BASE provides re-usable bottles/cups etc. at all locations to reduce the volume of single use items used as often as possible

BASE encourages double-sided defaults (where practical and acceptable), paperless communication systems (paperless pay stubs, paperless T4’s, expense reports and internal notices and memo’s etc.),and visual aid requirements for meetings that eliminate the need for printed agenda’s or handouts where practical

BASE offices have light fixtures with LED systems and motion sensor light switches (where appropriate) as part of a long term strategy, and our computers and Printers are programmed to revert to Energy Saving default modes

BASE utilizes paperless invoices, statements and payment systems where clients are able to support it

BASE utilizes tablets and other digital resources to eliminate the use of paper Field Notes, Time Sheets and other Field to Finish reporting systems. This initiative is part of a larger strategy to reduce human error throughout the data collection & transference process(s)

BASE has completed a 5 year plan to significantly reduce, and permanently remove the need for large drawing sets produced repeatedly for meetings and other purposes. We leverage the use of tablets, Smart/Digital Boards, and other document sharing and editing systems that generate less waste and more permanent/shareable records

All closed files within our organization are stored digitally and throughout the life of the project every effort is made to eliminate/scan and reduce or eliminate the use of paper. Where records are digital they are not printed unless absolutely necessary
