communiquer

français vers anglais Technique / Génie Ingénierie (général) general business terminology
Le choix du gisement et de sa pérennité, afin de proposer le traitement total des déchets, ce qui peut paraître complexe mais permettra à notre futur partenaire de communiquer et s’exonérer d’un tiers collecteur et éliminateur à prix variable.

I searched for the term on Proz, but found only a legal interpretation, which does not seem to fit here. I am wondering if 'communiquer' here means something along the lines of 'pass on the profit' (although it clearly doesn't actually say that). It certainly seems to be talking about cutting out the middleman. The context is a proposed partner in the waste recycling business - proposals for expansion and working with new partners etc. Any help would be most appreciated.

also in English "communicate" can have the (fifth) connotation of "To interact with another or others in a meaningful fashion: connect, relate. Slang click. Idioms: be on the same wavelength, hit it off." I am citing from the link below ....

I understand that they want to establish the business in an area generating a constant stream of waste of the kinds required. To ensure they harness this stream (that it does not go into other waste channels, that other processing companies don't get it) they will need to have effective communication with consumers (generators of waste). By having such effective communication themselves, they will not need to avail themselves of the services of a "third-party communicator" (agency, consultant??).

"Where there's muck, there's money" (or "brass" with a short A).

The corollory to that, these days, is "Where there's money, there's a communication agency".
