A growing set of environmental and market demands is emerging, which will require cultural and structural change within the people of the waste management industry, if the industry is to respond, to meet those demands, and to survive into the next decade. 

The environmental and market demands arise from a global need for improvements in the efficiency of operations, in the economics of wealth creation activities, in the utilisation of resources and in the management of the environment. 

The customers of the waste management industry are responding to internal and external pressures from their shareholders, the community, their customers and the regulators, to improve their overall performance. 

These performance improvements will be measured in terms of the eco-efficiency of their operations - and the performance of our will industry will be measured in terms of the eco-efficiency of the solutions that our Members are responsible for developing. 

To be effective in this challenge, the waste management industry must become pro-active in developing solutions within the operations of our customers. It will no longer be good enough to sit and wait to collect wastes and emissions at the end of the pipe.

The challenge for our Members is to create value-added goods out of the by-products of the waste generators and deliver multiple economic and environmental benefits in the process. 

The waste management industry is being presented with a unique opportunity where the demand for integrated resource management services, is emerging and expected to grow rapidly, but where the supply of the requisite capabilities is lagging behind that demand. 

The gap being created, through this imbalance between supply and demand, can only be capitalised upon if the waste management industry undertakes the necessary structural and cultural changes. 

The WMAA has a pivotal role in fostering appropriate changes within the skill-set and cultures of its Members, to enable the industry to respond to the challenges and grasp the opportunity in advance of the gap being closed.
