The article presents the development and key features of an innovative Minimum Viable Product (MVP) of the E-Waste digital platform designed to enable fast and efficient communication between waste generators and waste-management operators. The MVP requires the use of modern software-engineering approaches and geoinformation technologies to address environmental challenges at local and regional levels. The solution had no analogues on the Ukrainian market at the time of its creation and is aligned with EU waste legislation, the National Waste Management Strategy of Ukraine until 2030, and contemporary trends in digitalization and transparent decision-making for environmental safety.The E-Waste platform aims to enhance efficiency in waste management, support monitoring of illegal dumping and uncontrolled disposal, and foster the transition towards a sustainable circular economy based on ESG principles. Integration with Geographic Information Systems (GIS) enables mapping of waste locations and licensed operators, while an analytical module supports governmental and municipal bodies in tracking waste flows. The platform’s architecture combines process automation, secure data exchange, and counterparty verification in a unified information environment.The socio-economic impact includes stimulation of small and medium-sized enterprises in the environmental services sector, raising public awareness regarding proper waste management, and supporting Ukraine’s implementation of international environmental obligations and EU directives. The E-Waste platform is considered a promising tool that can underpin further improvement of waste-management infrastructure, regional scaling, and the integration of advanced technologies (such as blockchain) to ensure operational transparency.
