Robert Hamilton has been added to the Schwing Field Service Team. Hamilton brings a wealth of valuable experience to his new position, most recently with Southern California Industrial Equipment, Corona, California.

In his nearly four years with the company, Hamilton advanced from field service technician to lead service tech. He spent his first one-and-a-half years diagnosing and repairing equipment at customer locations. Most recently, he had been working directly under the service manager training new technicians.

Putzmeister America, Inc. has hired Mike Eubank as a North Region sales representative. In this role, Eubank will be responsible for securing direct sales and dealer channel sales. Eubank has eight years of sales experience in concrete materials and supplies. He began his career with an inside sales position at a construction equipment rental company, and most recently worked with Logan Contractors Supply in Olathe, Kansas.

Due to increased sales of Schwing concrete pumps, the company’s service department has added a certified boom inspector for customers in the Southeast U.S. Jim Indelicato will join the nationwide team of Schwing certified boom inspectors located throughout North America. He comes to the position with extensive welding experience—an important skill if a boom inspection reveals repairs are needed.

Conco Pumping recently received two different safety awards: the 2019 Albert H. Atwood Safety Achievement Award and the Southern California Contractor Association (SCCA) Zero Accidents 2018 award.

The Atwood Award was made on the basis of Conco’s diligent efforts over the course of four years to address the safety risk posed by the lack of fall protection systems on concrete boom pumps, separate placing booms and Telebelt mobile conveyors. As a prominent commercial concrete contractor, Conco was uniquely positioned to address the issue.
