            Following the adoption of our sustainable team’s eco-solutions by SDC, there was a noticeable increase in the amount of
            waste collection and recyclable items at SDC premises. To continue supporting SDC’s sustainable goals, our sustainability
            team  plans  to  develop  a  waste  monitoring  dashboard  using  PowerBI  or Tableau. This  dashboard  will  enable  the  daily
            monitoring of waste collection activities.

            Conclusion

            The Singapore Discovery Centre (SDC) is a beacon of sustainability, exemplifying its dedication to operational efficiency and
            educational outreach. As a result of the environmental review by the ESI team at SDC and the implementation of the eco-
            solution, the amount of waste collected for recycling significantly increased.
