Closing the Operational Intelligence Gap

Closing the Operational Intelligence Gap

This report examines the state of the waste and recycling industry and identifies the biggest barriers to closing the operational intelligence gap. Waste and recycling organizations have more data than ever. So why are so many of them still relying on time-consuming, manual processes to understand what’s happening across their operations?

Fleet vehicles, onboard cameras, routing software, customer systems, and connected equipment are generating a constant stream of data. The challenge is no longer capturing all that data. It’s turning it into operational intelligence that drives better decisions.

Routeware and Waste Dive’s Studio surveyed 154 waste and recycling leaders to understand how the industry is managing data and automation. The findings reveal an industry at a crossroads.
