IWTS Industry Engagement Overview

A collaboration to create a nationally consistent solution

In 2023, the NSW Environment Protection Authority (EPA), in collaboration with Queensland Department of Environment and Science (DES) as part of plans to deliver a nationally consistent tracking solution for hazardous and other regulated waste.

The initial industry engagement project in early 2023 represented the first stage of the development of a nationally consistent waste tracking system, with the ultimate aim being a solution that is accessible and attractive for all jurisdictions to either adopt as their own, or easily integrate and interconnect with. The solution is now available for use in NSW, with Queensland due to join in late 2024.

KPMG has been engaged to design, develop and operate this solution utilising the established KPMG Origins traceability platform.

An industry outcomes focused project

The project had five key objectives:

Nationally consistent

A nationally consistent system that is accessible and attractive for all jurisdictions.

Group 25479-1

Compliant

Group 25480-2

Configurable

Highly configurable to support continuous change and advancement of regulation and industry.

Group 25481-1

Simplifies interstate

Group 25482-1

Co-designed with Industry

The Industry Engagement Group is a forum for discussion, sharing industry insights and considered input, and support KPMG to develop a digital tracking solution to meet operator needs and deliver optimum outcomes. The group consisted of a diverse cross section of industry roles, businesses types and sizes across the regulated waste types. The purpose of the group was to:

    • Contribute industry expertise and insights to inform the design of the solution 
    • Support KPMG to develop a solution that will meet the needs of different players across the supply chain
    • Contribute to the development of any guidance materials that may be required 
    • Provide feedback on iterative design features and materials developed to support the solution
    • Provide input into the considerations of the go-live plan for the solution
    • Provide a forum to discuss and resolve issues relating to this work.
