Waste Infrastructure Gap Assessment
What infrastructure a city has vs what it needs — mapped and costed.
A gap assessment inventories existing vehicles, bins, transfer stations, MRFs and processing capacity against generation, and quantifies the shortfall in collection, transport and processing to full compliance.
- It prevents over- or under-investment in vehicles and plants
- It exposes the transport and processing bottlenecks that stall systems
- It anchors the capital plan and DPRs in real need
What you have vs what the city needs
A gap assessment lines up existing assets against the waste the city actually generates — and turns the shortfall into an investment roadmap.
- Vehicles, transfer stations & bins
- Processing & composting throughput
- MRF & disposal capacity
- Demand from measured generation
- Segregation & processing targets
- Prioritised investment roadmap
The gap between the two is the investment case.
A clear, practical approach
Vehicles, bins, transfer stations and processing capacity audited.
Shortfalls quantified across collection, transport and processing.
