In the race to net-zero, how can the integration of software solutions help local authorities to transform the performance of their assets and meet sustainability targets?
Join LCRIG for a webinar about it at 11am on 21 February which will look to explore this. The event is being delivered in association with intelligent asset management solution provider, Brightly Software who will showcase their asset management system, CONFIRM™. The software can help local authorities build a baseline carbon footprint of each of their assets and roll-up data across asset portfolios.
The webinar is being hosted by the Local Council Roads Innovation Group (LCRIG) and will be chaired by Brightly’s Account Director for the Northwest and Northeast, Cherryanne Cooper.
Cherryanne has worked with numerous organisations covering multiple sectors, in both private and public organisations over the last nearly 7 years, helping them to showcase their existing assets and developing growth strategies. She is now working to support local councils in fulfilling their ambitions to create a sustainable asset management portfolio that is smart, and resident focused and identify their carbon footprint.
Cherryanne will be joined by:
