Contractor Compliance Software for Environmental Services

Every Licence Checked. Every Tip Face Covered. One Record.

Every contractor at your landfill, transfer station, or MRF, checked against the EPA licence their job actually needs, because engaging them never hands off your duty of care. Proof for the regulator, the council, or the generator the day they ask.

  • Landfills & transfer stations
  • Materials recovery facilities
  • Hazardous waste & dangerous goods
  • Asbestos removal & remediation
  • Collection & transport fleets
  • Councils & waste generators

ComplyFlow for Environmental Services.

Contractor compliance software for environmental services. One record for every landfill, transfer station, materials recovery facility, and remediation site you run, from the first EPA licence check to the confined space permit that closes out the job.

  • One licence check across every site you run. Not a generic licence field: the actual EPA transport, treatment, or asbestos removal class the job needs.
  • Your HSE team stops chasing renewals. ComplyFlow chases the licence, the insurance, and the induction instead, and it never forgets.
  • Audit-ready on any day of the year. The regulator, the council, or the generator asks, and you answer in minutes rather than a fortnight.
  • Nobody unlicensed reaches the tip face. At the weighbridge, the gate, or an unmanned transfer station, day or night.

ComplyFlow Is Already Trusted by Your Peers.

Landfills, transfer stations, and the councils, developers, and industrial sites around them that run their contractor panels on one record.

The Numbers

The Numbers Regulators Publish About Waste, Safety, and the Landfill Levy.

Public figures from the regulators and government agencies behind Australia’s and New Zealand’s waste and safety rules, each with the year it applies to. What it means for a site like yours sits underneath.

How It Helps

Digitised. Automated. AI-Reviewed. The Whole Contractor Lifecycle, for Environmental Services Teams.

Three things make ComplyFlow different for environmental services teams, and every job across the fleet and the sites draws on all three.

  • 01

    The Whole Lifecycle, on One Record.

    From the first EPA licence check to the confined space permit that closes out the job, every site, contractor, and driver sits on the same record.

  • 02

    Your Procedures, Digitised & Automated.

    The permit book at the gate and the weighbridge sign-in sheet become one system that chases, checks, and closes out on its own.

  • 03

    AI That Does the Reading.

    Licences, SWMS, and inspection reports read against your standard in seconds, reasons shown. Your people make the call.

What you do Digitise Automate AI
Check a contractor’s licence Contractor registers once; the EPA transport or treatment licence, asbestos removal class, and insurances are uploaded online against the specific waste type. Expiry reminders and re-approvals go out on their own. Licences and safety documents read against your requirements; gaps shown.
Induct a driver or plant operator Site induction on the phone, before the truck reaches the gate. Expired induction or licence blocks sign-in until renewed. Licences and high-risk tickets checked as they are uploaded.
Sign in at the weighbridge A QR code or a tablet replaces the gatehouse sign-in book. Record checked at the gate: not cleared, not weighed in. The live list updates itself. Ask your AI assistant who is on site right now, via MCP.
Permit high-risk work Confined space, hot works, and hazardous chemical permits on a phone. Routed to your authoriser; closes with a time-stamped record. The SWMS behind the permit read against your standard before approval.
Clear a driver and truck for the round Chain of responsibility records and vehicle roadworthiness sit beside the driver’s own compliance. Fleet and licence status checked before a truck is dispatched. Dangerous goods documentation reviewed against criteria you set.
Inspect the tip face and the MRF Plant, pedestrian separation, and fire checks on a phone, with photos. Every failed item becomes an owned, dated action. The photos and the failed items are on the record the moment the inspection syncs.
Report to the regulator or the council One searchable record per site, not a folder per landfill. Live completion rates and scheduled reports into Power BI. Ask in plain English through ChatGPT, Claude, or Copilot; the answer comes from the record.

Fire on the tip face, especially from lithium batteries, is a serious and growing risk; the industry’s own figures disagree sharply on how many incidents happen a year, so this page names the permits and inspections that manage it, not a number.

