Mitchellson is a construction contractor with a strong focus on health, safety, quality and environmental (HSQE) performance across multiple sites. With concrete representing the business’s largest source of CO₂ emissions, accurate and timely data is essential for compliance, reporting and sustainability decision-making.
As HSQE Manager at Mitchellson, Patrick Hennigan oversees safety, quality and environmental compliance across a number of projects. Previously, the team relied on manual processes to collect and compile site data.
This approach created several challenges:
Producing critical documentation such as concrete crush reports and embodied carbon reports often caused uncertainty, as confidence in the underlying data was limited.
Mitchellson adopted Data Hub to centralise and automate the capture of concrete and compliance data across their sites.
Rather than manually creating datasets, Data Hub enables information to flow directly from site into a single platform. This significantly reduces administrative effort and improves data consistency and reliability.
From an HSQE perspective, this shift allowed the team to focus less on data creation and more on interpretation and insight.
With accurate, consistent data readily available, the HSQE team can now produce and share reports with confidence — turning a former pain point into a strength.
“Before, I’d always get a little bit nervous about the information I might be asked to produce… now I’m delighted to be able to share as much information as we possibly can.”
By eliminating manual data entry and rework, Data Hub has streamlined site-level administration, freeing up time for analysis and proactive decision-making.
Concrete is Mitchellson’s largest source of CO₂ emissions. Data Hub enables the business to record and report carbon outputs in far greater depth and detail — supporting sustainability goals and improved environmental accountability.
“Data Hub has allowed us as an organisation to report in much greater detail our carbon outputs, which is fantastic.”
With Data Hub embedded into its workflows, Mitchellson is better equipped to manage compliance, improve operational efficiency and understand the environmental impact of its concrete use — helping the business respond to growing regulatory and sustainability pressures with confidence.
