Enhanced maintenance solutions

From preventative maintenance to roadside assistance, invoice scanning to asset orchestration, we’ve revamped our maintenance solutions to cover every stage of your fleet’s operations.

Trimble TMT Road Call AI

Turn every breakdown call into an open case, in any language

Road Call AI answers inbound breakdown calls with multilingual agentic AI, captures asset and location detail, and opens the case in TMT Fleet Maintenance without anyone typing. The new Interactive Stakeholder Portal extends each case over text message and email, so drivers, communication-enrolled customers, dispatch teams and vendors can review live case details and join group messages in a single thread. A repair order can also be created straight from the case, so the handoff to the shop happens while the truck is still on the shoulder.

  • Answer breakdown calls with multilingual agentic AI that opens the case automatically.
  • Keep drivers, customers, dispatch and vendors in one live thread over SMS and email.
  • Create a repair order directly from the case with no re-entry.
Learn more

AI Invoice Scanning

Clear a stack of repair and parts invoices in a single pass

AI Invoice Scanning reads outside repair invoices and parts purchase order invoices and posts them into TMT Fleet Maintenance with the source document stored against the record. Batch upload and bulk review process whole stacks at once with real-time status notifications, and line data stays editable before anything posts. Direct integrations with Fleet Repair Solutions and TreviPay remove the upload step for those vendors entirely.

  • Process repair and parts invoices together, in batches, with real-time status.
  • Derive VMRS coding automatically with AI decoding V2 and improved section grouping.
  • Receive invoices directly from Fleet Repair Solutions and TreviPay without a file transfer.
Learn more

Motorpool

Run your shared fleet without a spreadsheet or an email chain

This new add-on brings shared fleet operations into TMT Fleet Maintenance natively: reservations, approval routing and dispatcher-controlled check out and check in. Availability is driven by live open repair orders and PM status, so a unit that is due for service or sitting in the shop never gets booked. Accessory and incident tracking records what left with the vehicle and what came back, closing the gap between the motorpool desk and the shop floor.

  • Book, approve and dispatch shared vehicles inside TMT.
  • Show only genuinely available units, driven by open repair orders and PM status.
  • Track accessories and incidents against every reservation.
Learn more

Report Studio

Design and schedule your own reports without queueing work with IT

Report Studio is a browser-based add-on for TMT Fleet Maintenance. This native report designer is equipped with a dataset builder, scheduling, threshold alerts, six export formats and governed share links. Maintenance teams build and distribute what they need in house instead of raising a request and waiting in a queue.

  • Build and schedule reports in the browser, with threshold alerts and six export formats.
  • Import existing RDL reports from SSRS as a starting point.
learn more

Unit Replacement Analysis

Know which assets to keep, which to review and which to sell

Unit Replacement Analysis, an add-on for TMT Fleet Maintenance, scores every active asset from 0 to 100 on age, accumulated cost and shop visits, then classifies it as Keep, Review or Sell. Each score drills down to VMRS system level alongside depreciated value and cost per mile, so the recommendation is auditable rather than a black box. Replacement and disposal decisions come off spreadsheets and gut feel and onto the maintenance history already in TMT Fleet Maintenance.

  • Score every active asset 0 to 100 on age, cost and shop visits.
  • Drill into any score at VMRS system level, with depreciated value and cost per mile.
  • Included at no additional cost.
learn more

Yard Check

Catch a past-due asset the moment it enters the yard

Yard Check, an add-on for TMT Fleet Maintenance, maps your yards as geofences over high-fidelity base maps and raises a past due alert as soon as an asset crosses the boundary. Preventative maintenance and inspection status travels with the unit, so a truck that is due for service is flagged while it’s still on site rather than after it has pulled back out. Technicians stop walking rows to find a unit before they can work on it.

  • Define yards as geofences on high-fidelity maps.
  • Alert on past due preventative maintenance and inspections at the moment of arrival.
  • See where assets sit on a live yard map instead of walking the rows.

Our shipper-focused solutions have been upgraded

Further streamline spot procurement, yard execution, supplier collaboration and transport planning across your network.

Trimble Supplier Collaboration

Connecting order changes to execution

Supplier Collaboration turns static purchase orders into “living purchase orders” to bridge the communication gap between buyers and suppliers. By utilizing GS1 EDI standards and native connections to transport execution systems, order changes automatically adjust dock and yard schedules. This eliminates endless email threads and reduces unexpected dock arrivals.

  • Transform static purchase orders into dynamic, real-time execution drivers.
  • Replace expensive point-to-point EDI with standardized buyer–supplier communication.
  • Reduce manual supplier follow-ups by up to 90% and unexpected arrivals by ~30%.

Trimble Advanced Trailer Orchestration

Synchronize your dock and yard with one-click orchestration

Advanced Trailer Orchestration digitizes warehouse yards using a real-time digital twin and AI-driven shunter task prioritization. The platform coordinates trailer movements, enforces carrier pool compliance and maintains an immutable visit timeline for detention defense. Both facility operators and carriers gain shared visibility to boost dock throughput and reduce detention costs.

  • Create a visual Yard Digital Twin with live trailer and health tracking.
  • Prioritize shunter work queues automatically to eliminate trailer hunting.
  • Cut detention exposure by 5% to 10% through enhanced dwell-time logic.

Natively integrated with Trimble Arc Agent, it delivers rapid time-to-value with low implementation overhead.

  • Group deliveries into optimized, sequenced transports with minimal setup.
  • Balance multiple constraints including capacity, time windows and costs.
  • Take advantage of agentic AI-driven planning workflows and insights.

Autonomous Transport Execution

AI-powered workflow automation for Trimble Transport Assignment

Autonomous Transport Execution brings system-initiated, AI-driven workflows to daily logistics processes. The system autonomously gathers missing data, handles delays, manages cancellations and validates surcharges while operating within user-configured boundaries. This keeps your transports moving faster without losing operational control or human oversight.

  • Automate routine follow-ups, missing milestone tracking and carrier communications.
  • Resolve time-sensitive delays and cancellations with configurable governance controls.
  • Reduce reliance on custom projects through self-configurable exception flows.
