Trimble to showcase innovation and connectivity at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026

Written By Sarah Poirier

Trimble is heading to CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026 with a message contractors have been asking for: stop making us jump between five systems just to finish one job. At this year’s show, Trimble will demonstrate a connected lineup of tools that covers the full construction workflow, from scanning and estimating through machine control, fabrication, project management, and job costing. 

Trimble will be set up in the West Hall at booth W40420, with more than 200 company experts available to walk contractors through what’s new and what actually connects in the field. The company is also highlighting AI-enabled capabilities across its portfolio, along with updates to make Trimble technology easier to adopt and scale.

What Trimble is bringing to the show floor

Trimble’s CONEXPO presence is built around one simple idea: jobs run better when the office, field, and shop share the same information.

On the pre-construction side, Trimble is showing how contractors can capture jobsite conditions using the Trimble X9 static scanner and the Trimble MX60 mobile scanner. That scan data feeds into Trimble Business Center, where it can be turned into surfaces, quantities, and models used for takeoffs and earthwork estimating.

This is one of the most practical use cases Trimble is pushing. Scan an existing site, clean up the data, and reduce the number of surprises that show up after crews and machines are already mobilized. Trimble is also highlighting AI features in Business Center, including tools that can classify pavement defects for repair designs. That’s the kind of AI that contractors tend to appreciate, because it saves time on work that usually gets done manually.

Trimble is also showing SketchUp as a tool for turning early concepts into buildable plans and 3D models. On the structural side, Tekla Structures is the backbone of constructible models that support engineering, detailing, and fabrication planning.

How Trimble is connecting field work, the shop, and the back office

Trimble’s lineup at CONEXPO is organized around connected workflows, rather than standalone tools. Here’s how its products link estimating, fabrication, field operations, organization, project management, and financial systems into a single continuous construction process. 

  • Estimating: Trimble is showcasing Accubid, AutoBid, and B2W Estimate for commercial and MEP takeoff, and heavy civil estimating. The focus is on connecting estimating directly to project execution, financial tracking, and operations—eliminating redundant data entry.
  • Fabrication: Trimble will showcase Tekla PowerFab, along with FabShop and Connect2Fab—tools that make a difference in steel and MEP fabrication workflows, especially for contractors investing in prefab and looking to reduce field labor, cut waste, and eliminate the wrong item from showing up at the wrong time.
  • Field operations: Trimble is demoing Trimble Earthworks for 3D machine control, and Trimble Siteworks for machine guidance, specifically for use with excavators and loaders. They’re also featuring Trimble Groundworks, which supports piling and drilling workflows. For layout and verification, Trimble offers Trimble SiteVision, an augmented-reality program that overlays 3D models onto the real-world jobsite.
  • Tool tracking/organization: Trimble also offers tools to organize equipment and labor, including B2W Schedule, B2W Track, and B2W Maintain. These systems handle dispatching, performance tracking, and equipment maintenance planning.
  • Project management: Trimble is highlighting Trimble Connect as the cloud platform for sharing project information. It’s also showcasing ProjectSight, which is built to manage drawings and documents, track RFIs and submittals, and log punch lists and field issues. ProjectSight 360 Capture uses 360-degree imagery to track progress-to-plan and create a visual record of how a jobsite changes over time. 
  • Financial: Trimble is showcasing Vista and Spectrum ERP systems, along with Trimble Financials, a simplified job-costing and financial-management option for smaller contractors. It also highlights Trimble Pay for payment, compliance, and lien waiver workflows, and Trimble Materials for purchasing, inventory, and accounts payable. 

Trimble will also host two educational sessions at the show, including one focused on mixed-fleet integration and ISO data-sharing standards, and another on large-scale earthwork at a new EV plant site in South Carolina.

Trimble’s big CONEXPO pitch is connectivity. The tools are only part of it. The bigger story is whether contractors can actually connect data from estimating, scanning, field operations, and financials without burning time on manual cleanup.
