AI for EPR: From Data to Reporting
Where to start with AI to improve EPR data collection, target tracking and compliance reporting.
AI can support EPR compliance by streamlining data and reporting. Here’s a practical view.
Data collection - Use tools to aggregate packaging data from ERP or spreadsheets so you have category-wise, period-wise figures for EPR targets. - Automate basic checks (e.g. totals, category splits) to catch errors before filing.
Target tracking - Dashboards can show target vs. fulfilled (certificates + recycling) so you see shortfalls early. - Alerts can remind you when certificate procurement or data submission is due.
Reporting - Templates and pre-filled forms (aligned with Form I/II) can reduce manual entry. - Keep a clear audit trail: AI can help organise documents and certificates by year and category.
Where to start - Start with one waste category (e.g. plastic) and one process (e.g. data compilation for Form I). - Ensure data privacy and access controls; use only trusted tools and vendors.
AI is an enabler—your EPR strategy and discipline still drive compliance. We can help you design the right data and reporting setup.
