LAS VEGAS, March 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Trimble (NASDAQ:TRMB) announced today it will be previewing Trimble^® WorksOS, a new Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) operating system, at ConExpo 2020. The cloud-based system will integrate data from Trimble and third-party providers across the entire civil construction project lifecycle, including estimating, scheduling, designs and the field. The Trimble WorksOS preview will demonstrate 3D productivity and real-time progress to plan to bring next-generation, real-time visibility from the jobsite to the back office.

The announcement was made at ConExpo 2020, North America's largest trade show for construction machinery, building material machines, mining machines, construction vehicles and construction equipment. The Trimble booth is located in the Las Vegas Convention Center North Hall #N-1140.

"We understand the interdependencies of the solutions our customers require to be successful across all phases of construction," said Mark Schwartz, vice president, Trimble. "Creating a new operating system that supports the jobsite's basic functions, such as combining simple task management with jobsite productivity, can enable project managers to maximize overall project efficiency. Trimble WorksOS is our new civil construction SaaS-based operating system to deliver connected workflows across the entire construction lifecycle."

Connecting Workflows for Civil Construction – 3D Productivity and Real-Time Progress to Plan

Currently, site supervisors and project managers jump between multiple systems to keep track of daily production quantities, labor/equipment hours and equipment maintenance schedules. In spite of using all of these systems, they still do not have real-time visibility into progress on the jobsite and its impact on schedule/cost. With WorksOS, users will be able to log into a single application to view real-time visibility of cut, fill, volume and compaction data to maximize jobsite productivity.

The preview will demonstrate the scenario on a user-friendly dashboard, enabling key personnel, including site supervisors, to adjust daily work targets to ensure work is progressing to plan as expected. Site supervisors will also gain live daily volume calculations, compaction quality metrics and visibility into which machine is working, to monitor progress and determine if the project is on schedule.

Availability

Connecting workflows, Trimble WorksOS will integrate Trimble Business Center, Trimble WorksManager, Trimble Siteworks Positioning System, Trimble Earthworks Grade Control Platform and Trimble PULSE^® Fleet and Equipment Management Software to bring industry-leading solutions together to benefit all phases of the construction lifecycle.

Trimble WorksOS system is available for select users to participate in a beta program now. Users interested in participating in the beta program or for more information, visit: WorksOS.trimble.com. The beta period will run through the third quarter of 2020.
