This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Service to modify a service contract with Rubicon Global LLC for the provision of GPS tracking and route diagnostics for the Division of Refuse Collection fleet. This a planned contract modification.
The aforementioned project allows the Division of Refuse Collection to maximize efficiencies and to assess streets for pot holes, illegal dumping, and other street maintenance, as the vehicles travel around their assigned routes.
Rubicon is a proprietary, on-demand routing solution that will interface with existing routing software systems Lucity and GIS. The process enhances efficiencies for the Division of Refuse Collection creating a streamlined option to develop optimized bulk collection and container management routes each day.

Public Service and the Division of Refuse Collection would like to continue this service for year two of the initial three year contract term, and add funds in the amount of up to $134,160.00 to pay for these additional services.
