Appointments


 

 

CASE Construction Equipment has announced that Jim Hasler is retiring as vice president – North America, effective in April 2016, after 34 years of service with the company. Scott Harris, the current vice president of Parts and Service for CNH Industrial, will take over the role and oversee the North American construction equipment operations for CASE.

Mr. Harris first joined CNH Industrial’s Capital group in 2006 as U.S. sales manager for construction equipment, and later served as northeast region sales manager for both agricultural and construction equipment. In 2007, he became senior director of sales and marketing for that division. His last role with CNH Capital was as vice president of U.S. financial services and operations, where he was responsible for the overall sales growth and profitability of CNH Capital’s financial products and services.

“Through his various roles with CNH Industrial over the last decade, Scott has gained a comprehensive knowledge of the entire equipment life cycle, from purchase to application to care and maintenance,” says Brad Crews, COO-NAFTA, CNH Industrial. “He is a strong, knowledgeable voice that will lead and grow our construction equipment organization as the market continues to evolve.”

“Jim Hasler has been an outstanding leader, colleague and friend to many throughout his career with CASE, and we wish him the absolute best in his retirement,” concluded Mr. Crews.

New Hamilton-Halton Construction Association (HHCA) president Matt Vervoorn has started his term by focusing on better meeting the needs of member contractors, providing value for money and becoming the resource construction companies need to face the challenges of a competitive and ever changing marketplace.

“The HHCA was founded in 1920; the industry has changed a lot since then. We need to make every effort to remain relevant and valuable to our members,” says Mr. Vervoorn, a principal with Morrison Hershfield. “To do that we’re reviewing our member value proposition, evaluating what we have on offer and identifying opportunities for improvement.”

Matt Vervoorn, who succeeded Blair Hubber of Lancaster Group as president of the HHCA, joined the board of directors in 2008. The association changed their bylaws in 2015 to allow him to take on the role of president.

“Prior to the bylaw change the association president had to be a contractor. The membership decided they did not want to be limited and now allow MS&S members to serve in a leadership capacity,” says Mr. Vervoorn. “I feel privileged to have the opportunity to serve as president and I like to think I bring another perspective to the table. Of course, contractors are still well represented in our governance structure.”

Matt Vervoorn was elected president at the HHCA’s 96th Annual General Meeting and Dinner on February 18, 2016.
