TSC Stores realizes over 35% savings while streamlining multi-province vendor management.

the challenge

With over 20 vendors across two provinces, TSC Stores faced the commonly-experienced challenge of coordinating their waste management efforts cost-effectively. Overseeing many sites meant liaising with many points of contact; a challenge that consumed significant administrative time.

Beyond the time consuming coordination of waste services, TSC Stores had no means to track their waste generation across sites, which ultimately led to overspending on waste services. Poor reporting and data management meant being stuck in the cycle of overspending. TSC Stores needed a solution that could both streamline and optimize the process.

our solution

Turning to Waste Solutions Canada, TSC Stores gained access to full vendor management. As a one stop shop, managing waste services across multiple sites was made simple with a single point of contact. In addition to vendor management and negotiation, monthly cost and site-by-site and regional reporting were implemented to reduce costs and ensure that costs stayed low.
