Tamworth Borough Council implement in-cab computers in waste collection vehicles

Tamworth Borough Council will be the first council in the UK to implement Waste Collector, our ground-breaking software for complete management of waste operations.

The system combines existing technologies in vehicle tracking, mobile computing, RFID and geographical information systems (GIS) to create a single management system for all waste activities within an organisation.

Councils benefit by having total visibilty of domestic waste collection activities, participation in recycling schemes, effectiveness of routes, collection and disposal of WEEE and other bulky items and also provide 'value-added' services such as oversize-bins, assisted collections and time-scheduled collections.

Tamworth Borough Council have equipped all their domestic waste collection vehicles with the system, along with portable mobile computer systems to drive a greater level of service management, personal safety and customer service.

Nigel Harris, Waste Services Manager at Tamworth Borough Council said:

“We researched the UK market for several months and interviewed a number of vendors. It was clear that Bartec Systems offered a uniquely powerful product – combining all the features of vehicle tracking with a complete control system for waste operations. We are going to manage our domestic collections, our inspection team, our WEEE operations and our green-bin operations all in one simple system.”

Tim Hobbs, Managing Director of Bartec Systems, said:
"We are very proud of the latest addition to our waste management products. It’s another truly unique product in this sector and will add another element to our continued growth as the UK’s leading waste management software provider. We are delighted Waste Collector has been selected by Tamworth Borough Council, even before it’s officially launched, and look forward to a long partnership with them.”
