Sites Unified

The company

Leighton Construction manages complex infrastructure projects across Malaysia with multiple active sites requiring coordinated waste management and regulatory compliance.

The organization needed unified visibility across all project sites to streamline vendor coordination, ensure compliance with Malaysian construction waste regulations, and achieve sustainability commitments.

The challenge

Managing waste across multiple construction sites created operational bottlenecks that impacted project timelines and sustainability goals.

Multiple vendors

Each site required coordination with different waste vendors. This created complexity and inefficiency.

Lack of digital tools

Operations were slowed down without a centralized software to manage scheduling, tracking, and transparency.

Manual reporting

Reports for the management team were manually prepared. This consumed time and was prone to errors.

Sustainability gap

Limited knowledge on which materials could be recycled or accepted by regional haulers. This made sustainability goals harder to achieve.

"We were spending more time managing waste vendors than managing construction progress. Every site had different processes, different vendors, and no visibility into what was actually happening with our waste." — Operations Director, Leighton Construction
