How Wastecom NRG improved financial control and visibility with Waste Logics

Wastecom NRG manages the movement of more than 300,000 tonnes of waste across the UK through its network of processors, hauliers and Waste to Energy partners. As the business grew, disconnected systems and spreadsheets made it harder to maintain visibility and control. Waste Logics brought its operational and financial information into one system, reducing manual processes and giving the team real-time visibility across the business.

Before

The Challenge

Wastecom NRG was using a combination of software systems and spreadsheets to manage its operation. As the business and customer base grew, information became increasingly fragmented, making day-to-day processes harder to manage efficiently.

Reporting was particularly difficult. With data held across different systems, there was no single source of truth and reports didn't always align, making it harder for the team to get an accurate view of business performance.

Wastecom NRG needed a more robust, connected system that could improve visibility, reduce operational risk and continue to scale with the business.


Business reporting was incredibly difficult as there was no single source of truth, and reporting would never match-up.

The Decision

Finding one system for greater visibility and control

Wastecom NRG reviewed the market for a system that could bring its processes and information together without disrupting the day-to-day operation.

Waste Logics provided one connected system that could address those immediate challenges while giving Wastecom NRG the flexibility to support its continued growth.


It’s a far cry from the old spreadsheet and paper-based system and has vastly improved our operational efficiency.
