Materials Management Plan (MMP) Survey Support

We provide measured survey records and material-volume evidence to support the Materials Management Plan process.

Service overview

Measured evidence for the MMP process

We survey the relevant material areas and stages so quantities, locations and changes are supported by consistent spatial records.

The survey evidence can support material tracking, reuse records and defined earthworks stages within the wider MMP process.

Formal MMP preparation, material suitability decisions and the Qualified Person declaration are outside the survey service.

Material quantitiesMeasured volumes and spatial records around the agreed material areas.
Survey evidenceDated survey information supporting the project material and earthworks record.
Repeat stage recordsComparable surveys where agreed stages require updated quantities or verification.

MMP survey scope

Survey records for material tracking and reconciliation

This service covers the spatial and quantitative survey information used within the Materials Management Plan process. Formal MMP preparation, material suitability decisions and the Qualified Person declaration are not included in the survey service.

Workflow

How we deliver it

We plan the sequence around the project brief, programme and required deliverables.

01

Review the MMP survey requirements

Confirm the material zones, survey stages, stockpile identifiers, reporting format and project control.

02

Establish baseline

Survey existing ground and any initial material holdings relevant to the tracking process.

03

Record material stages

Survey excavation, stockpiles, placement areas and agreed construction layers through the programme.

04

Calculate quantities

Prepare stockpile volumes, surface comparisons and other agreed survey quantities.

05

Reconcile records

Relate survey outputs to the project material-tracking schedule and defined phase records.

06

Issue verification information

Provide final mapped and quantitative survey evidence required for project reconciliation or close-out.

Questions

Materials Management Plan (MMP) Survey Support FAQ

What survey information can support a Materials Management Plan?

Typical survey inputs include baseline terrain, excavation and placement zones, stockpile locations and volumes, repeat phase surveys, current surfaces, cut/fill quantities and mapped records used for material tracking and reconciliation.

Does GRID Surveying prepare or certify the complete CL:AIRE MMP?

No. This service covers the surveying, spatial and quantitative evidence that can support an MMP. Formal Materials Management Plan preparation, material suitability decisions and the Qualified Person declaration are outside this survey service.

Can stockpiles be tracked through the project?

Yes. Defined stockpiles can be surveyed at agreed stages, identified consistently and included in quantity schedules or mapped records to support material tracking.

Can formation or capping stages be recorded as part of the survey support?

Yes. Where required by the project, agreed construction layers can be surveyed before subsequent works proceed, providing a controlled spatial record for the material-management and construction programme.
