Trimble Announces Acquisition of Kuebix, A Transportation Management System Provider

January 9, 2020
SupplyChainBrain

Trimble recently announced that it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire privately-held Kuebix, a transportation management system provider and creator of North America’s largest connected shipping community. This acquisition will enable Trimble to bring together its network of private fleet and commercial carrier customers with Kuebix’s community of more than 21,000 shipping companies, creating a new platform for planning, execution and freight demand-capacity matching. The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2020, subject to customary closing conditions. Financial terms were not disclosed.

 

“Combining Kuebix’s innovative platform and rapidly-growing community of shippers with Trimble’s history of innovation, strength and scale will provide a transformative transportation supply chain solution that creates new opportunities for collaboration throughout the logistics ecosystem,” said James Langley, Senior Vice President of Trimble Transportation. “This combination will help carriers uncover inefficiencies in their network, make better decisions, optimize operations and transform the way the transportation industry works.”

 

“The combination of Trimble and Kuebix will accelerate the realization of our vision; a world where shippers, carriers and intermediaries leverage the same powerful TMS platform to provide the market with unprecedented levels of visibility and efficiency,” said Dan Clark, founder and president, Kuebix. “A single-platform TMS across all transportation modes will make it easier for shippers and carriers to plan their strategy, design an optimized transportation network, improve execution, and more accurately manage settlements. When all players in the market work together, everyone wins.”

 

Kuebix’s business will be part of Trimble’s Transportation Sector.
