IMEC’s Hazardous Waste Management Software
The hazardous waste business is broken into three separate types of organizations.
- Hazardous Waste generators, large quantity and small quantity.
- Transporters, also known as brokers. These companies collect waste from generators and transport it to a transfer station.
- Environmental Service companies, these companies manage transfer and disposal facilities(TSDF’s).
IMEC’s hazardous waste management software provides a solution for all three types of organizations, Waste Transporters, Environmental service companies and Waste generators.
Waste Transporters or Brokers use the software to manage waste profiles, produce labels and hazardous waste transportation documentation. Transporters need a license from the EPA to collect and transport waste on the public roads. The software allows transporters to manage their business, creating jobs for collection and printing waste labels and transport documentation. Jobs can be tracked through the full waste life cycle from pickup, through transport and final disposal. Transported can then use the software to report to their customers on disposal amounts and times
Environmental Service Companies use all the same features as a Waste Transporter but the also need the ability to manage hazardous waste inventory. The management involves the tracking of waste splits and combinations. This is commonly known in the hazardous waste industry as packing and repacking. Tracking waste onsite to ensure that it does not breach compliance rules, such as time on site or volumes onsite is also a key feature. Environmental Service companies require cradle to grave tracking of waste.
