Presentation on 5 May 2025 - "All Hands Call" -  Michael Carris and  Charles Ward, focused on integrating Triple Marine Construction's (TMC) Dredging Quality Management (DQM) system, highlighting its workflow, data applications, and value proposition for stakeholders like the USACE and dredging contractors.  

This plan provides Trimble Marine Dealers with an actionable framework to understand the DQM+TMC integration, target the right customers, and implement effective marketing strategies to capitalize on this growing market need

The DQM (Dredge Quality Management) program is the USACE (USA Corps of Engineers) standardized dredge remote monitoring and documentation system. DQM specifications are or will become a requirement on USA government dredge contracts.

The National Dredging Quality Management (DQM) Program is the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) automated dredging monitoring system and analysis tool for the modern USACE dredging manager. The mission of the National DQM Program is to provide the USACE dredging manager with a nationally standardized, low cost remote monitoring and documentation system. This system provides the Corps with timely data access, multiple reporting formats, full technical support, including dredge certifications, data quality control, database management, and support for the DQM operating system. On board the dredge, sensors continually monitor dredge activities, operations, and efficiency. Information from these sensors is routed to the National DQM Support Center for data processing, storage and publishing. The DQM web-based tools can be utilized to view project operations, produce disposal plots, and export data of dredge operations. The USACE recently provided Trimble with an opportunity to execute a pilot project on a working dredge vessel to determine whether Trimble Marine Construction software can be made compatible to work within the DQM protocol requirements.
