Infrastructure Contractors To Reap Benefits From Teaming of Leading Heavy Equipment and Technology Companies.
Tempe, AZ – March 19, 2002— Hard Dollar Corporation, the leading provider of integrated cost estimating software and project management systems for the infrastructure construction industry, and Komatsu America International Company (KAIC), the second-largest supplier of construction equipment in North America, announced a new strategic alliance at a press conference today at the CONEXPO–CON/AGC-2002 convention. As part of this alliance, Komatsu made a $2 million equity investment in Hard Dollar. The two companies are now pursuing corporate initiatives that include joint marketing programs and technology development to enhance existing product offerings, as well as to offer new products.
This alliance brings together two pools of vast industry knowledge specific to the infrastructure construction sector. Komatsu’s expertise in heavy earthmoving and utility equipment, and Hard Dollar’s established presence in these markets, will allow both companies to share information that will benefit the customer, and provide better management of the entire customer life-cycle.
