Spot waste routes dumping more weight than usual

A waste hauler pays the landfill by the ton, and some routes suddenly weigh in heavier. This app checks each route's week against its usual weight, says whether it is new, getting worse or already disputed, and stops duplicate disputes.

Why it matters

Today's manual process, and the same job with the app

A cost clerk at a waste hauler, checking each route's weekly landfill tickets against its usual weight.

✕Today's manual process

1Add up the week's tickets for every open route, manually or in a spreadsheet.
2Guess the norm in force since the book figure on the sheet may be out of date.
3Check the open dispute list to see if this route already has one running.
4Miss the connection and file a second dispute the facility just rejects, which means the week gets reworked manually.
Every route checked manually each week

✓With the app

1The week's tickets are added up by code, for every route on the list.
2The norm is the one in force not just the figure printed on the sheet.
3Open disputes are already known so a repeat is never raised twice.
4You get one line raise it, hold it, or leave it alone, with the reason why.
The desk sees only what needs a decision

  1. 1What it already knows this route's usual weight is now 4.34 tons, not the book figure.
  2. 2Already flagged heavy two weeks running, with a dispute opened in an earlier week.
  3. 3This week's call already open, so no second dispute is raised.
  4. 4The usual weight has moved three heavy weeks in a row: rebase the route, don't dispute it.
  5. 5The numbers behind it 5.51 tons this week, and the dispute already open stays open.
