The tool links master schedules with look-aheads, RFIs, weather data and daily reports.
Trimble has introduced Trimble Connect Scheduling, an integrated, AI-assisted tool for viewing and updating construction schedules in real time. The capability, which was announced at the Trimble Dimensions User Conference, is designed to help teams plan work, identify scheduling risks and respond to changes as projects progress.
Construction schedules often change because of crew availability, late deliveries, change orders, equipment issues, weather and other disruptions. Many office and field teams still use separate tools such as spreadsheets, whiteboards, email and text messages to manage scheduling, which can create version mismatches and make it harder to identify risks early.
Trimble Connect Scheduling connects the master schedule to live project data, including look-aheads, RFIs, weather forecasts, daily reports and submittals. Using agentic AI, the system monitors changing conditions, assesses risk and suggests schedule adjustments for review before they are applied.
Proactive scheduling with agentic AI
Built on the Trimble Connect platform, Trimble Connect Scheduling uses an agentic planning engine that can review schedule-related information from multiple sources in real time, including Trimble Connect common data environment and Trimble Connect Project Management data.
The planning engine can also compare current information with historical operational data and patterns to help identify schedule risks and suggest possible responses.
Key capabilities include:
- Continuous risk calculation: Reviews data from across the Trimble Connect platform, including BCF topics, RFIs and weather data, to assess schedule risk.
- Delay prevention: Identifies potential schedule conflicts, such as pending RFIs or weather impacts, and suggests adjustments such as float use or activity resequencing.
- Field and master schedule alignment: Links field look-ahead tasks with the master Gantt chart so jobsite work and project-level tracking stay aligned.
- Open integration or new schedule creation: Lets contractors build and revise schedules in Trimble Connect Scheduling or import schedules from Primavera P6, MS Project and other tools while preserving logic and baselines.
- Field and office collaboration: Supports scheduling updates and review by field leaders, project managers, schedulers, estimators and executives in a shared environment.
- Domain-specific model: Uses a model trained on Trimble construction project data to provide context-specific outputs.
Jobsite validation
Trimble Connect Scheduling was developed with contractor input. Over the past several months, contractors used the system to support schedule organization and communication.
Availability
Trimble Connect Scheduling is available in North America for general contractors and subcontractors across construction sectors.
