Equipment operators, are you up to the challenge?

Caterpillar® and WesTrac are on a quest to find the world’s best equipment operator at this year’s Cat Global Operator Challenge.

Since the Challenge was launched in 2019, more than 10,000 competitors from 30 countries have participated, and this year there is every expectation that it will be the largest event of its kind that the world has ever seen.

As one of the world’s leading Cat® dealers, WesTrac are running knockout heats and finals in WA and NSW/ACT. The winners from each state, who will be selected in August and September, will then move on to the Asia Pacific final in Japan this October. From there the ultimate top performers will compete at the world final at CONEXPOCON/AGG 2023 in Las Vegas, USA.

The event involves operators completing various challenges using a range of Cat construction machines to demonstrate safety, speed, agility and accuracy.

WesTrac NSW General Manager Construction Industries Alister Cant said the competition is a one-of-a-kind event, continuing the WesTrac tradition of celebrating the people behind the equipment and enabling operators to showcase their exceptional skills in fun and dynamic ways.

“The Cat Global Operator Challenge will be demanding for even the most experienced operators. They will need to show their mastery of both the machine and the technology to get a chance to compete in Japan,” Alister said.
