The Cat® Global Operator Challenge is Back!
We’re looking for the best operators of Cat construction machines from around the world. Are you one of them? Do you know someone who is? The Caterpillar Global Operator Challenge is where the best of the best showoff their skills — and one will take home the title “world champion.”
During each portion of the Global Operator Challenge, participants execute a variety of tasks, such as digging a trench, loading a precise amount of dirt, and hauling or maneuvering the equipment through a variety of obstacles. Scoring is based on the operator’s skills, efficiency, as well as his or her competence in using integrated technology to enhance the machine’s performance.
Heavy equipment machine operators test their skills against those of fellow operators.
In each stage of the competition, operators are challenged to test their agility, resilience and versatility, as well as their competence in using integrated technology to enhance machine performance such as Cat Production Measurement and Cat GRADE systems.
Participants will compete in four challenges:
One (1) operator with the best overall score from all Quinn events combined will advance to the Caterpillar-sponsored regional events in North Carolina on October 19, 2022.
Operators with the best overall score at the Caterpillar-sponsored regional event in North Carolina will advance to the Global Operator Challenge Final event at ConExpo-Con/Agg March 14 – 18, 2023 in Las Vegas.
