WARP-it
The University of Sussex has implemented a new equipment / furniture reuse system called WARPit.
WARPit is an online peer to peer redistribution network which makes it easy for individuals at the University to give surplus items to individuals inside the University in the first instance. If items are not required internally they can be passed onto external partner organisations i.e. charities.
WARPit stops staff buying “stuff” that other staff already have surplus. It also makes it easy for staff wishing to dispose of items to find new owners for the items, thus saving significant costs and reducing environmental impact in other organisations.
How does WARPit work?
The web application works by linking people together.
‘Contributors’ who want to give / share resources are linked up with ‘Recipients’ in the same organisation or different organisations that require the resource to reuse as part of their operations.
