Waste Management
Waste Management: production and BOM, stock and warehouse, shipment and reporting.
Challenges
- The waste code is not held on record, so the transport form is filled in by hand.
- There is no reconciliation between collected and disposed tonnage.
- Vehicle trip cost is not reflected in the customer contract.
- Disposal facility receipts are not archived, so documents are hunted for during audits.
Workflows
From collection to transport
- Waste is recorded with its code and hazard status.
- The collection trip is planned with a vehicle and a customer.
- The transport form is generated from the waste code.
Disposal and reconciliation
- The tonnage handed to the disposal facility is recorded.
- Collected and disposed tonnage are compared.
- The customer contract is invoiced by tonnage or by trip.
Documents

- Transport form
