Fleet Software Enhancement Project Transitioning to New Software Zero Waste Advisory Commission 9 November 2022 Director Ken Snipes Background • In 2017, the process began to update the 17-year-old fleet software system. • After the integration, testing continued to advance the software. Since the integration, staff identified new needs that were outside of the scope of the current software contract. Staff created manual processes to close the gaps. Software Features Staff identified some issues, and the new needs of the department necessitated features outside of the original scope. These include: • Connectivity problems which cause system performance issues Inability to install software updates to all computers at once Inability to record collection activities on both sides of a street Limited video storage and reporting capabilities • • • New Software Solutions The current contract ends in 2023. Staff is exploring new software technologies. Potential software solutions should provide: • Optimized routing solutions • Unified software updates based on departmental requests • Customized reporting using telematics • Large capacity storage • Recording of all collections (both sides of the street) • Asset management • Compatibility with existing systems and equipment Questions
