Project management, commercial fit-out and bespoke joinery company McCue has partnered with employee engagement platform provider Thrive.App and software solution provider SustainIQ, to boost sustainability when working on projects in the passenger shipping industry and other sectors.
McCue will use SustainIQ’s software to capture data across all sites and calculate its impact across four key areas in its sustainability strategy: procurement, planet, people and place. The company will disseminate insights from this data to employees via Thrive.App, allowing them to better understand its sustainability goals and performance. This will enable McCue to consider the major socio-economic and environmental implications of each project and react accordingly.
To date, 90 per cent of McCue’s employees are actively using Thrive.App and 79 per cent of them are engaged in communications about the launch of the company’s new sustainability strategy.
“Sustainability is a key driver in McCue’s business and it’s important to us that each project we deliver has a minimal impact on the environment,” said Gary Purdy, managing director at McCue. “SustainIQ has allowed us to measure, monitor and report on the social, economic and environmental impact of our projects whereas the Thrive.App has allowed us to communicate it internally, ensuring the team knows what is happening at all times. As a result, our employees have a greater understanding and engagement in what we are trying to do. Our team are actively involved in making us a truly sustainable company which delivers sustainable projects – a win win.”
