“The partnership of Bid-Well and Hydra Platforms creates an incredible value chain for the company and industry,” said Rob Drew, site director for Bid-Well.

“Being paired with Bid-Well and with the power and recognition of Terex behind us, we’re looking to serve many more customers in the global market,” said Garth McGillewie Junior, director of Hydra Platforms.
