Trimble’s acquisition of Kuebix is made official

The early January announcement that Sunnyvale, Calif.-based Trimble, a provider of end-to-end technology solutions to for-hire motor carriers, private fleets, freight brokerage, and third-party logistics providers, inked a definitive agreement to acquire Maynard, Mass.-based TMS provider and creator of the North America’s largest connected shipping community Kuebix, has now been made official, Trimble officials told LM.

When this deal was initially announced, Trimble said it would close during the first quarter. A purchase price was not disclosed.

In January, Trimble said that Kuebix will enable the company to mesh its private fleet and commercial carrier customer network, which is comprised of more than 1.3 million North America-based commercial trucks, with the more than 21,000 shipping companies network, which, in turn, it said, will form what it called a powerful new platform for planning, executing, and freight demand capacity-matching.
