This episode explores how MJE is using its 450+ piece heavy equipment fleet to learn, train, and improve performance on real-world jobsites — with an emphasis on operator development, data-informed decision making, and field-tested changes that drive safety and cost savings. But it’s not just a highlight reel: Ryan opens up about what’s been tough, what we’re still figuring out, and what others in the industry can learn from our experience.
Key Messages- The Smarter by the Yard campaign isn’t about fancy tech — it’s about usable insight.
- We’ve made mistakes, found inefficiencies, and learned a lot the hard way.
- Our operator training system is practical, structured, and focused on safety first.
- We’re building tools and processes others can learn from — even if they’re starting small.
- Transparency matters — we’re still improving, and we don’t have it all figured out.
