The National Center for Waste Management (MWAN), in collaboration with the Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture, the Environment Fund, and the National Center for Privatization & PPP, has invited private sector companies to participate in developing a nationwide digital waste management platform through a public-private partnership in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

The platform is set to provide a broad range of digital services through seven core business applications backed by 27 functional modules. These components will address key functions such as licensing, stakeholder and customer management, electronic waste tracking (e-manifest), compliance monitoring, and advanced analytics. Delivered under an 11-year Design, Build, Finance, Operate, Maintain, and Transfer (DBFOMT) model, the initiative is intended to establish a fully integrated digital foundation for Saudi Arabia’s waste sector. Once operational, it is expected to consolidate data, improve operational efficiency, and strengthen regulatory oversight across the entire waste value chain.

A central objective of the initiative is to enable real-time data collection and analysis, allowing authorities to monitor performance, ensure compliance, and integrate stakeholders more effectively. Continuous system upgrades and operational reliability will be maintained throughout the project lifecycle. The EOI submission deadline has been set for May 6, 2026, marking the first phase in attracting private sector participation for what is expected to be a cornerstone project in Saudi Arabia’s environmental infrastructure.
