How to enable Bid2Win integration

Updated November 04, 2026 19:36

This integration connects Motive to Bid2Win through the Trimble App Xchange integration platform, which orchestrates the flows and transforms fields between the two systems. It keeps the employee and vehicle rosters in sync in both directions, creates Motive Groups from Bid2Win Jobs, sends Motive geofences to Bid2Win, and sends vehicle fault codes and DVIR defects to Bid2Win as Maintenance Requests, replacing manual data entry between the two systems.

Integration Benefits

No duplicate data entry: Employee and vehicle records stay in sync between Bid2Win and Motive in both directions, so teams no longer re-enter the same drivers and equipment in two systems.
Jobs available as Motive Groups: Active and bid jobs in Bid2Win create and update Motive Groups, named by job number and job name, so drivers and dispatchers can tag activity to the correct job.
Geofences shared with Bid2Win: Geofences created in Motive are sent to Bid2Win, so they do not need to be recreated by hand.
Fault codes and DVIR defects as Maintenance Requests: Fault codes and DVIR defects reported in Motive are sent to Bid2Win as Maintenance Requests, which a shop supervisor can convert into work orders. Only DVIRs with defects create records.
Each system keeps its role: Bid2Win remains the source of truth for equipment identity and planning data, and Motive for live operational state. Syncs are idempotent, so re-running a flow does not create duplicate records.

Key Requirements

Trimble App Exchange: Both the Bid2Win and Motive connectors run on Trimble App Xchange, which handles flow orchestration, field transformations and scheduling.
Bid2Win API Access: The customer must have the API access to Bid2Win, and ensure the usage limits are within the customer's license terms.
App Xchange Agent (On-premise only): If the customer's Bid2Win application is on-premise, then the App Xchange Agent is required.
Motive Plan and API limits: The customer must have an active subscription to Motive plan, and ensure API usage is within the customer's usage limits.

Integration Steps in Motive

Note: Click the Install button on the Motive standalone marketplace.

On the Motive Dashboard, from the left-menu, click Marketplace.
Search for Bid2Win in the search bar.
Click Learn More on the Bid2Win tile from the search results.
Click Install.
After customer clicks install the system will generate a case for API support. The case is routed to PE team and Motive will schedule a kickoff call, post which the enablement process begins.
