Sustainable Procurement
Operational Streamlining

Back On The Map
Context
Back on the Map is a community-focused housing organisation committed to revitalising neighbourhoods and supporting local residents. As their portfolio and operations grew, managing multiple utility contracts across sites became increasingly complex and time-consuming.
Problem
The organisation faced rising energy costs, inconsistent billing, and difficulties keeping track of contract end dates. These challenges were diverting valuable time and resources away from their core mission, supporting local people and maintaining affordable housing.
Solution
Green Platypus stepped in to carry out a full review of their utilities and service contracts. By consolidating suppliers, negotiating competitive rates, and introducing clearer management processes, they helped Back on the Map reduce overall energy spend, simplify billing, and gain full visibility of their usage across all sites. The partnership also explored other cost-saving opportunities beyond energy, helping streamline day-to-day operations.
“Working with Green Platypus has made a real difference to how we manage our utilities. Their team took the time to understand our organisation and quickly identified ways to reduce costs and simplify our energy management. We now have clearer visibility of our contracts and bills, and we’ve seen significant savings across our sites. It’s been a professional, supportive partnership that allows us to focus more on what matters which is supporting our community.”
