What if I had full visibility into the location, size, condition and type of all of my Industrial containers?

  • Could my drivers move more efficiently between hauls with an accurate and visible inventory?

  • Could I mitigate lost or stolen assets across an entire line of business?

  • Could I track the condition of those assets and know “customer-ready” boxes from those that needs repair?

  • Could I track customer inactivity from accounts where valuable inventory should be generating haul revenue?

  • Could I reduce capital spend and improve asset utilization by pulling from inventory that I didn’t realize I had on hand?

What if I could verify residential curbside service in real-time for an entire fleet?

  • Could I save operating expense through dynamic confirmation of cart tips or “not-outs”?

  • Could a municipal solid waste manager benefit from requiring service verification to drive customer satisfaction?

  • Could service verification drive serious gains in customer satisfaction and service efficiency performance through improved response and resolution time?

What if I could improve my fleet safety performance with proactive KPI’s and dynamic trend analysis?

  • Could better safe driving behaviors be realized through tracking and coaching on hard braking and speeding events?

  • Could improved driving behavior translate to lower equipment maintenance spend?

  • Could all of this result in fewer accidents and injuries, and how much intrinsic value does this provide to my business?

 

RVision is Rehrig Pacific’s enhanced technology platform made available for customer utilization. The RVision platform is designed to provide actionable business intelligence, and is focused on maximizing our customer’s return on investment in fleet (truck) and container (carts, dumpsters, roll-offs and compactors) assets across all lines of business.

By empowering RVision customers with information to make better business decisions, they have realized productivity gains, increases in asset utilization, reduction in unnecessary operating costs, enhanced customer experience and improved revenue.

Necessity is the Mother of Invention…

When you look back on the history of Rehrig Pacific, there are several defining moments that have shaped who Rehrig is today. In 1986, we introduced the very first 18-gallon curbside recycling bin to better accommodate increases in recycling program participation. In 1992, to support our customers’ growing transition to automated collection, we installed our first Roll Out Cart machine. And, in 2008 we implemented Rehrig’s first “CARTS” asset tracking software with a major metropolitan municipal customer, who sought out a technology partner in support of managing their variable size/multiple commodity collection operation.  

What all of these achievements have in common is that they have been customer-driven … a true response to a need. These needs are met because Rehrig Pacific’s great family of employees is so adept at building strong relationships with our customers. With solid relationships comes listening and understanding of needs. And the real talent comes in with our ability to solve or fill the need, often by coming up with real innovations and industry-moving ideas. 

This brings us to our latest “need-solving” endeavor: the enterprise launch of RVision, another defining moment for Rehrig Pacific.

RVision is fully scalable and customizable for each of our customers based on their specific objectives. The RVision technology offering consists of four modules, each of which addresses a specific business need in various parts of our customers’ operations.
