The technology

The smartest way for government to manage heavy-duty fleets

RUBICONSmartCity is a technology suite that helps local governments everywhere run more efficient, effective, and sustainable operations. A software-as-a-service (SaaS) offering originally designed for waste and recycling fleets, this full-service solution can be deployed across virtually any fleet to help reduce costs, improve service, and contribute to an enhanced quality of life for citizens.

  • Operational cost savings
  • Enhanced customer service
  • Improved fleet efficiency

The benefits

Maximize resources

Local governments today need to do more with less. RUBICONSmartCity helps transform government owned fleets into roaming infrastructure assessment tools.

The benefits

Achieve safety gains

Our technology helps improve neighborhood streetscapes by monitoring vehicle health, improving driver behavior, and ensuring that materials are collected efficiently. The results: fewer vehicle accidents, less road wear, and safer communities.

The benefits

Become proactive

The best-run communities are those that anticipate citizens’ needs before they call. The RUBICONSmartCity technology suite delivers insights about specific problems within a community, enabling governments to act rather than react and, in turn, lead to more sustainable, resilient, and equitable neighborhoods.

The benefits

Realize measurable ROI

A high-value, low-cost solution, the RUBICONSmartCity system serves as the eyes and ears of a community and can improve the operations of individual vehicles, fleets, and entire workforces—helping save tax dollars and reduce the administrative burden on local government employees.

RUBICONSmartCity will finally—and I do mean finally—digitize trash and recycling routes in Baltimore City, allowing collection crews to cover routes more effectively and efficiently.

Since we joined with Rubicon, we have seen citizen satisfaction increase in solid waste collection by 17 percent. It’s really helping us to be far more on time and on task and to be far more efficient. We’ve seen over two million dollars cost savings in delivering those services in just trash collection alone.
