Waste data infrastructure for waste consultants
WATS helps waste consultants turn fragmented audits, invoices, and tonnage reports into a defensible, portfolio-ready data layer, without the spreadsheets.
Ingests multiple data sources (invoices, audits, diversion reports) to improve coverage and confidence
Ties spend to tons and service context (even when tonnage isn’t on the invoice)
Surfaces savings opportunities and audit-to-implementation insights
Advisory Work Shouldn’t Start With Spreadsheet Cleanup
Waste consultants are hired for subject-matter expertise, not PDF wrangling. Yet the day-to-day reality is usually:
Audits in one format, invoices in another, tonnage somewhere else (or nowhere)
Units and naming that vary by hauler, facility, and report type
Manual normalization to make anything comparable across sites
Hours of reconciliation before analysis can even begin
This slows delivery, introduces risk, and makes it hard to scale a repeatable methodology across clients and portfolios.
Problems We Solve
Fragmented Inputs (Audits, Invoices, Tonnage)
Waste data shows up across audits, invoices, diversion reports, and vendor portals, rarely in one place, rarely in a consistent structure.Manual Normalization Is the Bottleneck
Unit conversions, stream definitions, site naming, and vendor-specific quirks make “clean data” a recurring project.Hard to Tie Performance to Dollars
Connecting tons/diversion (and contamination findings from audits) to the cost story is historically insanely manual, especially when tonnage isn’t included on invoices.Proof of Savings Takes Too Long
Even when opportunities are obvious, consultants often struggle to quantify (and validate) the savings case quickly enough to drive action.
How WATS Supports Consultants
1. We Ingest Multiple Data Sources
Invoices, audit results, diversion reports, service context, and site metadata, across vendors and facilities.
2. We Standardize + Reconcile
A consistent schema that lets you compare across sources (and use one source to fill gaps in another) so you get better coverage with higher-confidence data.
3. We Connect Invoices to Tonnage
Spend, volume, and service context in one place, with flexibility when tonnage is missing or reported inconsistently.
4. You Drive the Engagement
Use WATS internally for account management, or share logins with clients at no extra cost to create a faster feedback loop from measurement → strategy → implementation.
WATS becomes the waste data backbone behind your advisory work.
