Our process

A more effective way to work

We can work in two ways. Either by providing individual services, or by combining a range of services and offering a more joined up solution.


We are one of the few companies in our field that can do this because we provide access to a full range of services under one roof. This means you can enjoy the simplicity and effectiveness of a one-stop-shop from conception to delivery and beyond.


You can enjoy a more sustainable way of working both internally and externally and achieve genuine, tangible and measurable results. Most importantly, you will be able to demonstrate the outcomes and impacts of your budgetary spend, and through our clear process, identify key areas for improvement and drive increased efficiency and effectiveness in all that you do.


Our process normally follows the key stages below:

Understanding

We analyse your situation through consultation and research.

Strategic planning

We look at what needs doing and work out how to get it done.

Action planning

We put together a plan of action to meet your needs

Delivery

• A wide range of research services to help you achieve your objectives

• Communications resources to help you get your message across

• Ways to affect behavioural change and make sustainability a habit

• Technical consultancy services built on many years practical experience

• Helping our services run seamlessly with project management

• Providing resourcing for teams to get the work done

 

This way of working allows us to develop and implement fully ‘thought through’ strategies with continuous capacity for improvement.

 

Project Synopses

Resource Futures helps WRAP understand recent reductions in food waste

Resource Futures has recently helped WRAP to estimate how much household food waste has decreased nationally in recent years, with the recently published “Synthesis of Food Waste Compositional Data 2010” 

Best estimates ever of what’s in our rubbish

Defra has published a study carried out by Resource Futures which provides the best estimates to date of what’s in the ‘national rubbish bin’.

Research into reuse of household items through online portals

In 2011, Resource Futures carried out WRAP funded research into how household items are reused through online portals such as eBay, Freegle and Gumtree.  The research included a detailed survey on internet user habits regarding online exchange and sought to understand the reasons for not using such sites.
