Noregon recently announced the opening of its new Innovation Center, an 18,500 square foot building in Greensboro, North Carolina located within a few miles of Noregon’s corporate headquarters and product configuration/fulfillment center.
The new location is a hub for training, testing, and developing Noregon’s suite of hardware and software applications, such as JPRO, ShopPulse, and DLA adapters.
“To meet our customers’ evolving needs, we must ensure our tools cover a wide variety of vehicles and equipment,” said Bill A. Hathaway, Noregon’s chief executive officer. “Investing in this new facility gives us the space to house everything from bulldozers to box trucks. Our research, development, and testing processes will be more efficient than ever to meet the industry’s rapidly changing technological landscape.”
The facility boasts a 5,000 square foot training center, 3,000 square feet of office space, and a shop space with multiple bay doors and loading docks. The shop is divided into two sections, with one housing lighter vehicles and equipment such as skid steers and small delivery vehicles, while the other side is reserved for heavier equipment like backhoes and class 6-8 tractors. Additionally, there is an outdoor lot to accommodate larger equipment like excavators.
A climate-controlled lab within the shop provides specialized workstations for Noregon’s developers and test engineers. Offices and conference rooms fill out the building, which is adjoined by the training center.
“We’re thrilled to have a dedicated space that can host customers, partners, and our sales teams from all across North America for hands-on training,” said Hathaway. “Being able to take what they learn in the training center and apply it to real-life examples in the shop is an invaluable experience.”
Noregon is a leading solutions provider for the maintenance, service, and upkeep of commercial vehicles and heavy-duty equipment. Noregon’s offerings include in-shop and remote diagnostic applications, interactive maintenance and service guides, custom development, and more.
