S3R Supports Tandem in Optimizing Post-Disaster Waste Management

Company:

Tandem

Challenge:

  • Effectively managing a wide variety of waste: wood, metal, drywall, contaminated debris, appliances, furniture, etc 
  • Optimizing sorting and logistics on sometimes complex job sites 
  • Improving traceability and material recovery to reduce landfilling 
  • Better controlling costs and standardizing practices across teams 

Solutions:

First step for our experts: observe without intervening. Observation is key to understanding, validating what works, questioning what seems to work, and challenging what doesn’t. After a complete analysis of on-site operations and workflows, S3R experts: 

  • Adjusted internal procedures 
  • Proposed a tailored sorting plan and provided appropriate containers 
  • Trained teams and rigorously monitored ongoing adjustments 
  • Optimized logistics and reduced the number of hauls
