Leica Geosystems expands market reach in Michigan

The 13-year old engineering consulting firm, Abletech of Dexter, Michigan, has recently become a Leica Geosystems' machine automation distributor primarily serving Michigan. Abletech has been a consulting engineering firm associated with site preparation projects involving commercial, industrial and residential developments, and environmental land projects. "Abletech has the knowledge and understanding of the construction market to be a great success," said Fred Rogers, director of machine automation sales, Leica Geosystems, Americas.

Abletech's president, Michael Olson said, "The machine automation systems product line offered by Leica Geosystems is an ideal fit for enhancing the new direction I am taking our company. Instead of consulting for-a-fee basis, as we did in the past, we now offer our engineering expertise on site preparation and other construction projects in association with the application of Leica Geosystems' machine automation equipment."

Mr. Olson chose to take on the Leica Geosystems product line based on the business experiences he had with an Abletech customer. "We have installed more than 80 Leica Geosystems' GPS permanent reference stations in Michigan and New York for Leica Geosystems, through our association with the company we have learned that its machine automation equipment is not only leading the industry with advanced technology but the Leica Geosystems people are very knowledgeable, professional and it's a pleasure to work with them”.
