2025 Mid-Year Update from the Executive Team
As we move into the second half of the year, we want to take a moment to recognize everything you have helped accomplish so far in 2025. Together, we are facing challenges head-on and continuing to push forward, defining what it means to have Sauer DNA. That mindset has been especially clear as we work through our Epicor launch. It has not been easy, but your commitment to learning, adjusting, and supporting each other shows what Development, Accountability, and Excellence truly look like in action. Every improvement made now is setting the stage for a more connected and capable Sauer USA.
Beyond our systems, our sights are set on growth. We are laying the groundwork for our new location in Utah with the goal of having it operating in the next few months. We have also welcomed 20 new Sauer USA team members since January who bring new energy, skills, and perspectives that will help us move even faster. These steps reflect our belief in investing in people and planning for the long term.
There is real momentum building. We recently celebrated the highest monthly After Sales revenue in Sauer USA’s history. Our Vision 2025 SMART targets are also gaining traction across the organization as we make the final push to accomplish our goals. We are seeing our core values come to life every day; from quick responses that keep customers happy, to solution focused collaboration that drives results.
There is still plenty of work to do, but we are proud of the path we are on and grateful for everything you bring to it. Keep going. Keep leading. Keep learning. Let’s finish this year stronger than ever.
-Don, Johnny, and Stuart

Dominic Fowler
What are some specific projects or initiatives you’re looking forward to working on?
I am looking forward to working on the first project that is given to me. I am excited to learn more about our products and the processes that go into completing a project.
How do you prefer to communicate with colleagues (in-person, email, instant messaging)?
I prefer to communicate in person over email and instant messaging because you can clearly convey how you want your message to come across whereas in email or instant messaging the reader may interpret the message in the wrong tone.
What are a few hobbies or interests you enjoy outside of work?
A few hobbies of mine outside of work are fishing, hunting, and working out. Depending on the time of year I like to fish for bass or trout, and when it is hunting season I hunt for ducks, geese, and deer.
Where is the most interesting place you’ve been?
The most interesting place I have been was Montana. I lived there for three years, and it was my favorite state I have lived in by far because of the hunting and fishing I was able to do there.

Meet Heather Pavelich, Purchasing Assistant
Heather Pavelich
What are you most excited about in your new role?
I’m most excited about being part of a team. In previous roles, I primarily worked independently, so it’s been refreshing and inspiring to see how each team functions and contributes to a larger shared goal. Being part of that collaborative environment has been truly rewarding.
Where is the most interesting place you’ve been?
The most interesting place I’ve visited would have to be Iceland. It felt like stepping into a storybook with it’s incredible landscapes- waterfalls, black sand beached, glaciers, volcanoes, and even caves. Experiencing 24 hours of daylight was surreal, and spotting puffins in their natural habitat was a highlight. I even tried Hakarl, which was definitely a memorable experience and one I won’t be doing again! I can’t wait to go back!
Meet Chase Rogers, Logistics Assistant
Chase Rogers
What are you most excited about in your new role?
