EquipmentShare Completes $290 Million Funding Round

Supply Chain
Written By Rick Watson

EquipmentShare is a nationwide construction solutions provider dedicated to solving industry pain points through smart jobsite technology and equipment rental, retail and service centers.

ConstructionShare allows contractors visibility into all their operations on the jobsite. This includes things like bottlenecks in their fleet, machines that have gone offline, and job and equipment utilization reports. Although I am skeptical that there will be so many winners in this kind of visibility market, it is likely that there could be one winner for industry given that customers tend to follow each other's solutions.
