ORIS for contractors

Faster iteration. Less carbon emissions.

ORIS Materials Intelligence helps contractors reduce bid preparation time and increase project profitability by consolidating cost, carbon, and material data into a single source of truth. No need for complex tools or expert teams — just faster, smarter decisions powered by integrated insights.

Deliver with confidence:
validate, quantify, communicate

For contractors, data represents a true asset to harness and gain a competitive edge. Across every stage of project delivery, the ability to utilise data wisely and showcase carbon and material data is now essential. Showcase impact:

  • Validate your sustainability commitments with reliable, auditable data
  • Shareable dashboards for better internal and client communication

Respond to tenders faster with smart automation - not manual work

Tender speed to reply is one of your key differentiators. But with the growing compliance part in tenders, the hours needed to do carbon calculations quickly add up, if they are done at all. ORIS accelerates project planning and analysis with automated calculations and user-friendly dashboards. So you can respond to tenders faster and focus on high-value tasks.

  • Enter your data with our Autodesk plug-ins by importing any BIM file or manually
  • Let our tool do the work for you: greenhouse gas emissions are automatically calculated

Find the best design choices to lower impact early on

Whether it's before execution or after, ORIS enables internal teams and external stakeholders to have a unified view of the infrastructure designs or scenarios to ensure alignment with cost targets, environmental requirements, and constructability.

    • Enter your project address and details
    • Automatically get transport and design scenarios

Sustainability is your ally, not your opponent

You’re not just building to specs, you’re building for the future. But sustainability targets can feel like a burden: more constraints, more reporting, more complexity. It doesn’t have to be. With ORIS, environmental compliance becomes a lever, not a roadblock.

  • Scientifically backed by CIRAIG LCA data from A1 to A5 phases
  • Integrated, consistent EcoInvent CO₂ database
  • CO₂ calculation backed by Intertek
  • Supports compliance with EN 15804+A2 and PAS 2080 standards

 

'One of the main challenges/KPI's set at the start of achieving the first carbon neutral road scheme in the UK was to deliver a carbon neutral contract. The pavement design/materials was the biggest factor in reducing carbon, which is where ORIS showed its power; it was able to compare multiple pavement designs in respect of carbon, scheme budget, resources and life, giving us the optimum solution at the click of a button.'

Compliance? Check.
Increased productivity? Check.
More bids? You bet.

With rising expectations on sustainability, cost-efficiency, and compliance, having the right data at the right time is a real superpower for contractors. That’s where ORIS comes in — the sustainability platform for infrastructure that turns complexity into clarity. Here are 4 ways we help contractors lead with impact:

Design process optimisation

Materials comparison. 3D model integration. Autodesk plugin. Transport and design scenario multicriteria analysis. Everything we can do to help engineers free up time on carbon calculations, we do.

 

Stronger, justifiable and data-oriented bids

Price is not the only criterion anymore. Show how good your designs are with insights on  LCA and other criteria to gain trust and align with their growing requirements.

Collaboration, in-house and externally

The time of static Excel sheets sent by email is over. You know you can do better. We can help you do it.

Unique database of production and recycling sites

Each contractor is different. We let each users either import their sites, or use our worldwide sites database, curated using AI geographical information analysis. 

 

Our clients talk about their experience with ORIS

Arcadis (UK)

Harry Scarlett - Pavement Engineer

‘With ORIS, we can accurately identify both production and waste sites and account for the carbon emissions generated from transportation. Other carbon assessment tools lack the same accuracy and user-friendliness that the ORIS platform offers, particularly regarding transportation.’

1652288553476

AECOM (UK)

James Burdall - Head of Pavement Design and Assets Management

'Using the ORIS platform, we identified a solution that reduced material consumption by 14.6 k Tonnes and saved us 0.87 million pounds. This optimisation level would not have been possible without ORIS’s powerful digital capabilities.'

1516525605416

Ramboll (DK)

Jón Gunnar Hilmarsson - BIM Manager

‘The open BIM module of ORIS allows us at Ramboll to seamlessly integrate LCA calculations into our designs without adding time-consuming steps. This is essential for helping us build a culture where carbon assessment is seen as a key design criterion.’
