CEC Smart Positioning, based in Sharonville, Ohio, is growing its footprint in the smart construction equipment sector with the addition of TH Hendershot, sales specialist, strengthening its commitment to serving contractors across Cincinnati, Dayton, northern Kentucky and throughout Ohio. The team now brings more than 100 combined years of experience to the region, delivering expert sales, service and training on the latest smart positioning technologies.
CEC Smart Positioning is a specialized division of Columbus Equipment Company, one of Ohio's leading heavy equipment dealers. The group was formed through the acquisition of JC Equipment Sales and Leasing Inc., a Cincinnati-based company long known as a premier Topcon dealer and for its focus on smart construction tools and top-notch customer service. The merger brought together JC Equipment's seasoned team with the resources and statewide support of Columbus Equipment, creating a powerhouse in positioning technology and construction equipment services.
CEC Smart Positioning continues its legacy as an authorized Topcon dealer and service center by offering solutions that help contractors improve accuracy, efficiency and productivity on the jobsite, according to the company. From GNSS and total stations to laser-based positioning systems, CEC Smart Positioning carries and supports advanced technology from industry-leading brands. Its offerings are particularly valuable in site preparation, excavation, utility work and road construction — fields where precision and speed are key to meeting project timelines and budgets.
Hendershot adds to an already knowledgeable and respected team, further enhancing the company's ability to provide personalized service. Beyond sales, CEC Smart Positioning offers hands-on training and on-site support to ensure customers are getting the most out of their technology investment. Its experts deliver equipment and work closely with operators and supervisors to integrate smart solutions into daily workflows.
As the construction industry continues to embrace digital tools and automation, CEC Smart Positioning helps contractors navigate the transition and maximize their competitive edge. With deep roots in the region, a legacy of trusted service and a focus on future-ready solutions, CEC Smart Positioning is well-positioned to support the next generation of construction success across Ohio and beyond.
