Standardising pre-demolition audits to improve data quality and enable material reuse
The London Local Market Programme will be showcasing how circularity works when driven by strong governance from the city combined with private institutional investors working at scale.
ReLondon, who will be market programme lead, have identfied that there is momentum around reuse of products and materials in London however:
- Pre-demolition audits (PDAs), a key tool to facilitate and mainstream reuse, are increasingly requested but are not standardized in their form or execution.
- This limits their expansion and enforcement in policy, as well secondary uses to facilitate a circular economy (material exchange supported by data-driven systems)
The LMP project aims to:
- Align the data asks and creation process of PDAs, mainstreaming existing international standardization initiatives within London
- Develop a demonstrator to establish the data infrastructure needed to support the aggregation and secondary uses of PDAs facilitating reuse
