The strategic partnership brings together local technology infrastructure and software innovation to address one of Nepal’s most pressing urban challenges: inefficient waste tracking and processing.
Transforming Nepal’s Waste Infrastructure Through Digitization
The collaboration focuses on replacing traditional, unorganized waste handling with a unified Digital Waste Management System.
According to Dhan Bahadur Rana, the Founder Chairperson of Lumbini Tech Innovation Center, this partnership marks a massive leap forward for the country’s tech landscape:
“The digitization and digitalisation of the waste management system in Nepal is a critical milestone in building a sustainable digital ecosystem. By integrating technology into public utilities, we are creating cleaner, smarter communities.”
By introducing transparent digital workflows, the program intends to optimize fuel costs, improve garbage collection route efficiency, and provide real-time updates to municipal authorities and citizens alike.
Driving Impact at the Grassroots Level
The new digital system is engineered to be highly accessible, ensuring that even smaller communities can adopt modern waste solutions. Mangal Pradhan, Founder and Technical Director of Upcode Nepal, emphasized the practical, local benefits of the software:

“This signing brings enhanced waste management directly to the grassroots level. Technology shouldn’t just exist in a lab; it needs to empower local collectors and individual households to manage their waste responsibly.”
Key Features of the Complete Waste Management Platform
The software is custom-designed for municipalities, private collectors, recycling centers, and corporate campuses. It operates seamlessly as both a Web Application and a Mobile Application, offering key benefits:
Cost Reduction: Optimizes vehicle routing and scheduling to lower operational expenses.
Increased Recycling Rates: Tracks recyclable materials from source to facility, ensuring less waste ends up in landfills.
Total Transparency: Provides real-time data dashboards for supervisors to monitor daily collection progress and citizen feedback.
Get Started Online
The ready-to-deploy software package is now commercially available. Municipal leaders, corporate representatives, and private waste vendors can read full features, request a custom quote, or purchase a package directly online.
