MUNICH, April 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Trimble
(NASDAQ:TRMB) announced today that the purchase of a complete
Trimble® GCS900 Grade Control System will include six
months of Trimble Connected Site® services at no
additional cost if activated by June 30,
2017. The services make it even easier for contractors to
connect the machine to the office to realize significant cost
savings and productivity gains.
The announcement was made at bauma 2016, the world's leading
trade fair for construction machinery, building material machines,
mining machines, construction vehicles and construction
equipment.
Connected Site Services
Integrating grade control data communications, remote GNSS
corrections and telematics, the Trimble Connected Site optimizes
asset productivity and reduces operational costs. Contractors can
better remotely manage assets and projects from the office and
machine operators can stay up-to-date with the latest design files,
work orders, and training without ever leaving the machine. Trimble
Connected Site services include the Web-based Connected Community
and VisionLink® solutions.
Connected Community is the backbone of the Trimble Connected
Site, allowing contractors to share information in real-time using
the Internet. Using Connected Community, contractors can manage
crews, devices and sites effectively from the office, and see and
interact with Trimble machine control and Site Positioning Systems
for troubleshooting and training. Accurate information flowing
between the office and the job site gives managers more time to
make better, more informed decisions.
VisionLink integrates site productivity data, fleet and asset
management, and materials and volumes movement information.
VisionLink is pioneering the ability to present a collective view
of all machines and their contribution to overall productivity
across the organization and across sites. In addition, VisionLink
gives contractors the ability to view asset and productivity data
on mobile devices.
Availability
The Trimble GCS900 Grade Control System with six months of
Connected Site Services is now available globally through the
SITECH® dealer channel.
