SUNNYVALE, Calif., July 15, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Trimble
(NASDAQ: TRMB) announced today that BuildingPoint® distribution
partners have been established in Australia, New
Zealand and the U.S. These latest additions are part of the
growing BuildingPoint network that provides focused sales and
services with a portfolio of software and hardware solutions for
the Design-Build-Operate (DBO) lifecycle of buildings.
BuildingPoint distribution partners represent Trimble Buildings'
solutions that allow users to create and transfer constructible
models throughout the DBO lifecycle—from concept and design to the
field and back to the office again. The solutions utilize sensors,
3D positioning, data, Building Information Modeling (BIM),
communications and analytics. The emergence of these technologies,
along with the ability to integrate them within a comprehensive
information architecture, provides an unprecedented capability to
improve productivity, schedule adherence and cost discipline.
Trimble's expanded information architecture enables these
improvements by significantly improving project transparency and
collaboration, which leads to much tighter integration of the
elements of building design, building construction and
post-completion building operation.
BuildingPoint will provide a primary vehicle for bringing
Trimble's DBO solutions to the market. Experienced construction
professionals in each regional BuildingPoint will support users in
achieving the optimal construction technology solution for each
project. This support will consist of a combination of hardware and
software, consulting, virtual design and construction services,
personalized training and technical support.
Trimble is establishing a network of BuildingPoint distribution
partners in the Americas, Europe
and Asia/Pacific regions. For more
