CIVIL engineering and groundworks contractor Kilmac has invested in Trimble off-machine technology to enhance its survey capabilities across a range of projects throughout Scotland.
SITECH UK & Ireland delivered six SPS720 total stations, six R780 GNSS rovers, and six TSC710 data collectors running Trimble Siteworks to support the company’s technology expansion.
The investment sits alongside Kilmac’s existing Trimble on-machine systems, meaning the business now runs a connected Trimble Civil Construction Technology ecosystem across office, field and machine.
The move supports expansion of Kilmac’s capabilities across multiple projects including the £76 million Clackmannanshire Wellbeing Hub and Lochies school site, scheduled for completion in late 2027.
By combining both on and off-machine technology, Kilmac aims to benefit from precision earthmoving, improved performance, and reduced rework across the project, which includes large-scale earthmoving, surface and foul water drainage systems, service tracking works, and landscaping. Trimble Business Centre and Works Manager complete the fully connected technology ecosystem, allowing for complete visibility and control across the project’s multiple phases.
Liam Payne, technical sales consultant at SITECH UK & Ireland, said, “SITECH has worked closely with Kilmac for over four years helping to broaden the scope of the company’s technology adoption. This most recent investment completes the company’s transition to a full-suite of Trimble Civil Construction Technology, delivering a fully connected site for maximum productivity.
“It’s great to see continued investment in connected site technology and digital construction workflows across Scotland, and we look forward to continuing to support the Kilmac team who have been early adopters in much of the technology we now see as essential across the industry.”
Bert Hope, procurement director at Kilmac Ltd, added, “Kilmac is proud to continually evolve alongside the needs of the industry and as such our relationship with technology has continued to develop and grow. Working with SITECH has not only enabled us to integrate Trimble technology into all facets of our operation, but to benefit from ongoing training and 24/7 support to ensure we are able to deliver projects on time and within budget.”
