Trimble® announced Kirby-Smith Machinery, Inc. as the first Trimble Technology Outlet based in the United States. Kirby-Smith Machinery will now sell and support Trimble grade control technology directly to customers using Komatsu, Takeuchi and Hamm earthmoving equipment. Contractors can now purchase Trimble technology from Kirby-Smith, including the Trimble Works Subscription, which provides an easy entry-point, predictable monthly payment, upgrade flexibility, software and firmware maintenance and more.
Trimble Technology Outlets are a new and important part of Trimble's evolved civil construction distribution strategy. By adding authorized resellers representing a wide variety of manufacturers to the Trimble distribution channel, it becomes easier for users of all machine types to purchase, install and utilize Trimble technology for improved jobsite productivity and profitability.
Streamlined Access to Trimble Technology
"We are thrilled to announce Kirby-Smith Machinery as the first Trimble Technology Outlet in the United States," said Ron Bisio, senior vice president, field systems at Trimble. "Across the U.S. and around the world, contractors who have better access to field-proven technology have a competitive advantage. Our goal is that anyone who wants to equip their machines with Trimble technology can do so easily, regardless of machine type, and we look forward to working with Kirby-Smith to make this vision a reality for their customers."
"Our customers have been requesting easier access to Trimble technology for years. It's exciting to share the news that they are now able to readily equip any of the machine types we sell with Trimble solutions," said Dennis Cox, director, smart construction at Kirby-Smith. "We anticipate that our customers will be as excited about the subscription purchase option as they will about the technology itself because it makes their technology investment so flexible, scalable and easy."
Trimble's grade control systems integrate sensors, software and automation features to empower operators to work more productively. From the precise positioning of buckets, and other implements, to the optimization of equipment usage, Trimble technology helps improve accuracy and safety while reducing equipment wear-and-tear and fuel consumption.
