OLYMPIA, WA — Bryan Beck has been named GOMACO’s Vice President of Manufacturing. The appointment was made by Grant Godbersen, GOMACO’s President. As the new Vice President of Manufacturing, Beck will oversee all manufacturing operations, the expansion of manufacturing capabilities and facilities, the setting of product delivery goals, and the support of new standards for quality.

Beck joined GOMACO in 1999 and was involved in the Cylinder, Manufacturing Engineering, and Purchasing Departments of plant production. He was named Plant Production Manager in 2007. Beck joined the GOMACO sales team in 2012 as the Southwest United States District Manager and was responsible for the sales of GOMACO equipment and maintaining the distributor network for eastern Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas, and the western half of Missouri.

“Bryan is able to bring unique insight into our manufacturing plants because of his years of experience first working in the various manufacturing departments and then from his years of service as a GOMACO District Manager,” Grant said. “He can personally relate to both our own GOMACO personnel and the end user.”

The new appointment created the opportunity to restructure the sales territories. Joining the Sales Department will be Ross Biely. Parker Rasmussen will be in a new hybrid role working in Sales and the 3D Machine Control Department. They will be responsible for the sales and support of GOMACO’s full line of concrete construction equipment and managing the distributor network within their new territories. The sales appointments were made by Kent Godbersen, GOMACO’s Vice President of Worldwide Sales and Marketing.

Biely has been named District Sales Manager for the Western United States. His territory will include Washington, Oregon, California, Idaho, Utah, Nevada, Arizona, Alaska, and Hawaii. Biely joined GOMACO’s 3D Machine Control Department in July 2012, after graduating from the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee with a civil engineering degree.

Rasmussen will take on a new hybrid role for GOMACO as both a District Sales Manager for the Mountain states, including Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana, and continuing as a 3D Machine Control Engineer. Rasmussen joined GOMACO’s 3D Control Department in May 2020 after graduating from the University of Iowa with a Civil Engineering degree.

“Ross ... and Parker have all traveled extensively across the United States setting up, training, and troubleshooting 3D paving systems on GOMACO’s full line of concrete paving equipment,” Kent said. “They have worked extensively with all levels of our customer base including company owners, engineers, and field personnel. With their 3D controls expertise, hands-on GOMACO machine knowledge, and customer relation skills, they will be a great asset to our customers within their territories long into the future.”
