EMBRACES DATA ANALYTICS
The Association of Equipment Manufacturers,
Milwaukee, has acquired Minneapolis-based Har-
grove & Associates Inc. (HAI), a data processing
and business analytics company for whom it has
been a client since 1989. The move dovetails a
manufacturing industry transformation, driven
by the innovative use of data, and enables AEM
to further develop its statistics program for con-
struction and agricultural equipment members.
“Insights gained through participation in
[the] program give members an advantage in
an increasingly competitive global marketplace,”
says AEM President Dennis Slater. “Through
investment in HAI, we look to sharpen this
competitive advantage.”
“We are looking forward to how this deep-
ening of our 30-year working relationship will
position both of our groups for exciting growth
and technological opportunities, while maintain-
ing strong commitment to the data program so
valued by the equipment industry,” notes HAI
President Claire Hargrove.
The firm will operate as a stand-alone AEM
subsidiary in its current Minneapolis office, she
adds, and continue to maintain sole access
and handling of company data. In addition to
customer care and support, HAI employees will
collaborate with AEM on projects using advanced
data analytics that bring value to association
members.
