A new chapter is opening for construction contractors in the Midwest. Martin Equipment, a long-time John Deere Construction & Forestry dealer, has been officially named the newest Trimble Technology Outlet. Headquartered in Goodfield, Illinois, the company will now provide Trimble grade control, site positioning systems, and correction services directly to its customers across Illinois, Iowa, and Missouri.
What This Means for John Deere and Wacker Neuson Customers
Thanks to this partnership, contractors running John Deere and Wacker Neuson earthmoving machines — from dozers and excavators to motor graders, compactors, and track loaders — will now have direct access to Trimble’s cutting-edge technology.
Trimble solutions are known for connecting the digital and physical sides of construction. With this move, buying, installing, and supporting advanced grade control and positioning systems becomes much easier for mixed fleets across the Midwest.
Trimble’s Strategy for Civil Construction
Trimble Technology Outlets play a key role in the company’s distribution strategy. By working with trusted local dealers, Trimble ensures that contractors using different machine brands can boost productivity and profitability with one technology platform.
“Martin Equipment has built a reputation for exceptional service for nearly 100 years, and we are excited to announce that service will now include Trimble technology,” – Ron Bisio, Senior Vice President, Trimble Field Systems.
He emphasized that the goal is to make jobsite technology seamless, practical, and profitable for contractors.
Martin Equipment Expands Its Legacy
Founded back in 1926, Martin Equipment has grown into a fourth-generation, family- and woman-owned John Deere dealer with nine locations and over 250 employees. The company has always been known for legendary customer service, and this new step only strengthens that reputation.
“Our commitment to delivering exceptional service is matched by the strength of the brands we represent. By offering Trimble technology for John Deere and Wacker Neuson, we’re helping contractors unlock new efficiencies,” – DeLene Bane, President and Owner, Martin Equipment.
The company promises full support with installation, service, and training for every Trimble product sold.
“Our goal is to make technology work for our customers, not the other way around,” – Jeremi “JB” Briggs, Integrated Technology Manager at Martin Equipment.
A Win for Midwest Contractors
For contractors in Illinois, Iowa, and Missouri, this partnership is big news. It means direct access to precision technology that can cut costs, speed up workflows, and improve accuracy on jobsites. For John Deere operators in particular, Trimble’s solutions will bring a new level of smart, connected performance.
With Martin Equipment stepping in as a Trimble Technology Outlet, the future of construction in the Midwest is looking more productive than ever.
