Gilbertson said: "as RDO becomes John Deere's construction distributor in the mountains, adding technology components is a priority so that we can provide customers with the full range of technology solutions they need.". Rocky Mountain Transit&laser has more than 30 years of experience in building technology. They are pioneers in the control technology of construction machinery, and we are very pleased to welcome these employees to join our team and build on their achievements. "

All Rocky Mountain Transit&Laser employees accepted RDO positions. Rocky mountain transportation and lasers, based in Las Vegas, nev. And Salt Lake City, Utah, will be renamed RDO equipment's building technology store. In these locations, customers will get solutions from leading manufacturers, such as TOPCON, a positioning technology provider, serving a variety of industries and applications.
