The BIO Platform – End-to-End Biosolids Management

BIO is a configurable, web-based platform that helps water companies manage the full lifecycle of biosolids:

  1. Manage – Control supply, delivery, spreading, and sampling, including field nutrient levels, customer and farm details.
  2. Monitor – Track the journey of biosolids from treatment works to farmland, supported by GIS for accurate field data.
  3. Comply – Ensure adherence to UK & EU regulations, the Biosolids Assurance Scheme (BAS), and emerging requirements such as Farming Rules for Water and Environmental Permitting Regulations (EPR).

 


Key Features of BIO

  • End-to-End Workflow: manage the full biosolids lifecycle from creation to spreading in a single platform.
  • GIS Integration: BIO embeds powerful mapping tools across the platform, enabling risk assessments, farm field mapping, stockpile management, and no-spread zone enforcement.
  • Regulatory Assurance: Automated compliance checks, audit trails, and integration with the BAS standard.
  • Operational Efficiency: Streamlined workflows, user-based permissions, customer contract management, and delivery scheduling.
  • Sampling & Analysis – Support for soil nutrient sampling, record-keeping, and reporting.
  • Flexible Deployment – Cloud-based or on-premise hosting to suit your IT environment.
  • Mobile Ready – Tools for field teams to capture and update data on-site.
  • Managing customer contracts: BIO records details of farms, fields, and stockpiles for “tip and spread” deliveries, while also managing all necessary verifications for delivery and spreading.
  • Full Audit Trail & Reporting: generates documentation and dashboards for transparent oversight.
