[MMC Materials](https://www.mmcmaterials.com/), a leading building materials company, used Mapistry to manage environmental compliance across 90 locations and digitized more than 12,000 inspections. 

[MMC Materials](https://www.mmcmaterials.com/), a leading building materials company specializing in ready-mix concrete, faced significant challenges in managing environmental compliance across its 90 locations.

Relying on paper-based inspections led to inefficiencies, compliance risks, and a lack of standardization. MMC Materials adopted [Mapistry](https://www.mapistry.com/), which streamlined inspections, increased accountability, and improved compliance management.

 

## The challenge: 12,000 paper-based inspections were burning up company resources

MMC Materials dealt with an overwhelming volume of paper-based inspections—over 12,000 per week across 90 concrete facilities. 

The process was time-consuming and inconsistent, with managers often struggling to track inspections and corrective actions. This resulted in:

- **Operations "pencil-whipping" inspections** to get them off their plate
- **Difficulty in verifying** the completion and accuracy of inspections
- **Managers spent more time** tracking paperwork than improving plant operations

> "The effort to track inspections and corrective actions impaired site managers’ ability to focus on other areas of plant improvement." – Gary Scott, Area Manager

## Not changing their process wasn’t an option anymore 

Without a better system, MMC Materials risked:

- **Getting fined for incomplete inspections**, with potential six-figure EPA penalties.
- **Wasting six-figure employees on paperwork,** with managers being stuck in compliance instead of improving processes in the plant.

 

## Why MMC Materials chose Mapistry

MMC Materials wanted a platform that could:

- **Digitize the inspection process** and give time back to operations.
- **Provide real-time compliance data** across all facilities.
- **Increase accountability** and streamline reporting processes.

## What made Mapistry stand out for MMC

1. **A user-friendly mobile app** that operations wanted to use.
2. **Offline inspections** for remote locations without internet access.
3. **A centralized dashboard** for monitoring compliance across multiple sites.

> "The offline access helps too because some of our plants are remote. They can still take their pictures and make their notes. And when they connect to Wi-Fi, it uploads everything." – Sonya Price, Regional EHS Manager

## The transformation: Easy inspections on the Mapistry App and a reliable compliance system

MMC Materials integrated Mapistry for:

- SPCC, stormwater, and waste inspections
- Environmental, OSHA, and MSHA compliance monitoring
- Document management for permits and training logs

### Even inspectors were impressed with the improved system

After implementing Mapistry, MMC Materials saw immediate improvements:

- **Thorough inspections** getting completed on time.
- **Operations getting time back **to improve processes in the plan.
- **Improved accountability**, with managers taking greater ownership of compliance.

> "I’ve had three inspections since implementing Mapistry. All inspectors were impressed with our use of Mapistry." – Sonya Price, Regional EHS Manager

## Would MMC Materials recommend Mapistry? Yes.

MMC Materials highly recommends Mapistry for its ease of use and compliance benefits.

> "Mapistry has helped motivate and give accountability for compliance across our facilities. Managers can now take ownership in their sites." – Gary Scott, Area Manager

## Drowning in paperwork? MMC Materials was too.

With 12,000 inspections per week across 90 locations, their compliance process was a nightmare—until they switched to Mapistry. Now, inspections are streamlined, accountability is up, and operations have time to focus on what matters.
