DETROIT, MI — Fleet Cost & Care (FCC) announces that long-time construction executive Rick Scheck has joined the company as Senior Director of Sales and Business Development. Scheck has more than 25 years of work experience in large construction and engineering firms focusing on cultivating client and industry relationships, construction, business, due diligence, operations, proposal development, and business planning.

“Rick will be keenly involved in the future strategy and business planning of the company, both domestically and internationally,” said Jeff Curran, FCC President. “His construction background is a great asset to us as we continue to serve the crane and heavy equipment industries and climb to new heights as a technology leader.”

Previously, Scheck was part of the Executive and Management team of Scheck Industries, a $100-million national industrial construction company, and over a 20-year period the companies completed projects totaling over $2 billion in revenue. Scheck was an integral part of the vision, growth, national branding, and expansion of the companies throughout the country and continues to hold an ownership interest in the group. He has developed client, contractor, vendor, union, and other industry relationships throughout the United States.

“I am thrilled to join the Curran Family and their dynamic team at a time when automation in construction is at a critical crossroad," Scheck said.

I have seen it firsthand in my experience and am looking forward to working on the technology-side of the business."
