Systems are becoming more sophisticated with the ability to generate and analyze more data, allowing transit systems to improve safety, efficiency and cut costs.
Overall, 2013 companies on Deloitte's list achieved revenue growth ranging from 137% to 208,897% from 2008 to 2012, with an average growth of 2,600%.

First launched in fall 2012 as a pilot program serving Trenton-area bus customers, the system uses “smart bus” technology to provide customers with access to real-time bus arrival estimates to a specific bus stop within a 30-minute window.
With the development of smart devices and open data platforms in the transit market, fleet efficiency solutions are becoming much more diverse. Rather than buying a telematics suite, customers can mix and match to keep costs low.
MyBus Now will provide riders on 16 Mercer County-area bus routes with access to real-time bus arrival estimates to a specific bus stop within a 30-minute window.
The company, which was formerly a wholly owned subsidiary of Digital Recorders Inc., will become a division of Clever Devices, remaining in its facility in Durham, N.C.
Both are based in Clever Devices’ headquarters in Plainview, N.Y.
Currently, the company has thousands of mobile data computer systems in operation, most of which are installed in paratransit fleets.
The agency is currently taking delivery of 1,145 new buses that are already equipped with smart bus technology provided by Clever Devices. The procurement of additional smart bus platforms for the remaining buses, along with the contract amendment for contracted bus routes, will enable NJ Transit's entire bus fleet to be equipped with this technology.
