Description

The contracting authority shalll procure a tool for optimising waste routes in Trondheim Municipality. The tool will be able to give us a targeted optimisation and increase the efficiency for the collection of waste from businesses (Retura AS) and households (Trondheim Renholdsverk AS), respectively. The system must manage information on geographical limitations and other additional data associated with the collection points, and on the basis of this information estimate the most effective route based on various factors associated with e.g. distances, time, cost and environment. There are approx. 90 000 households in Trondheim municipality, each with their own collection schemes. Of these, approx. 60 000 own small containers outside the house, while the rest are distributed at common collection points such as containers and waste suction systems. The route optimisation tool should be used on the devices connected to small containers and larger ones. This amounts to approx. 130 000 units located in the city, distributed in approx. 34 000 collection locations. Based on the type of device and vehicles that can collect the unit, we want a scheme that generates new efficient routes for an expanding city.
