ATLANTA, April 2, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — Penton’s EquipmentWatch, the world’s leader in heavy equipment data, intelligence and insights, has announced the launch of the Tier 4 Benchmark Report. Created in partnership with the Association of Equipment Management Professionals (AEMP), the first-of-its-kind report analyzes responses from over 300 major equipment and rental companies to measure the true impact of the Tier 4 Final transition on the heavy equipment industry.

“With phase-in now in its final year, we’ve been hearing from the industry that the true adoption and impact of Tier 4 is unclear,” explained Garrett Schemmel, Managing Director for EquipmentWatch. “Through our survey, we have identified key trends around the rate of Tier 4 adoption within fleets, the rate of expected future investments, rental rate increases, and total cost of ownership, and changing costs of financing and insuring Tier 4 equipment.”

EquipmentWatch and AEMP have made this report available for free download at www.Tier4Report.com and http://www.equipmentintel.com/2015-tier-4-benchmark-report/.
