CONSTRUCTION technology provider SITECH UK & Ireland has joined the Scottish Plant Owners Association (SPOA), in a bid to strengthen existing relationships and support continued growth in the industry.
The authorised dealer of Trimble Civil Construction Field Systems in the UK & Ireland wants to open the door to new businesses and sectors looking to enhance site operations.
Liam Payne, technical sales consultant, explained, “SITECH is proud to become a member of the SPOA as it represents a mark of quality in the industry. Having already attended events in Aberdeen, we have seen immediate benefits from membership, including networking with prospective clients in mechanical, electrical, power and renewables businesses, which has translated into multiple sales opportunities.
“By combining both on and off-machine technology, plant hire operators can benefit from precision earthmoving, improved performance and reduced rework. Trimble Business Centre and Works Manager complete the fully connected technology ecosystem, providing total visibility and control across a project’s multiple phases – all of which helps support teams on the ground complete work accurately and on time.”
With Scotland targeting net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2045, decarbonisation is a key priority for the SPOA. SITECH added that by combining technology, training and expertise, the firm supports customers in enhancing sustainability and fleet performance, including plant hire customers whose sustainability requirements are increasingly stringent in line with government targets.
Gail McEwen, VP of the SPOA, said, “To meet rising demand, construction firms are rethinking how they approach projects from start to finish. Technology is transforming the construction landscape across Scotland, and digital tools are helping projects achieve better levels of productivity, accuracy, safety and sustainability. The SPOA is pleased to welcome SITECH as a new member, contributing to the wider digital innovation taking place across the plant and construction sectors.”
