| Accounting Policies | ACCOUNTING POLICIES Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Estimates are used for allowances for doubtful accounts, sales returns reserve, allowances for inventory valuation, warranty costs, investments, goodwill impairment, intangibles impairment, purchased intangibles, stock-based compensation, and income taxes among others. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that may impact the company in the future, actual results may differ materially from management’s estimates. Basis of Presentation The Company has a 52-53 week fiscal year, ending on the Friday nearest to December 31. Fiscal 2013 was a 53-week year and ended on January 3, 2014. Fiscal 2012 and 2011 were both 52-week years, and ended on December 28, 2012 and December 30, 2011, respectively. Unless otherwise stated, all dates refer to the Company’s fiscal year. These Consolidated Financial Statements include the results of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. Inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Noncontrolling interests represent the noncontrolling shareholders’ proportionate share of the net assets and results of operations of the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries. The Company has evaluated all subsequent events through the date that these financial statements have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company has presented revenue and cost of sales separately for products, service and subscriptions. Product revenue includes primarily hardware, software licenses, parts and accessories; service revenue includes primarily hardware and software maintenance and support, training and professional services; subscription revenue includes software as a service (SaaS). On March 20, 2013 the Company effected a 2-for-1 split of all outstanding shares of Common Stock. All shares and per share information presented has been adjusted to reflect the stock split on a retroactive basis for all periods presented. Certain immaterial amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation, including certain line items within the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows as well as the components of deferred taxes in Note 10. Foreign Currency Translation Assets and liabilities of non-U.S. subsidiaries that operate in local currencies are translated to U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, with the resulting translation adjustments directly recorded to a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax in accumulated other comprehensive income within the shareholders’ equity section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Income and expense accounts are translated at average monthly exchange rates during the year. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include all cash and highly liquid investments with insignificant interest rate risk and maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. Concentration of Risk Cash and cash equivalents are maintained with several financial institutions. Deposits held with banks may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. Generally, these deposits may be redeemed upon demand and are maintained with financial institutions of reputable credit and therefore bear minimal credit risk. The Company is also exposed to credit risk in the Company’s trade receivables, which are derived from sales to end-user customers in diversified industries as well as various resellers. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and limits the amount of credit extended when deemed necessary but generally does not require collateral. With Flextronics Corporation International as an exclusive manufacturing partner for many of its products, the Company is dependent upon a sole supplier for the manufacture of these products. In addition, the Company relies on sole suppliers for a number of its critical components. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. The Company evaluates the ongoing collectibility of its trade accounts receivable based on a number of factors such as age of the accounts receivable balances, credit quality, historical experience, and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. In circumstances where the Company is aware of a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations to the Company, a specific allowance for bad debts is estimated and recorded which reduces the recognized receivable to the estimated amount that the Company believes will ultimately be collected. In addition to specific customer identification of potential bad debts, bad debt charges are recorded based on the Company’s recent past loss history and an overall assessment of past due trade accounts receivable amounts outstanding. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of standard cost (which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis) or market. Adjustments are also made to reduce the cost of inventory for estimated excess or obsolete balances. Factors influencing these adjustments include declines in demand, technological changes, product life cycle and development plans, component cost trends, product pricing, physical deterioration and quality issues. Business Combinations The Company allocates the fair value of purchase consideration to the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and non-controlling interests in the acquiree generally based on their fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair value of these assets acquired, liabilities assumed and non-controlling interests in the acquiree is recorded as goodwill. When determining the fair values of assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and non-controlling interests in the acquiree, management makes significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Critical estimates in valuing intangible assets include, but are not limited to, expected future cash flows, which includes consideration of future growth rates and margins, attrition rates, future changes in technology and brand awareness, loyalty and position, and discount rates. Fair value estimates are based on the assumptions management believes a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability. Amounts recorded in a business combination may change during the measurement period, which is a period not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition, as additional information about conditions existing at the acquisition date becomes available. Goodwill and Purchased Intangible Assets Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Intangible assets acquired individually, with a group of other assets, or in a business combination are recorded at fair value. Identifiable intangible assets are comprised of distribution channels and distribution rights, patents, licenses, technology, acquired backlog, trademarks and in-process research and development. Identifiable intangible assets are being amortized over the period of estimated benefit using the straight-line method, reflecting the pattern of economic benefits associated with these assets, and have estimated useful lives