Team 48 VIRESCO AD, LLC - Expansion: Data Organization and KPI Reporting

Viresco Team Poster

Project Abstract
VIRESCO is an anaerobic digestion company which transforms food waste into reusable energy through their patented VBC process. The company plans to expand their business by adding facilities but lacked a data management system with the cohesion to support said planned expansion. To help facilitate this planned expansion, our team created monthly Tableau reports and a dashboard to display process efficiency and variables affecting VIRESCO’s anaerobic processes at both the single-plant and multi-plant level. Through this, our team was able to reduce outsourcing costs and highlight KPIs and differences across multiple locations, ultimately helping improve plant processes. Not only does this immediately benefit VIRESCO process engineers with the enablement of the universal data management framework, but it also facilitates future expansion by allowing VIRESCO management to understand problems which may arise at new facilities.
