environmental responsibility extends throughout the whole supply chain,
Trimble encouraged its top suppliers to submit climate data to the CDP in
recognition of the critical role that suppliers play in the sustainability
ecosystem. Trimble also assigned procurement and sustainability goals to
all of its suppliers, demonstrating the company’s commitment to aligning its
partners with the firm’s strategic goals.
As per the sustainability report, Trimble has additionally implemented a
comprehensive employee travel policy in response to the changing nature
of work and travel. This policy aims to further reduce the carbon footprint of
the company by maintaining employee travel levels at or below 50 per cent
of pre-COVID levels. In line with its strong commitment to promoting clean
energy usage, Trimble has started the construction of a 1.7-megawatt solar
energy array at its headquarters in Colorado. This innovative project will
meet all of the facility’s electricity needs starting in early 2024, marking a
significant turning point in Trimble’s journey toward renewable energy.
Paul Wallett, Regional Director of Trimble Solutions Middle East and
India stated: “Sustainability is incorporated into every stage of the
construction process, from design to maintenance to demolition. Adopting
eco-friendly construction practices has become essential in these
processes as we continue to face environmental challenges. Sustainable
building materials are therefore becoming more popular as a result of their
capacity to lessen negative effects on the environment, preserve natural
resources, and increase the general longevity and efficiency of buildings.
Our goal is to advance this vision to drive positive changes in the industry
with the combined support and expertise of our suppliers and other
stakeholders and thereby achieve our ambitious goals for a greener future.”
According to reports and industry insights, construction practices in 2024
are expected to continue prioritising sustainability, with a strong focus on
lowering the sector’s carbon footprint. Trimble aspires to continue
advancing its sustainability objectives and create safer, more
environmentally friendly business practises with the help of its suppliers
and stakeholders, while encouraging more companies to be part of the
journey.
