Rubicon Technologies enters five-year smart city partnership with Phoenix

Rubicon Technologies announced that it has entered into a five-year smart city partnership with the City of Phoenix, Arizona to digitize and improve efficiencies across the City’s solid waste collection operation. The agreement will put Rubicon’s smart city software at the heart of Phoenix’s Public Works Department, providing waste and recycling collection to more than 418,000 locations weekly. Rubicon will help the City digitize its solid waste collection operation, transitioning from largely manual and paper-based processes to using tablets running Rubicon’s software in Phoenix’s solid waste and recycling fleet of more than 300 vehicles. The City will use Rubicon’s technology to streamline collection services, and reduce missed pickups and unnecessary go-backs. With digital routes, the City will be able to closely monitor route performance, identify areas where waste and recycling services can be improved, and make data-driven decisions to enhance route efficiency and better serve the Phoenix community.
