STAMFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- United Rentals, Inc. (NYSE: URI), the world’s largest equipment rental company, today outlined steps construction, industrial and manufacturing companies can take to improve worksite performance by connecting people and equipment through data. The approach provides innovative, yet practical, ways companies can link nearly every part of a worksite - from the perimeter gate to the back office - to increase safety, productivity and sustainability.

The white paper, Worksite Performance Solutions™, explores strategies to create connected worksites that deliver maximum performance.

“At United Rentals, our aspiration is to connect the worksite.” said Tony Leopold, Senior Vice President, Chief Technology & Strategy Officer, United Rentals. “By jointly innovating with our customers, we are developing new ways to improve worksite safety, productivity, and sustainability.”
