Climate Change Mitigation Advancing Net Zero

Problem addressed

Construction projects are suffering more and more delays due to climate change and extreme weather events.

Solution overview

EHAB is a cloud base SaaS platform that plugs into construction planning and risk software to provide a granular analysis of weather risk on a construction project. The outputs can be used to reduce weather exposure in the long term, implement better mitigations, reduce insurance premiums, and to generate a parametric insurance policy which pays out automatically in the event of extreme weather delays. There is also a short term planning tool to better plan weather windows of critical work. It integrates with P6, MPP, PRA and Acumen Fuse. In the best case scenario it can reduce plan length by 16%.

It costs £1,800 – £20,000 per year per project depending on size and complexity of uploaded plan. This is a large return on investment compared to % savings of the total programme.

Case study

EHAB was used on the bid for the Tay Link Road project, a £100m road and bridge building scheme in Scotland. It helped to provide clear weather data in the QSRA for the tender, helping to win the job. It is now used on an ongoing basis by the project to provide weather data and inform planning decisions.
