Trimble AppXchange

By audience

IT & Systems Administration

• Connect one system to the platform once instead of building and maintaining a point-to-point integration per ERP
• Install and run the connector agent on the server hosting an on-premises ERP, and hold the customer workspace where flows are configured
• Watch data as it moves, and get failures reported and retried rather than discovered at month end
• Read the published OpenAPI document per connector to see exactly which records and actions are exposed before committing to a build

Accounting & Finance

• Keep jobs, cost codes, vendors and employees flowing out of the ERP into the field tools that code against them
• Land approved expense reports, subcontractor pay applications and material invoices back in the ERP as AP invoices without re-keying
• Take field time cards into payroll as a reviewable batch rather than a spreadsheet
• Seven of the nineteen connectors are ERPs, and they carry 63% of the platform's published object depth

General Contracting

• Buy App Xchange for Contractors to connect the tools already in the stack, rather than waiting for each vendor to build an integration
• Run connected RFI and submittal workflows with a counterparty who stays in their own system of record
• Move purchase orders and subcontracts from the project-management tool into accounting as commitments

Specialty Contracting

• Connect service-management, procurement and materials platforms to the ERP — the shipped lane includes work orders, POs, invoices and project KPIs
• Sync equipment, fleet and utilisation records so equipment cost lands against the right job
• Push certificates of insurance and compliance status against the ERP's vendor list

Project Manager

• Keep projects, phases and budgets aligned between the project-management tool and the accounting system of record
• Answer an RFI or a submittal once, in whichever system you work in, on the connected workflows
• Stop chasing the version of a cost forecast that has the field's actuals in it

By phase

Pre-Construction

• Move estimates, sub quotes and buyout data between estimating tools and the ERP before the job is set up
• Land purchase orders and material commitments from procurement platforms into accounting

Construction

• The platform's centre of gravity — time cards, job costs, change orders, RFIs, submittals and invoices moving between the field, the project-management tool and the ERP
• Reference data flows out of the ERP continuously so field entry is coded against real accounting records
• Most of the 41 delivered integrations on this platform run in this phase

Closeout & Operations

• Service management, asset and work-order platforms connect to the ERP for the operations phase
• Trimble Unity Maintain and the service-contractor connectors carry inspection, work-order and asset records after handover
