Oshkosh Truck Corp subsidiary JLG Industries Inc has been awarded a USD78 million fixed-price and cost-plus-fixed-fee contract for the refurbishment of equipment in Iraq and Afghanistan.

The JLG military team performs refurbishment work in Balad, Iraq and Bagram, Afghanistan. Under the contract, the work is expected to last until 2012 and is for JLG's ATLAS and 6000M telehandlers, and Case M4K and MW24C loader equipment.

The contract kicks off with an initial order worth USD12.4 million for the refurbishment of equipment for the US Army Tank-automotive and Armaments Command (TACOM).

In April, Forkliftaction.com News reported JLG received a USD39.5 million order for Atlas telehandlers from the US Army.

A trip down memory lane...

It’s the year 2000. You’re in front of a boxy beige desktop waiting for the screeching ramblings of your dial-up to reach its finale. You go to Yahoo!, MSN, or maybe AOL, and start the mind-numbing process of finding your very specific needle in the digital haystack. And with web pages loading one image at a time, patience isn’t just a virtue – it’s a requirement!

As clumsy as this early iteration seems now, this technology was the great enabler that allowed Forkliftaction to connect to the industry across the globe.  

To everyone who has connected with Forkliftaction in the past 25 years, thank you for your contribution to our success! We feel deeply touched by your words of encouragement.

Words of support …

After advertising with Forkliftaction.com, we got many enquiries regarding interest to be our distributor. Mostly from Europe and USA but including a few in ASEAN. We feel that the advertisement was useful and good for market expansion.
