Digital Waste Management Dashboard Supporting Community Sustainability 

OCS supports a leading master developer in the UAE with a digital waste management dashboard that strengthens transparency, reporting accuracy and progress toward long-term sustainability goals. The dashboard tracks waste metrics across the full community as well as at individual customer level, helping each site understand its contribution and performance.

Why the Dashboard Was Introduced 

The customer has clear sustainability targets that require detailed tracking of waste generation, segregation and recycling. Manual methods did not provide the visibility needed for accurate reporting or trend analysis. The dashboard gives community managers and customers near-real-time insight into their waste performance and supports alignment with recognised sustainability standards, including LEED and WELL. 

How the Dashboard Works 

  • Community and Customer-Level Tracking 
    • Waste performance is visible for the full development as well as for each building and tenant. 
  • Detailed Categorisation 
    • General, recyclable, hazardous and organic waste are captured for every collection cycle. 
  • Photo Evidence and Timestamps 
    • Each entry is supported by visual evidence to strengthen accuracy and compliance with environmental requirements. 
  • Monthly Sustainability Reports 
    • Reports summarise total waste, recycling percentages and key trends to support continuous improvement. 
  • CAFM Integration 
    • Operational and sustainability data are connected for a clearer view of site performance. 

The Outcome 

The dashboard supports the customer’s sustainability framework by improving visibility, strengthening accountability and enabling data-led decisions. Early results include: 

  • Better transparency through benchmarking against community averages 
  • Improved recycling performance supported by clearer segregation data 
  • Stronger ESG reporting through structured, consistent metrics 

Supporting Long-Term Environmental Goals 

Work is underway to expand the system through Power BI analytics for deeper insight and trend forecasting. This will help the customer and its partners plan more effectively and support long-term environmental objectives across the community.
