Trimble has acquired B2W Software, a provider of estimating and operations solutions. Elwyn McLachlan, VP of Trimble’s Civil Solutions Division said, “With the acquisition of B2W, Trimble will be able to provide an unparalleled end-to-end digital experience—connecting the digital to the physical—for heavy civil and infrastructure contractors.”
The addition of B2W’s suite of pre-construction and operations capabilities will expand Trimble’s already extensive civil infrastructure portfolio and Trimble Construction One, a purpose-built connected construction management platform.
B2W’s integrated suite of applications includes estimating, scheduling, field tracking, equipment maintenance, data capture, and business intelligence. By combining these capabilities with Trimble’s rich field data, project management, finance, and human capital management solutions, civil contractors will be able to bridge the gap between office and field in new ways, promoting transparency, efficiency, and ultimately profitability.
“B2W has helped thousands of heavy civil contractors increase their bid accuracy and operational efficiency,” said Paul McKeon, B2W Founder, and CEO. “And now with Trimble, we can realize the next chapter of our story. By linking the planned with the executed, we will provide civil contractors with a truly connected construction experience, unlocking valuable new insights for our customers across their entire operation.”
