The BMC will assist in penalizing the contractors for their subpar job and aims to set up a control room for real-time tracking of waste collection vehicles. All of the garbage collection trucks, dumpers, and compactors owned by the municipal solid waste management (SWM) department currently have vehicle-tracking monitoring systems (VTMS) fitted in them. The municipal organisation hasn't yet established a special control room to monitor it, though.

In 2018, the municipal authorities mandated the use of VTMS for all of its vehicles, which included water tankers, rubbish, waste, and silt dumping vehicles. Following the 2015 exposure of the nullah-desilting scheme, the decision was made. All vehicles now have access to the tracking and monitoring system, allowing government officials to keep tabs on actions and stop wrongdoing. Currently, despite the department's cars being equipped with VTMS devices, there is little oversight and documentation.

"We intend to modernize the system and build a database by assigning a specialized crew to monitor these cars in real time. We intend to establish a control room either at the Worli garage or at BMC's Grant Road office. It will feature a video wall and other apparatus, and three shifts of municipal employees will watch the feed. With this control room, we'll be able to keep an accurate record. It will enable us to impose strict guidelines on contractors who perform poorly," a high-ranking municipal official stated.
