SUWANEE, Ga. (Jan. 8, 2026) — DEVELON recently opened a new construction equipment training, testing and education facility called the HD Construction Equipment (HDCE) Real Operation Center (ROC) in Tucson, Arizona.

The new facility replaces the previous testing and training center. It is located adjacent to the Tucson International Airport and provides a convenient site to hold training sessions on advanced technologies, test the lineup of current and new DEVELON heavy and compact equipment and host dealer and customer events.

 

DEVELON Real Operations Center groundbreaking

 

“For the past 15 years at our former facility, we hosted thousands of construction equipment owners, operators and dealer representatives for hands-on training, product testing and special events,” said Morgan Stallings, senior director of dealer development and marketing at DEVELON. “The new facility will build upon its success and support our North American dealers. It will have acres of open operation area where visitors can come year-round to see and feel what makes DEVELON machines different from other brands.”


DEVELON broke ground on the new facility last October. While at the HDCE ROC, operators and sales teams will eventually be able to learn from experts in a classroom setting; a permanent building is planned for the site. As part of the planned building, there will also be service bays available for dealer training and maintenance purposes.

Visitors will get one-on-one time with DEVELON subject matter experts who will highlight key machine differences, describe key features and demonstrate innovations like the exclusive Transparent Bucket and around view monitor (AVM) camera system.
