Company profile:

You don a high-vis vest, a hard hat and maybe wipe sweat from your brow at day's end.  This may not be the type of business you expect to see break the status quo and embark upon a digital transformation, now, of all times.  But it's happening.  In Digital, you may not require the safety equipment, but this is what the business does: Supply chain, automation and soon enough, digital products.  

Why now