ranging from one month to twelve years with a weighted average useful life of 6.4 years. Goodwill is not subject to amortization, but is subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment, applying a fair-value based test. Impairment of Goodwill, Intangible Assets and Other Long-Lived Assets The Company evaluates goodwill, at a minimum, on an annual basis and whenever events and changes in circumstances suggest that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company performs its annual goodwill impairment testing in the fourth fiscal quarter of each year based on the values on the first day of that quarter. For the Company's annual goodwill impairment test in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company chose not to perform the optional qualitative assessment for any of its reporting units. Instead, goodwill was reviewed for impairment utilizing a quantitative two-step process. In the first step of this test, goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level by comparing the reporting unit’s carrying amount, including goodwill, to the fair value of the reporting unit. The fair values of the reporting units are estimated using a discounted cash flow approach. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, a second step is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. In step two, the implied fair value of goodwill is calculated as the excess of the fair value of a reporting unit over the fair values assigned to its assets and liabilities. If the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the carrying value of the reporting unit’s goodwill, the difference is recognized as an impairment loss. When the Company performs a quantitative assessment of goodwill impairment, the determination of fair value of a reporting unit involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. The discounted cash flows are based upon, among other things, assumptions about expected future operating performance using risk-adjusted discount rates. Actual future results may differ from those estimates. As of the first day of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, for each reporting unit, the Company’s estimated fair values exceeded the carrying values by substantial margins on a percentage basis. This includes the results for certain earlier stage reporting units, which due to the smaller magnitude of the carrying value and fair value of each respective reporting unit, the margins by which the fair value exceeded the carrying value on an absolute dollar basis were relatively small. Depreciation and amortization of the Company’s intangible assets and other long-lived assets is provided using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, reflecting the pattern of economic benefits associated with these assets. Changes in circumstances such as technological advances, changes to the Company’s business model, or changes in the capital strategy could result in the actual useful lives differing from initial estimates. In those cases where the Company determines that the useful life of an asset should be revised, the Company will depreciate the net book value in excess of the estimated residual value over its revised remaining useful life. These assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. The estimated future cash flows are based upon, among other things, assumptions about expected future operating performance and may differ from actual cash flows. The assets evaluated for impairment are grouped with other assets to the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets and liabilities. If the sum of the projected undiscounted cash flows (excluding interest) is less than the carrying value of the assets, the assets will be written down to the estimated fair value. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, shipment has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. In instances where final acceptance of the product is specified by the customer or is uncertain, revenue is deferred until all acceptance criteria have been met. Contracts and/or customer purchase orders are used to determine the existence of an arrangement. Shipping documents and customer acceptance, when applicable, are used to verify delivery. The Company assesses whether the fee is fixed or determinable based on the payment terms associated with the transaction and whether the sales price is subject to refund or adjustment. The Company assesses collectibility based primarily on the creditworthiness of the customer as determined by credit checks and analyses, as well as the customer’s payment history. Revenue for orders is generally not recognized until the product is shipped and title has transferred to the buyer. The Company bears all costs and risks of loss or damage to the goods up to that point. The Company’s shipment terms for U.S. orders and international orders fulfilled from the Company’s European distribution center typically provide that title passes to the buyer upon delivery of the goods to the carrier named by the buyer at the named place or point. If no precise point is indicated by the buyer, delivery is deemed to occur when the carrier takes the goods into its charge from the place determined by the Company. Other shipment terms may provide that title passes to the buyer upon delivery of the goods to the buyer. Shipping and handling costs are included in Cost of sales. Revenue from sales to distributors and dealers is recognized upon shipment, assuming all other criteria for revenue recognition have been met. Distributors and dealers do not have a right of return. Revenue from purchased extended warranty and post contract support (PCS) agreements is deferred and recognized ratably over the term of the warranty or support period. Revenue from the Company's subscription services related to its hardware and software applications is recognized ratably over the term of the subscription service period beginning on the date that service is made available to the customer, assuming all revenue recognition criteria have been met. The Company presents revenue net of sales taxes and any similar assessments. The Company’s software arrangements generally consist of a perpetual license fee and PCS. The Company generally has established vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value for the Company’s PCS contracts based on the renewal rate. The remaining value of the software arrangement is allocated to the license fee using the residual method. License revenue is primarily recognized when the software has been delivered and fair value has been established for all remaining undelivered elements. In cases where VSOE of fair value for PCS is not established, revenue is recognized ratably over the PCS period after all software deliverables have been made and the only the undelivered element is PCS. Some of the Company’s subscription product offerings include hardware, subscription services and extended warranty. Under these hosted arrangements, the customer typically does not have the contractual right to take possession of the software at any time during the hosting period without