Isaac Instruments recently became the first external telematics platform to integrate the Trimble Transportation Cloud with the cloud-based Trimble Innovative Access Plus transportation management system, further validating the value of the Trimble Transportation Cloud in connecting the transportation and logistics supply chain.
This additional integration via the Trimble Transportation Cloud provides fleets greater flexibility for integrating different current and legacy versions of Innovative TMS to fit their operations. It is the result of a multi-year cooperative effort between the companies to help fleets be better positioned for a connected future.
“Isaac is pleased to be the first external telematics provider to offer fleet clients this cloud-based integration with Trimble,” Jacques DeLarochelliere, Isaac CEO and co-founder, said. “Isaac continues to invest in our integration team and strengthen relationships with technology partners like Trimble to deliver greater value to fleets.”

Recent Isaac fleet client and longtime Innovative TMS users, the Grant Group of Companies is the first fleet to utilize the cloud-based Innovative Access Plus integration. Based in Ontario, the Grant Group has more than 350 trucks across many operating units, including John Grant Haulage.
“Platform changes can be challenging, especially across the uniqueness of our different business units, but commissioning the fleets went smoothly with minimal disruption,” Heather LeBlanc, IT solutions manager, GGC, said.
LeBlanc stated the company has been pleased with the integration’s ease of onboarding drivers and strong system connectivity. In addition, the Isaac and Innovative teams are continually working together behind the scenes to support the fleet.
“We are anxious to expand our knowledge of what we can do with the integration,” LeBlanc said. “We know we are still just scratching the surface and want to better exploit these new advantages.”
The new integration is available to Trimble TMS customers currently implementing Innovative Access Plus.
