KANSAS CITY, Mo., January 25, 2018 (Newswire.com) - Custom Truck and Equipment/Utility One Source (CTE) and Terex Utilities today announced a strategic partnership to better serve the investor-owned utility (IOUs), electric contractors, and forestry segments in the U.S. The two industry-leading companies are teaming up to provide an enhanced commercial offering which will include increased availability to equipment packages, improved delivery cycle times, expanded product lines, flexible financing solutions, and cradle-to-grave fleet support, including asset disposal.
In the expanded alliance, Terex will leverage CTE’s industry expertise, end-user relationships, engineering capabilities and installation expertise to deliver enhanced products and services to IOUs and electric utility contractors. In addition to its significant rental inventory, CTE will grow on-hand and customizable equipment packages available for sale, and leverage high-volume chassis and body shipments to ensure timely delivery of custom orders. Expanded inventory will be available through CTE’s network of 24 locations throughout the U.S., and will include new and existing Terex Utilities product lines. CTE already provides the chassis and installation on more than 6,000 trucks through 11 state-of-the-art installation facilities nationwide. CTE will pursue continued expansion of its installation capacity through acquisitions and organic growth. CTE will respond to the ongoing needs of the market with equipment innovations by expanding Load King’s portfolio of manufactured products.
We carefully evaluated the electric utility segment and are pleased to announce an expanded partnership with CTE that complements our existing comprehensive dealer and rental network.
