"OpenSky’s iWDMS is an essential system for informing collective strategy and delivering waste services to 1.7 million residents in 6 London boroughs. It provides the foundation for extensive management information used by both WLWA and boroughs."
Jay Patel
Finance Director - West London Waste Authority
The Situation
The WLWA deals with millions of kilograms of waste a year. The needed a system to that would help them improve their waste strategy, increase recycling, and reduce their landfill contributions by providing clean and valid data, supporting production of reports such as waste data flow (WDF). OpenSky and WLWA teams worked closely to successfully automate waste disposal processes on one digital platform
An Advanced and Highly Automated Strategic Waste Management Tool
IWDMS facilitates the tracking of waste from collection to disposal with accurate tracking, and effectively automates many of the daily waste management tasks that WLWA would be expected to complete.
The system provides standard and specialised reports such as vehicle reports, waste reports, contractor reports and WDF reporting as well as functionality for users to design and customise their own reports and dashboards. As waste management processes are automated by iWDMS, the system can run many of the daily operations automatically.
What’s more, the iWDMS was highly customised to meet the requirements of WLWA’s business operations at the time of the project launch, thanks to its highly scalable, future-proof adaptive design. This architecture will allow the WLWA, and many other waste authorities how have now adopted the system, to add functionality in line with changing regulatory requirements.
The tracking of waste and automation of many daily tasks, aids both WLWA and its partner boroughs with a platform for real-time, easily accessible, strategic and operational management information for decision making. This reduces the reliance of knowledge transfer by key waste staff, enabling seamless operational continuity in the event of staff changes
