CenterStone CAFM

Trimble's CenterStone helps organizations plan, manage and operate large portfolios of buildings and sites from one web-based system. It was designed to cover the whole cycle of workplace building processes rather than being a set of separate tools.

The processes it covers

The product handles space, facilities, assets, leases, work orders, operations and reporting. In practice that means a property or facilities team can record how rooms and floors are used, keep track of buildings and equipment, manage lease records, issue and follow maintenance work, and report on all of it from the same data.

Where CenterStone sits within Trimble

Trimble supplies connected hardware, software and services for construction, geospatial work, transportation, government and natural resources. The company says its aim is to link physical and digital information, using precise positioning, three-dimensional modeling and data analytics, so teams can make decisions with the right information at every stage of work. CenterStone gives that approach a facilities and workplace side. Trimble reports that it manages a large share of new construction project value each year through its ERP products, has subscribers to its SketchUp modeling software, and counts many of the largest North American trucking companies among its customers. It also publishes material for higher education students and educators, and covers disaster and climate resilience and plans for building and civil construction.
