Automation-X moves to employee-ownership model

FORT COLLINS — Power and instrumentation automation company Automation-X Inc. is now a 100% employee-owned company.

The firm, at the end of 2022, implemented an employee stock ownership plan, or ESOP.

“Our talented employees set us apart at Auto-X,” Auto-X board chairman Dan Schultejann said in a prepared statement. “We want our employees to think and act like owners, which will directly benefit from Auto-X’s continued success.”

Empowering communities

Rocky Mountain Health Plans (RMHP), part of the UnitedHealthcare family, has pledged its commitment to uplift these communities through substantial investments in organizations addressing the distinct needs of our communities.

The ESOP model, company leaders expect, will “enable Auto-X to recruit new talent while retaining experienced and dedicated employees,” Auto-X said in a news release. 

Auto-X has been operating for 20 years and has 14 locations across Colorado, New Mexico, North Dakota, Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, West Virginia and Pennsylvania.
