Client

The client Is a leading Waste Management Collection and Recycling company operating in the UAE and runs the service globally. The client is also handling Waste Collection related to the Smart City project.

The Business Need

The client’s business involves in the timely collection of waste and in properly utilizing the assets (trucks, bins, etc.) to the maximum. As the vehicles for waste collection go out in random to collect the waste from bins located around the area, there was no awareness as to when and where to assign these vehicles with regard to the bin’s status (level of waste deposited).

The Solution Implemented

Waste collection and management is a huge network in the UAE region. Managing the assets during business hours is really challenging. Waste management companies and municipalities have barely used the technological innovations to improve their operational efficiency. So far they have only improved on route efficiencies.
