At BuildingPoint Midwest we are constantly looking for ways to stay abreast of the technology that is at the very heart of our industry. Like consumer-facing tech, new Design-Build-Operate technology solutions are brought to market on a regular basis and updates to those solutions are made even more frequently.
Some of the very latest technology introduced by Trimble are its cloud-based Asset Management suite of solutions. In this blog we’ll introduce you to all three parts of this technology that allow you to track and manage your company’s tools, secure the job site and register and store your workforce data in the cloud.
To best introduce you to these new products it might be best to first explain cloud-based technology. Many people use the term, but don’t really have any idea of what the cloud is and how it can help them in their business.
The cloud refers to software and services that aren’t saved and stored on a local computer, instead they live on a network of servers and delivered through web browsers like Google Chrome, Firefox, Safari or Internet Explorer.
Many mobile apps on either your smartphone or tablet, are powered by cloud-based services. Common cloud-based services include Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, Dropbox and Apple’s iCloud.
Trimble’s new AllTrak™ Tool Management Solution allows contractors to locate tools in real time and see at a glance who is responsible for them. It also tracks which of your tools require service, which consumables may need replenished. You can also gain valuable insight to how your tools are being used by employees in the field.
Through cloud-based technology, AllTrak™ allows companies to manage tools and equipment right from the warehouse. In addition:
CrewSight™ software increases site security by seamlessly combining a jobsite access control system with a worker databaseCompanies also can track time and attendance, safety documentation and compliance, and store their workforce registry. CrewSight™ can create automated reports and streamlines workforce communication with broadcast text messages.
CrewSight™ also allows companies to:
Trimble’s Workforce Registry allows companies to easily register and store workforce data in the cloud. Employees will be able to search any worker’s records at any time no matter their location. Workforce Registry also allows the creation of custom data configurations and exportable reports for compliance documentation.
From technologically capable mobile devices companies can use Workforce Registry to:
If your company is considering streamlining its asset management solutions by move operations to a cloud-bases system, Trimble’s suite of solutions can’t be beat. To learn more about asset management solutions from BuildingPoint Midwest, contact a representative today!

Measuring floor flatness is an essential element of any large-scale construction project. And until recently, manually producing Floor Flatness Reports was a process that could last anywhere from a few hours to a few days.
Now, with the Trimble TX6 3D Laser Scanner and RealWorks software, high-resolution Floor Flatness Reports that meet ASTM E1155 standards can be produced in just a matter of minutes, saving valuable time.
Our TX6 scanner delivers state-of-the-art speed and unmatched precision that make the dream of fast and accurate Floor Flatness Reports a reality.
The Trimble® RealWorks point cloud modeling software enables construction professionals to register, visualize, manipulate and analyze as-built data collected from their Trimble TX6 3D laser scanners.
When it comes to mandatory Floor Flatness Reports, RealWorks delivers industry-standard ASTM E1155 reporting criteria to easily view actual flatness. RealWorks Floor Flatness Reports quickly output a common language that speeds the identification of intolerance and out of tolerance areas, highlighting them according to specific requirements.
Create Floor Flatness Reports in minutes! Contact BuildingPoint Midwest & Gulf Coast today to request a free demonstration of the Trimble TX6 3D Laser Scanner & Realworks.
