“As the capability of our construction products continues to expand, software becomes a more significant piece of the overall solution,” said Murray Lodge, vice president of construction sales. “Mark’s knowledge of how a project is designed and staked in the field along with his relationships in the industries we serve, provide the ideal experience needed for this new position.”

Larranaga will help Topcon dealers integrate new software and technologies into their daily business both from a sales and education perspective. He will also be a liaison for the product management team as the company looks for new opportunities to grow the business.
