all

What is a stakeholder session?

If required in addition to our general webinars and online training, we can book you in for a stakeholder session. This online session can help with things like buy-in, participation, and understanding the abilities of the software.

Stakeholders for the Warp It system includes (but is not limited to) professionals from Procurement, Capital Development, Finance, Logistics, and Estates.

The stakeholder sessions can be joined either by bringing the relevant people into a conference room with a large computer screen, or by each member joining from their desktop, tablet, laptop, or phone.

In the web session we outline the benefits to each of the stakeholders, present the overview, and take any questions that may be had.

This article has been put together for Warp It Administrators, to help you pilot the Warp It programme.

The optimal stage to run a pilot is once you’ve set yourself up on the system, got to grips with the settings and customisable features, and have some insights about what the first major milestones you wish to deliver are.

The best way to grow your reuse project is incrementally, in order to minimise risk.

To facilitate this sustainable growth you will need to adopt practices that align with your policy and procedures and allow it all to be scaled and tweaked as you go.
