Industry Leading Repair Management Software with Pluss - The DL S2E43 by Tyler Robertson

In this episode of The DL, Diesel Laptops Founder and CEO Tyler Robertson is joined by John Rozum, Director of Ag & Utility Exhibitions and Events at Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM) to talk all about expos, recent changes, what to expect in the future and what AEM does. AEM provides services for companies that manufacture equipment, product and services used worldwide in the Construction, Agriculture, Forestry, Mining, and Utility industries, as well as a wide array of benefits that help members.

John explains how Covid-19 was devastating to the events and hospitality industries, however, it has changed the way the industry thinks and how they do things, regarding contingencies, contracting, and communications. As some shows have moved to virtual, they do not allow for the same tactile experience that a live event would, so shows are evolving to meet new needs. In the future we can expect larger spaces, improved experiences, etc., starting with The Utility Expo, coming up September 28-30, 2021. Other changes to expect to from exhibitors will be innovative autonomous and semi-autonomous equipment, as manufacturers improve and build upon the technology.

It’s just not diagnostics, it is diagnostics done right. Go find your right tools and equipment that you need for your business. A great place to do that is at The Utility Expo.

In this episode of The DL, Diesel Laptops Founder and CEO Tyler Robertson is joined by Matt Leffler, the Vice President of Trailer Solutions, to discuss how trailers, often an idle asset can be turned into valuable revenue. vHub, an online platform that makes smart trailer sharing possible for the transportation industry, enables anyone to quickly find a trailer and rent it on their automated platform. To do so generates revenue and saves on trailer fleet repositioning costs for the owner.

We also learn about telematics and GPS tracking solutions. It’s important to know where your asset is as well as being able to collect data from it to stay on top of condition-based maintenance. This is vital to the trucking industry with a shortage of diesel technicians because it is technology that drives efficiency by helping to stage the bay so that parts can be ordered and are ready to go once the truck arrives, which equals less downtime.

Be sure to check out vHub to learn more about how you can turn your idle assets into revenue.
