WESTMINSTER, Colo., April 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Trimble^® (Nasdaq: TRMB) today announced a new integration between its B2W Track and Trimble Siteworks software systems to automate and enhance progress quantity tracking for earthwork and civil contractors. This unique field-to-office connection allows contractors to compare actual material production quantities achieved to planned quantities more easily and accurately. Continuous assessment of field progress can be critical for civil contractors, enabling them to make timely operational adjustments to protect profitability and to bill for accurate payments as work increments are completed.

Trimble Siteworks software produces precise 3D data sets assessing production quantities achieved, which can now be requested from and transferred to the B2W Track performance tracking application.

"Civil contractors must continuously evaluate how well projects are progressing against budgets, timelines and productivity goals," said John Sheedy, director of product management at Trimble. "Relying on phone calls, forms, emails and other disconnected communications tools to report on production quantities limits timeliness and accuracy of that reporting. This new software integration brings automation to the process to increase efficiency, eliminate errors and provide an auditable progress trail for billable milestones."

The new Trimble progress-to-plan reporting workflow allows project managers to create requests for quantity measurements — such as the amount of material added, moved or removed at a site — within the B2W Track performance tracking application. Those requests are relayed automatically to personnel in the field who use Siteworks software to fulfill the request at survey-grade accuracy and send the data back to B2W Track via Wi-Fi or cellular connections. B2W Track users can then review and validate the data and reconcile it with information from other sources such as field logs. Production quantity data can also be transferred from B2W Track to the Trimble Viewpoint^® Vista™, Viewpoint Spectrum™ accounting systems, or to third-party construction accounting systems.

Integrating Construction Solutions for a Connected Jobsite
Trimble Siteworks software provides construction surveying, machine guidance and site management capabilities. For production quantity tracking, devices enabled with Siteworks software technology precisely measure distances, angles and elevations on job sites and process the resulting 3D data sets to assess production quantities in terms of linear distances, areas and volumes.

B2W Track is a comprehensive Trimble performance tracking application for civil construction. Through customized electronic daily logs and field-centric reporting, the software streamlines collection and analysis of data on productivity, labor, materials and equipment utilization.

"This new integration advances the Trimble Construction One vision of connected workflows and data," said Steve DiBenedetto, product manager at Trimble. "The intuitive process removes friction, delays and risk for errors and makes essential progress-to-plan data available with the push of a few buttons. By building on and linking existing B2W Track and Siteworks software capabilities, we've made it easy for new and existing users to automate this important reporting process at no additional cost."

Availability
The integration between Trimble Siteworks software and B2W Track is available now in North America at no additional cost to contractors that have licenses for both software systems.
