LAS VEGAS, March 7, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Trimble
(NASDAQ: TRMB) announced today that its Field Service Management
(FSM) fleet and asset portfolio supports the new Association of
Equipment Management Professionals (AEMP) 2.0/ ISO-15143-3
telematics standard for data feeds. Adopting the new standard will
allow both inbound and outbound data to be exchanged with multiple
telematics and asset tracking systems and be displayed in a
standardized format. This will enable businesses to view service
vehicles on the same system as the assets they are servicing to
improve the service workflow.
The announcement was made at ConExpo 2017, one of the world's
largest international exhibitions for the construction
industry.
The AEMP 2.0/ISO-15143-3 data feed includes data elements and
fault codes and will address seven areas of equipment information:
utilization, excessive idling, location, job availability,
inspection, electronic usage and preventative
maintenance.
"The new AEMP 2.0 / ISO-15143-3 standard offers much greater
flexibility to manage mixed fleets and we are excited to be able to
offer this function to our customers," said John Cameron, general manager of Trimble FSM
Division. "Businesses will be able to gather more OEM equipment
data than ever before and view, manage and analyze it in their
preferred systems. With this easy access to the data, intelligent
business decisions can be made and maintenance schedules can be
managed and optimized to improve customer service, save time and
reduce costs within the entire business operation."
Trimble will also use AEMP 2.0 to support two-way data exchange
between its FSM fleet and asset solutions and its
VisionLink® solution, a web-based fleet, asset and
productivity management solution for construction equipment. With
this integration, construction customers can obtain a holistic,
real-time view of their construction machinery and vehicle fleet on
the same map and in a single system. When assets are moved between
jobsites there is often an associated vehicle that is needed to
transport it there. Viewing multiple asset types in a single
application will also streamline service workflows by providing an
application for both service vehicles and the equipment that needs
service.
Trimble has also announced enhancements to its cloud-based Work
Management scheduling solution, an important element of the Trimble
PULSE™ suite of end-to-end field service management solutions.
Trimble Work Management version 4.3 will support AEMP
2.0/ISO 15143-3 inbound data feeds. This will enable equipment
dispatchers to identify where service vehicles are in relation to
the assets they are servicing, view the location and status of
technicians and provide them with the means to generate a work
order for any asset while at the jobsite. In the event of an asset
breakdown, the nearest qualified technician can be immediately
contacted and assigned. Once on site, the technician can access key
information about the asset, such as its exact location, serial
number, make, model and asset name. If further maintenance is
required, the technician can generate a work order immediately,
enabling streamlined maintenance workflows.
A live demonstration of "Improving the Service Workflow
Leveraging the AEMP Standard" will be showcased at ConExpo from
March 7-11. The demonstration will
take place at 3:00 pm PT daily at the
Trimble Software Theater booth (South Hall – S64228). For more
