Trimble announced the launch of Trimble Materials, an end-to-end purchasing, inventory and accounts payable software solution.

It is designed to help contractors gain control over material costs with enhanced budget and inventory tracking. Through its office and mobile applications, the solution connects the office, field teams, warehouse teams and suppliers to centralize and streamline the contractor's entire purchasing and materials management process.

"Managing numerous material orders from various suppliers amidst volatile pricing and availability presents significant challenges in the construction sector," said Lawrence Smith, vice president and general manager of construction management solutions of Trimble. "Trimble Materials offers a cohesive solution by connecting material ordering, inventory and accounting, which is especially valuable in the face of potential changes in tariff policy. This digital streamlining empowers contractors to mitigate risks, control costs and gain a competitive edge in an evolving economic landscape."

Connected Construction Ecosystem

Trimble Materials integrates with Trimble ERP solutions, including Viewpoint Spectrum and Viewpoint Vista to provide connectivity for contractors to develop more efficient estimating, operations and accounting management ecosystems. Trimble Materials complements Trimble's existing construction supply chain workflows that automate the exchange of material pricing between suppliers and contractors and facilitate ordering from preferred suppliers.

With Trimble Materials, field users can search for and request materials, view inventory, record received materials and communicate with the office. Office users, such as project managers and purchasing teams, can more efficiently control, approve and process orders, view inventory, generate RFQs, compare quotes and reconcile invoices. A comprehensive view of these purchasing activities and spend analysis is created in one place, according to Trimble.

Availability

Trimble Materials will be showcased at the CFMA National Conference. It will be available as part of the Trimble Construction One software suite for North American contractors.
