Trimble has announced an easy-to-install configuration of the Trimble Earthworks grade control platform and Trimble Roadworks paving control platform for soil and asphalt compaction in India. Offered as a Trimble Works subscription, the system provides the full benefits of Trimble compaction control with fewer individual components, enabling contractors to begin work faster on highway infrastructure projects. The subscription combines system hardware with on-machine and cloud-based digital site management software under a single commercial offering.The compaction control system is available in a 3D configuration designed to help operators of all skill levels improve the speed, accuracy and consistency of soil and asphalt compaction. The portable configuration allows the technology to be moved easily across compaction machines, making it suitable for rented fleets and subcontracting arrangements. Compaction production data can be viewed, managed and converted to reports for project stakeholders including inspectors and relevant government agencies.“Trimble is supporting the widespread investment in India’s infrastructure growth,” said Jeff Drake, Director, Civil Construction Emerging Market Solutions, Trimble. “This new, easy-to-use configuration is a win for contractors, project owners and commerce in India. The technology allows even inexperienced machine operators to work faster and with greater accuracy and it enables project owners to confirm the job was done correctly, both of which mean better and longer-lasting roads to help move people and goods across the country.”“The solution is available at a lower cost of entry to enable greater adoption by Indian contractors,” said Rajan Aiyer, Vice President and Managing Director – India, Trimble. “The Government of India is in the midst of building the country’s national highway infrastructure. We look forward to working with them and with construction contractors across the country to provide technology solutions that help those contractors work with much greater efficiency, higher quality and safety.”Available through a Trimble Works subscription plan, the offering includes Trimble WorksManager software for remote model transfer and Trimble WorksOS software for real-time progress-to-plan reporting. The configuration is now available to contractors in India through SPRY Technocon and SITECH India Northeast.
