Our Story
ARMOR™ asset management started in the year 2000 when Bruce Bushert’s company USA-CLEAN™ pivoted from cleaning retail stores to fixing floor machines. Bruce dreamt of becoming the biggest floor machine repair company in America and knew he needed to manage information and logistics to do it. ARMOR™ was invented to manage these assets with an asset central database. ARMOR™ Devices were invented in 2011 to track machine run time and dubbed the IoT launch before IoT was a mainstream topic.
Our Vision
The future of asset management will not be Human Vs. Machine; it will be humans empowered by Machines. Our vision is to be central in the IoT revolution that will be as disruptively transformative as the internet itself was. We believe we can help make everyone’s lives more empowered.

Invention of ARMOR
On April 27th, 2011 ARMOR (or its predecessor, BattSaver) was invented in the parking lot of NSS Manufacturing in Toledo, OH. Bruce Bushert had a few minutes in the parking lot before making a sales call to NSS’s President. Bruce said, “we are going to solve the battery watering issue right now. With a little thought, thinking of the Low Oil alarm/light/shut down systems Bruce drove to find a simple way to alert users of maintenance Intervals. The key, invented at this point, was the “Amp Clamp” idea To measure run time which would let a user know when it was 100hrs use and time for service
Bruce sold USA-CLEAN, Inc to Jon Don in December 31, 2021 and spun out ARMOR Technologies to allow him to obsess upon his technology passion.
