Steve Fox, Managing Director – Global Major Accounts at JCB, said: "We are thrilled to partner with Speedy Hire on this generator order. The scale of this deal is testament to our strong relationship and our shared commitment to innovation and sustainability.

"The Stage V generators with JCB's LiveLink Telematics connectivity will provide Speedy Hire and its customers with unparalleled control and insight, setting a new benchmark in the power generation industry."

Wendy Asquith, Dealer Principal at Gunn JCB, said: "We are incredibly proud to have partnered with Speedy Hire on this significant investment. As one of the oldest and largest JCB dealers in the world, we have enjoyed a strong relationship with Speedy Hire for over 20 years, supplying and supporting their fleet with JCB equipment. This deal represents the latest chapter in our partnership, and we are excited to continue providing them with the innovative, high-performance solutions they need to lead the industry in sustainable power generation."

The new generators, all compliant with Stage V emissions standards, are equipped with JCB’s innovative LiveLink telematics system, which enables Speedy Hire to remotely monitor and manage the assets, optimising operational performance and significantly improving service for customers. The LiveLink system provides real-time data on service scheduling, condition alerts, and fault diagnostics, while also offering customers the ability to access their own monitoring portal. This empowers customers to perform daily checks, log faults, access data, and manage equipment utilisation, providing a comprehensive self-service experience.
