RRS’s approach to sustainable materials management planning incorporates a rigorous strategic planning process.
We also develop a comprehensive understanding of the entire waste management system through key stakeholder interviews, data collection and analysis, program evaluation, waste generation modeling for various types of wastes and recycled commodities, national scope database utilization for program and generation data for the U.S. and Canada, geographical information system (GIS) application, best practice benchmarking and financial modeling. RRS can update an existing plan, identify the feasibility of alternative options, or build a plan from the ground up, including implementation and community outreach planning.
Our systems-based approach results in actionable and realistic sustainable materials management plans that maximize impacts, societal benefits, and community acceptance.
We’re here to help you create a plan that meets your community’s needs and set you up for success in the future.
