Automated and Connected, JLG Envisions Job Sites of Future

McCONNELLSBURG, PA -- JLG Industries, a manufacturer of mobile elevating work platforms and telehandlers, is redefining productivity and safety in its latest whitepaper, “The Job Site of the Future: From Equipment-Centric to Ecosystem Orchestration.”

For decades, job sites have relied on access equipment, such as mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs) and telehandlers, to complete tasks at height, said Nate Hoover, JLG’s Senior Director of Product Management.

“In JLG’s vision for the future, these machines do more, part of an interconnected ecosystem that communicates, coordinates and optimizes operations in real-time — enhancing efficiency, reducing downtime and improving safety.”

The whitepaper outlines a transformative shift in job site operations, offering an innovative blueprint for leveraging automation, connectivity and data to redefine productivity and safety.

Key highlights include:
Ecosystem Orchestration -- A New Paradigm:
•     Dynamic monitoring and modification of equipment performance,
