Increase operational efficiency
‘The cloud solution also offers substantial improvements in both the forecast and the performance of the smart optimization system,’ Stegehuis says. As another advantage of the upgrade to the cloud he mentions being able to drive the collection routes even more efficiently. ‘This reduces the need for collection vehicles and drivers that we can deploy elsewhere. That way, AMCS’s smart optimization software contributes simultaneously to increasing operational efficiency and to reduce operational risks. Moreover, because the number of kilometers driven and CO2 emissions are decreasing, the upgrade also has a positive effect on Twente Milieu’s sustainability targets.’
User-friendly cloud solution
He also thinks the user-friendliness of the cloud system is a great advance. ‘Our colleagues can use it more easily, which increases employee satisfaction and reduces staff turnover. Another benefit is that the system now runs in an online environment. This makes working without a workplace possible within Twente Milieu. The solution is available anywhere and anytime, ensuring continuity of operations. Planners, for example, can now easily pass on their work in case of illness or absence.’ The cloud solution also requires less effort from the ICT department. ‘We don’t need our own servers and networks anymore, which saves us operational IT costs. And now, whenever there is a problem, we don’t have to solve it ourselves either.
Rogier de Klein, AMCS Sales Manager: ‘We are very proud that Twente Milieu has opted for AMCS Fleet Planner’s SaaS solution for its next steps in the further professionalization and optimization of its services. It is a vote of confidence in AMCS, based on the successes we have achieved together in recent years. With the switch to AMCS Cloud, Twente Milieu is ready for the next steps in optimizing and professionalizing their collection of underground containers. We would like to thank Twente Milieu for their trust in us and look forward to a successful continuation of our collaboration.’
