Protecting Biodiversity from Weeds and Pests

An estimated at $24.5 billion is lost to our economy from noxious weeds and introduced pests annually in Australia, according to CSIRO.

Are you part of a team that's passionate about meeting this environmental challenge while maximising the nation's economic outcomes?

OpenRoad provides all the collaboration and management tools required to maximise the effectiveness and efficiency of those with accountability for addressing this costly problem.

Forget spreadsheets, papers under the desk, phone calls and emails scattered all over the place.  OpenRoad introduces one connected system of record to manage with ease – all the data, all the people (inside and outside your organisation), and for consistent process.  All so you can focus on treating the weeds and pests rather than chasing job lists and people.

Welcome to OpenRoad

Whether you are a council, land-manager, or contractor, OpenRoad empowers you in the fight to reduce the spread of noxious weeds and introduced pests. OpenRoad allows you to create weed and pest audit records of land and record all relevant data points (locations, quantities, photographs). Those records can be turned in jobs and assigned to contractors, along with weather, scheduling and compliance data.

Contractors interact with the jobs, supplementing data with comments and photos, schedule information, chemical use, and other compliance data.

Councils see active jobs scheduled by contractors in real-time. Using the OpenRoad field mobile app council contractors can securely tender quotes to treat the portion of weeds on private land, without knowing the landowners contact details.
