Case Study: Central Arizona Project achieves streamlined compliance and diverts 835 tons of waste from landfill with Cority

Central Arizona Project Digitally Transforms Waste Management Program to Streamline Compliance and Minimize Environmental Impact

Central Arizona Project, Arizona’s largest renewable water supplier, faced missed permit deadlines, sprawling Excel-based tracking, and limited visibility into corrective actions across its 336-mile operations. To modernize its environmental and waste management programs, CAP turned to Cority, implementing Cority’s Environmental Management solution (including the myCority mobile app) to replace spreadsheets and email chains.

Cority enabled CAP to manage cradle-to-grave waste processes in real time—logging, barcoding, shipping, and tracking all waste streams—while providing dashboards and automated alerts to ensure compliance. The Cority deployment delivered measurable impact: a 49% decrease in Opportunities to Correct, 835 tons of waste diverted from landfill, dramatic time savings on reporting (from weeks to about an hour), and no missed compliance dates.
