Pioneer Solutions possesses dump truck product knowledge expertise. Product knowledge is the competitor, specification, performance, design, engineering, supplier, manufacturing, testing, validation, and industry knowledge that is necessary to develop a piece of equipment that reliably performs in its application and meets customer expectations. Product knowledge is gained through years of experience, lessons learned over time, trial and error, resolving failures, testing, validation, and research/development. Product knowledge is what allows an OEM to develop and release a new product in less time, and with less commercial risk.

Dump Truck Experts
Pioneer Solutions is the only independent company in the world that possesses comprehensive dump truck product knowledge. The company’s product knowledge was gained by functioning as the design and engineering department for Euclid Heavy Equipment (a long-standing global dump truck OEM) for more than 25 years. With Hitachi Construction Machinery’s acquisition of Euclid Heavy Equipment in 2004, and the subsequent shutdown of most USA based operations, the former Euclid Heavy Equipment design and engineering department stayed together, separated from the OEM, and formed Pioneer Solutions, LLC.
Pioneer Solutions is an excellent partner for any existing or new OEM in the off-highway dump truck industry.
