Deepak's team is in charge of conducting a review of their company's waste/mistake prevention policies and procedures. Part of this review should also evaluate how upcoming changes in information systems will affect business activities.

True / False.

True

Explanation:

Although the business segments related to waste management and information systems may seem irrelevant at start, these two are often intertwined.

In order to successfully forecast the future of waste prevention and management, managers should take into consideration IS and their benefits. For example, how can a new IS that is scheduled for implementation next year affect the existing, real-time waste management system? Can the existing process be automatized and simplified with the aid of the IS?

Therefore, it is needed to include the IS aspect in the waste prevention policy review.
