Trimble Construction Cloud takes advantage of Microsoft Azure services including Logic Apps, Azure DevOps, and Azure Kubernetes Service. The
platform links project teams, data, processes and multiple stakeholders—such as general contractors, subcontractors, designers, engineers and
owners—across all phases of construction projects. Connecting people, processes and workflows enables projects to be completed better, faster,
safer, cheaper, and greener. By providing seamless collaboration from the field to the back office, Trimble Construction Cloud provides a trusted
environment where transparency and actionable data are the new norm. It is also the sole construction industry cloud for Microsoft customers.
"Trimble Construction Cloud enables customers to accelerate and deliver improved business outcomes with data from native Trimble and ecosystem
of services," said Jennifer Lin, senior vice president and chief platform officer for Trimble. "It empowers project teams to design, construct, operate,
collaborate and learn with live data sharing. This unique approach leverages connected workflows, precise spatial data and constructible models to
modernize the entire ecosystem and accelerate customer success. We're excited to help customers and partners achieve more productively and
sustainability than before."
Trimble Construction Cloud will launch as the cloud solution powering Trimble Construction One, a purpose-built connected construction management
offering that includes rich field data, estimating, detailing, project management, finance and human capital management solutions. Non-Trimble
Construction One users can subscribe to Trimble Construction Cloud independently as a separate service.
Trimble Construction Cloud includes four main functions designed to automate the flow of data and decision-making for more efficient and predictable
business outcomes:
- Common Data Environment: Task-specific point solutions have created the fragmentation of data and losses in handoffs,
as construction is increasingly a mixed fleet world with different equipment, technology, software and information—each of
which handle different parts of the construction lifecycle. Trimble Construction Cloud features one centralized, common
data environment that connects the office with site operations tools, enabling Trimble and non-Trimble solutions to
automatically integrate into one usable data set. This provides enhanced data visibility and unites stakeholders across jobs,
teams and departments with the right information at the right time to make the right decisions.
- Configured and Custom Workflows: Despite the number of repetitive tasks inherent to construction, most contractors still
run their businesses manually, which is time-consuming and error prone. Trimble Construction Cloud solves this challenge
with configured and customizable workflows that help project teams automate different aspects of their business with
commonly used workflows, as well as by building and deploying their own around critical job roles and specific business
objectives. The cloud's three configured workflows include a model-to-procurement built for Mechanical, Engineering and
Plumbing (MEP); a model-to-fabrication for structures; and a civil bid-to-build for site management.
- Live Data/Model Sharing: Collaborating across projects in real-time has always been difficult for project teams. Trimble
Construction Cloud provides customers with the ability to subscribe to unique capabilities across Trimble and non-Trimble
solutions such as Microsoft Teams that serve to enhance and facilitate collaboration across project teams. The Live
Sharing capability allows for real-time model collaboration for both Trimble and non-Trimble solutions. With Live Sharing,
multiple users can be in several Trimble solutions—such as Quadri, Trimble Connect and Tekla—and view model changes
as they happen. Users with non-Trimble solutions can also collaborate in the same modeling process as well.
- Trimble Developer Portal: Instead of reaching out to various organizations within a business to gain access to a report or
specific type of data, Trimble Construction Cloud centralizes the discovery, learning, provisioning, support and successful
application of APIs through the Trimble Developer Portal. An easily accessible, centralized portal is designed to facilitate
faster onboarding and integration leading to more productive developer experiences.
"Cloud-based solutions are designed to take industries to the next level to compete in today's marketplace," said Casey McGee, vice president of
Global ISV Sales, Microsoft. "Trimble Construction Cloud connects disparate systems and provides new workflows, so stakeholders have the visibility
and fluidity they need to further enhance digital transformation."
