Trimble Unveils Trimble Arc Agent, an AI Solution for Automating Manual Workflows in Global Supply Chains
Trimble has introduced a new artificial intelligence (AI) solution designed to automate manual workflows and streamline operations for global supply chains. The company’s latest innovation is called Trimble Arc Agent, which aims to simplify tasks and reduce reliance on multiple agents.
The single AI agent can handle complex tasks with ease, moving beyond the limitations of multi-agent setups that often hinder productivity in logistics teams. By automating office work and eliminating manual processes, Trimble Arc Agent enables organizations to focus on high-level strategy where human decision-making is crucial.
According to a recent survey conducted by Trimble and FreightWaves, 70% of transportation and logistics companies struggle with manual, repetitive tasks as their leading pain point. These tasks not only consume staff time but also stifle productivity.
The solution connects directly to existing transportation management systems (TMS) and third-party applications like Gmail and Outlook. By securely extracting and validating data from unstructured channels such as emails, PDFs, and spreadsheets, Trimble Arc Agent allows teams to turn real-world inputs into actionable system-of-record data.
Trimble Arc Agent is built with core agentic safety features that minimize the risk of AI hallucinations. This ensures organizations can drive faster throughput and reduce operational costs without compromising service levels or margins. The solution addresses industry concerns regarding AI reliability, making automation a viable option for companies looking to improve efficiency.
The skills catalog at the heart of Trimble Arc Agent is designed with governance controls and risk review workflows in mind. By combining a library of ready-to-use skills with custom skill-building capabilities, organizations can address their biggest challenges through simple natural language interactions.
Example skills include data entry, market insights, customer support, and personal assistant functions. These features allow teams to automate tasks such as order entry and contract intake, extract full truckload rate intelligence, provide contextual troubleshooting assistance, or consolidate daily workflows into a single overview.
The solution is available for Trimble customers worldwide on a single-tier subscription model with no seat limits or feature gates. Users receive 10 hours of agent working time (with additional overage hours available) and automatic access to all new skills and features as they launch.
Trimble Arc Agent’s design prioritizes safety, reliability, and explainability. The solution is built on enterprise-grade AI guardrails and human-in-the-loop controls that ensure AI-driven decisions are auditable and supportable. This approach addresses industry concerns regarding AI reliability so automation does not come at the cost of service commitments or compliance.
The Trimble Arc Agent skills catalog will continue to expand as new skills are added over time, allowing organizations to adapt their workflows according to changing needs. The solution’s intuitive interface enables users to easily build custom skills without requiring engineering resources.
Trimble is a global technology company that connects the physical and digital worlds, transforming the ways work gets done. With relentless innovation in precise positioning, modeling, and data analytics, Trimble enables essential industries including construction, geospatial, and transportation.
The introduction of Trimble Arc Agent marks another step forward for Trimble’s efforts to streamline operations and improve efficiency across various sectors. By providing a comprehensive solution that addresses the challenges faced by logistics teams, Trimble is helping organizations automate manual workflows and unlock new levels of productivity.
