J Squared Strategic Solutions: Our Origin Story

J Squared Strategic Solutions was born from a simple but powerful idea: Contractors need more than just rentals—they need relationships. Founded by Jeff “J2” Johnson, the brand was created to serve as a personal bridge between United Rentals’ world-class offerings and the hardworking contractors building our critical infrastructure.
 
After years of working in the field and seeing how siloed services and sales often failed customers, J2 made it his mission to deliver a smarter, more connected experience. J Squared is not a replacement for United Rentals—it is a personal brand that brings those solutions closer to the people who need them most.
