Oliver, Director of Customer Services and Global Accounts at Surface Mining & Technology, leads the team of subject-matter experts deployed as needed around the world to address customer needs, both for commercial and site support. This team plays a critical role in assisting dealers and product groups on strategic deal management, total cost of ownership reviews and performing site-needs consultation. Using extensive data analytics, as well as continuous improvement tools and technology, this division creates customer solutions by driving site performance metrics and total cost of ownership gains. Global Accounts for surface and underground mining customers and the commercial framework for regional accounts will be managed through this Tucson-based organization to ensure consistency and focus for Caterpillar’s largest customers around the world.
The 2017 CCIM Market Forecast will also present thoughts, insights and analyses from active commercial real estate brokers, lenders and appraisers specializing in the office, retail, multi-family, land, industrial and financing sectors. In one afternoon, commercial real estate professionals, industry leaders and analysts from all aspects of the market converge to offer a recap of the past year, as well as insider predictions for Tucson’s 2017 market.
