Las Vegas – November 10, 2026 -- Trimble has launched Trimble Connect Scheduling, an AI-assisted tool that links a construction master schedule to live project data and recommends adjustments before delays compound. The product was unveiled at the Trimble Dimensions User Conference as a native capability of the Trimble Connect platform.
Agentic AI engine monitors RFIs, weather and daily reports in real time
The solution is powered by an agentic planning engine that draws on the Trimble Connect common data environment and Trimble Connect Project Management. It reviews look-aheads, RFIs, weather forecasts, daily reports, submittals and BCF topics to calculate schedule risk continuously. The engine also cross-references current data with historical operational data and patterns to predict threats to the timeline.
When it detects emerging conflicts, such as pending RFIs or weather impacts, it proposes adjustments including float optimization or activity resequencing. Teams review and approve each change.
Trimble targets fragmented spreadsheet, whiteboard and email scheduling
Trimble says many office and field teams still manage schedules across spreadsheets, whiteboards, siloed niche applications, emails, texts and phone calls. That fragmentation creates version confusion and leaves schedules out of step with jobsite conditions. Nathan Patton, Trimble's product management leader for AI and office-to-field solutions, said traditional CPM scheduling is reactive and that the tool delivers "proactive intelligence" that catches micro-delays before they grow into project-wide overruns.
Primavera P6 and MS Project imports preserve logic and baselines
Contractors can build schedules from scratch in the tool or import Primavera P6, MS Project and other schedules while keeping logic and baselines intact. Color-coded field look-ahead tasks link natively to the master project Gantt chart. Trimble designed the interface for field leaders, project managers, scheduling professionals, estimators and executives.
The tool uses a domain-specific model trained on Trimble construction project data. Trimble contrasts it with generic large language models.
DILFO Mechanical and Consolidated Construction tested the tool for several months
Trimble developed the product with leading contractors, who used it over the past several months to streamline communication and organize schedules. Brendan Myers, vice president of DILFO Mechanical, said it meets both operations-team planning needs and field-team requirements for maintaining schedules, including those shared with general contractors. Shelly Klarner, software specialist at Consolidated Construction, said it handles everything from high-level milestones to the smallest project details.
Trimble Connect Scheduling is available in North America for general contractors and subcontractors of all sizes across all construction sectors.
