The Equipment You Need to Compete
hen he began his Presidency, Joe Biden unveiled the centerpiece of his domestic agenda: a twopronged, $4 trillion effort to transform the U.S. economy by overhauling the nation’s infrastructure and expanding aid to families. The plan had gone little to nowhere as politicians on both sides of the aisle couldn't agree on what to include in the bill, much less how to pay for it. Then Biden and a bipartisan group of senators announced they had reached a compromise on part of it: a $1.2 trillion framework to fund roads, electric-vehicle charging stations, broadband and other physical infrastructure. The pared-down plan calls for $559 billion in new spending over five years, including $110 billion of new money being invested in roads, bridges and other projects. In response to the news, the Dow rose 0.88% and the Nasdaq was up 0.72%. Shares in top industry suppliers like Caterpillar and Vulcan Materials also rose immediately and even construction companies like Granite Construction saw a boost. While the immediate boost is great, economists say the infrastructure package will really begin boosting growth starting in 2023, as it takes time for major building and repair projects to get under way. But in 2025 and 2026 the extra package would add a healthy one percentage point to the economy’s growth rate and create up to about 775,000 jobs.
Y
Last month, the U.S. Chamber reported that 88% of contractors surveyed claimed they were experiencing moderate to high levels of difficulty finding skilled workers. Of those who reported difficulty finding skilled labor, over a third have turned down work because of skilled labor shortages. If we can't find the workers we need to do the jobs required of us, we're going to need to learn how to work smarter. Change in the asphalt industry has been slow and difficult, but equipment and technology to help contractors do their jobs more efficiently and with better results are being developed every day. If we are able to secure a long term investment in infrastructure, there's going to be a flood of work and activity that will come with a long term plan. With that raised level of activity, it's going to be really hard to deliver what we're going to be required to deliver without innovation, without technology and without really thinking about creative solutions to be much more effective. Asphalt Contractor's annual showcase and buyer's guide features all of the tried and true equipment contractor's love, but also pages of new equipment that can help you be more successful as more projects head your way. Profits for many companies tied to the construction or industrial sector are projected to gain ground over the next several years as the economy recovers. Any spending measure spread out over years will help secure and boost that growth through contracts for projects and orders for supplies and equipment. How will you ensure your company is ready for the increase of work? Let me know at jlombardo@acbusinessmedia.com.

BOMAP CONNECT
The Next Step in Intelligent Compaction. OMAG has been perfecting compaction since 1957, leading the way with innovative technology at every turn. “The introduction of the BOMAP app at Bauma in 2019 was a giant step forward for soil and asphalt compaction in the digital age,” says Bert Erdmann, a compaction industry veteran with more than 25 years in the business and a leading expert for BOMAG Americas. “Now BOMAG is introducing BOMAP Connect, which represents the next level of intelligent compaction.” BOMAP helps prevent unnecessary passes, which saves time, fuel and money. The app displays live maps of the construction site and a color scale indicates the compaction progress in real time, giving the operator clear instructions on what needs to be done to achieve the best results. The operator passes over green and red areas until the target has been reached, when the area turns blue. “Fewer passes translates into reduced wear on your equipment and improved on-site time management,” says Erdmann, “plus it reduces your CO2 footprint.” After the work is done, you can save your documentation in a PDF file. “There are competitors out there with similar solutions,” says Erdmann, “but BOMAP Connect now allows contractors to leap into the future.” BOMAP runs on all standard Android tablets and smartphones. The app can be downloaded for free from the Google Play store.

BOMAP Connect networks all compaction machines on a construction site in real time, regardless of manufacturer. It shows site managers and every operator on the job the current compaction status of the entire site. BOMAG Connect takes the guesswork out, says Erdmann. “Think about it like this: In asphalt compaction, there is a narrow window of time once the material is laid to gain optimal compaction because the material is cooling. Using the app, a job site foreman can assess in a glance by color and then direct a finish roller to an area before it cools off to help ensure the best compaction results are being achieved – and BOMAP Connect documents everything. This interconnectivity creates the ideal conditions for next-level intelligent compaction.” With the optional BOMAP antenna, the map display of the compaction process achieves GPS positioning with “track-to-track” precision accuracy of up to 20 cm (7.8 inches). When using the optional open interface BOMAG JOBLINK Bluetooth connection on BOMAG equipment, BOMAP enables access to all process-related data, such as: EVIB or ECONOMIZER value, frequency, amplitude, temperature, speed and direction. Third-party machines in the fleet also interconnect and help to
BOMAP CONNEC
T:
THE NEXT EVOLUT INTELLIGENT CO ION IN MPACTION
generate a compaction record across the construction site for pass counting and mapping. “That means you now have the ability to meet any future tender requirements, such as Continuous Compaction Control,” Erdmann says. BOMAP Connect can also interface directly with systems such as VETA for reporting requirements. “With BOMAP Connect, the entire compaction process of a project can be planned, controlled, tracked and documented. Even mixed fleets can be monitored and tracked easily without extensive equipment or added costs,” says Erdmann. “BOMAP Connect offers everything in one solution for maximally efficient soil and asphalt compaction, providing all the data you need when you need it, on site or in the office.” Learn more about BOMAP at www.forconstructionpros. com/21064597
