Abstract |
This paper presents Waste Management and Hazard Alert System (WM-HAS) web application as a novel business model supporting all stakeholders in the waste management ecosystem for seamless participation in the waste business. The innovative business model is developed for stakeholder inclusion to address the challenges of sustainable waste management in developing countries. The identified stakeholders include the Waste Generators, Pickers, Collectors, and Recyclers. Although, the informal sector has unofficially joined the waste eco-system to do business (i.e., picking, recycling, etc), there is no cohesion or regard for safety. WM-HAS runs on a regular computer or a mobile device and offers all stakeholders a user-friendly interface for doing business. It also integrates an Eyewitness interface and has an Internet of Things (IoT) report page that connects to IoT nodes located at dumpsites to detect hazardous gases. The scrum-Agile methodology is employed with the Laravel model view controller (MVC) framework for both frontend and backend services. Results show user's interface flexibility for ease of business engagements. The audience at a Stakeholder forum Demo in Nigeria expressed a desire to use the WM-HAS App once it goes live. |