On Site Every Week

The Features Environmental Services Teams Use Every Week.

Four jobs an environmental services team does every week across the fleet and the sites, and what changes when they all run off one record.

One Licence Check for Every Site You Run.

Set your requirements once: the EPA transport or treatment licence for the waste type, the asbestos removal class, the insurances, your induction. Every contractor on every site is measured against the same list, and the dashboard shows who is short before the truck is booked.

  • Requirement sets by waste type and licence class
  • Per-site extras where a landfill or an MRF needs more
  • Contractors upload once, for every site you manage

The Weighbridge Decides Who Works Today.

A QR code at the gatehouse or a tablet at the weighbridge. The driver scans in, the record checks their licence, induction, and insurance, and the site manager sees who is on site right now. Not cleared, not weighed in.

  • Works after hours and at unmanned transfer stations
  • Drivers and visitors on the same sign-in
  • A live list for evacuations and roll calls

Inspections That Close Out, Not Pile Up.

Tip face, MRF, and plant inspections done on a phone, with photos, and every failed item becomes an action with an owner and a date. Senior management sees the close-out rate across every site without chasing a spreadsheet at each landfill.

  • Pedestrian and mobile plant separation checks
  • Fire and housekeeping checks at the tip face and the MRF
  • Close-out rate live, site by site

Permits for the Work That Hurts People.

Confined space entry in a pit or a tank, hot works on the tip face, hazardous chemical handling. The permit is raised on a phone, the SWMS behind it is read against your standard, your authoriser approves it, and it closes with a record of who signed what and when.

  • Confined space, hot works, hazardous chemicals, and isolation
  • SWMS read against your rules before approval
  • Every permit kept, searchable, for the audit

Why ComplyFlow

Why Environmental Services Teams Choose ComplyFlow, Not Another Point Solution.

Most environmental services operations run a prequalification network, a weighbridge system, a permit book, and a spreadsheet. Each does one job. The gaps between them are where a licence lapses unnoticed.

Questions

Questions Environmental Services Teams Ask Before They Book a Demo.

Can it hold an EPA transport or treatment licence for a specific waste type, not just a generic licence field?

Yes. You set the licence type your contractor needs for the waste stream they are handling, and ComplyFlow checks what they upload against that type, not a generic licence tick box.

Does it know the difference between a Class A and a Class B asbestos removal licence?

Yes. You set which class the job needs and ComplyFlow flags the right licence for that contractor before they are booked in.

Can a confined space entry permit be issued, tracked, and closed out digitally?

Yes. The permit is raised on a phone, routed to your authoriser, and closed with the standby person and the atmospheric test record attached.

Does it connect to our weighbridge or waste tracking system?

Yes, through the open API, so a system such as AMCS Wastedge and ComplyFlow’s compliance record agree without double entry.

Can it track heavy vehicle chain of responsibility obligations for our collection fleet?

Driver licences, dangerous goods endorsements, and vehicle records sit on the same profile as the rest of a contractor’s compliance, so it is one record, not a separate system.

How does it handle a contractor who works across multiple sites in different states, each with its own EPA licensing regime?

A contractor registers once and their licences and insurances travel with them to every site you manage, whichever state’s scheme applies there.

Is our data held in Australia or New Zealand, and does that meet our council’s or our own data residency requirement?

ComplyFlow’s data is held in Australia, on AWS, and is ISO 27001 certified. It is not held in New Zealand, so if your council or your own policy requires local residency there, raise it with us before you sign, and we will tell you plainly whether that is a fit. Your people log in with Microsoft or Okta single sign-on, so there are no new passwords to manage.

Can AI actually read a SWMS for confined space or hazardous chemical work, or is AI review just a keyword search?

AI reads the document against the requirements you set and shows its reasons; it does not just search for a keyword, and your people make the final call.

See It Against Your Own Sites and Contractors.

Book a 30-minute demo. We will show you ComplyFlow working with your kind of sites, your contractor panel, and your licensing requirements. No slides, no hard sell.
