The MOVA system, acquired for 126,000 euros for a five-year period, will provide technicians with a wealth of data for decision-making. As explained by the Councilor for the Environment, Rafael Morales, logistics account for 70% to 80% of the total garbage collection cost, meaning any adjustments to routes or container sizing have a direct impact.
In Puente Genil, the management challenge involves overseeing 1,039 containers spread across 307 locations. The councilor emphasized the importance of adopting technical means to keep pace with current advancements and address present challenges.
The MOVA system will enable the establishment of the most efficient routes, record the volume of waste per container, and track its filling frequency throughout the year. It will also monitor truck idle times and street sweeper routes, facilitating the redistribution of containers and route modifications by technicians.
Furthermore, the system can calculate the ratio of waste weight per inhabitant based on census data, which will help determine the optimal size and placement of containers, potentially leading to significant savings.
