Thank you to everyone who was able to join us for our first official 2022 Spectrum User Summit, June 8-9! We spent two days sharing product tips and best practices, exciting new release information, customer-led sessions, and a lot more—all specific to Spectrum, your workflow, and your job.

Attendees got to hear from a slew of Trimble leaders sharing the importance of Connected Construction and our vision to help you into a more secure — and profitable — future. Our knowledgeable presenters demonstrated how we’re helping you track projects and create more predictable profit, all while enabling you to get more time back to focus on your bigger strategic priorities. In addition to all this, our lineup of Deep Dive Sessions gave attendees an opportunity for more in-depth learning in the areas of Project Management, HR Management, Project Financials, and more.

But, the goodness didn’t end at the closing of the Summit. All content is available on-demand to you whether you attended or not! This means you can watch or re-watch any of our sessions anytime, anywhere. Enjoy!

Welcome to the Trimble Viewpoint Quarterly Construction Metrics Index: Q1 2022! The quarterly report uses real-time Trimble Viewpoint customer data inputted during the first quarter of 2022, to highlight project statistics, contract values, hiring metrics, and cash flow trends.

The index is produced quarterly and designed to provide industry leaders with early insights into the construction business landscape so that they can assess how their own companies are tracking against industry averages.

If you missed our webinar, Quarterly Metrics Index: Q1 2022 in late June, our experts covered key metrics that showcase the state of the construction industry and took a deep dive into critical industry data points that reveal trends including project starts, hiring, and other major indices. In addition, attendees gained early directional information to help them assess how their own company tracks against real-time industry average. You can review the recording here.

For more information, take a few minutes to check out the Quarterly Construction Metrics Index yourself.