incurring a significant penalty and it is not feasible for the customer to run the software either on its own hardware or on a third-party’s hardware. The Company’s multiple deliverable product offerings include hardware with embedded firmware, extended warranty, software, PCS and subscription services, which are considered separate units of accounting. For certain of the Company’s products, software and non-software components function together to deliver the tangible product’s essential functionality. In evaluating the revenue recognition for the Company's hardware or subscription agreements which contain multiple deliverable arrangements, the Company determined that in certain instances the Company was not able to establish VSOE for some or all deliverables in an arrangement as the Company infrequently sold each element on a standalone basis, did not price products within a narrow range, or had a limited sales history. When VSOE cannot be established, the Company attempts to establish the selling price of each element based on relevant third-party evidence (TPE). TPE is determined based on competitor prices for similar deliverables when sold separately. Generally, the Company’s go-to-market strategy differs from that of competitors, and offerings may contain a significant level of proprietary technology, customization or differentiation such that the comparable pricing of products with similar functionality cannot be obtained. Furthermore, the Company is unable to reliably determine what similar competitor products’ selling prices are on a stand-alone basis. Therefore, the Company typically is not able to establish the selling price of an element based on TPE. When the Company is unable to establish selling price using VSOE or TPE, the Company uses its best estimate of selling price (BESP) in the Company’s allocation of arrangement consideration. The objective of BESP is to determine the price at which the Company would transact a sale if the product or service were sold on a stand-alone basis. BESP is generally used for offerings that are not typically sold on a stand-alone basis or for new or highly customized offerings. The Company determines BESP for a product or service by considering multiple factors including, but not limited to, pricing practices, market conditions, competitive landscape, internal costs, geographies and gross margin. The determination of BESP is made through consultation with and formal approval by the Company’s management, taking into consideration the Company’s go-to-market strategy. Warranty The Company accrues for warranty costs as part of its cost of sales based on associated material product costs, technical support labor costs, and costs incurred by third parties performing work on the Company’s behalf. The Company’s expected future cost is primarily estimated based upon historical trends in the volume of product returns within the warranty period and the cost to repair or replace the equipment. The products sold are generally covered by a warranty for periods ranging from 90 days to 5.5 years. While the Company engages in extensive product quality programs and processes, including actively monitoring and evaluating the quality of component suppliers, its warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates, material usage, and service delivery costs incurred in correcting a product failure. Should actual product failure rates, material usage, or service delivery costs differ from the estimates, revisions to the estimated warranty accrual and related costs may be required. Changes in the Company’s product warranty liability during the fiscal years ended 2013 and 2012 are as follows:
Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others In the normal course of business to facilitate sales of its products, the Company indemnifies other parties, including customers, lessors, and parties to other transactions with the Company, with respect to certain matters. The Company has agreed to hold the other party harmless against losses arising from a breach of representations or covenants, or out of intellectual property infringement or other claims made against certain parties. These agreements may limit the time within which an indemnification claim can be made and the amount of the claim. In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with its officers and directors, and the Company’s bylaws contain similar indemnification obligations to the Company’s agents. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount under these indemnification agreements due to the limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, payments made by the Company under these agreements have not been material and no liabilities have been recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at the end of fiscal 2013 and 2012. Advertising Costs The Company expenses all advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense was approximately $33.8 million, $32.9 million, and $23.7 million, in fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Research and Development Costs Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. Cost of software developed for external sale subsequent to reaching technical feasibility were not significant and were expensed as incurred. The Company received third party funding of approximately $5.1 million, $3.5 million, and $7.8 million in fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company offsets research and development expense with any third party funding earned. The Company retains the rights to any technology developed under such arrangements. Stock-Based Compensation The Company has employee stock benefit plans, which are described more fully in “Note 12: Employee Stock Benefit Plans.” Stock compensation expense recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income is based on the fair value of the portion of share-based payment awards that is expected to vest during the period and is net of estimated forfeitures. The Company attributes the value of stock options to expense using the straight-line single option method. The grant date fair value for options is estimated using the binomial valuation model. The fair value of rights to purchase shares under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Property and Equipment, Net Property and equipment, net is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation of property and equipment owned is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives or the lease terms when applicable. Useful lives generally include a range from four to six years for machinery and equipment, five to seven years for furniture and fixtures, two to five years for computer equipment and software, 39 years for buildings, and the life of the lease for leasehold improvements. The Company capitalizes eligible costs to acquire or develop internal-use software that are incurred subsequent to the preliminary project stage. Capitalized costs related to internal-use software are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range generally from two to five years. The costs of repairs and maintenance are expensed when incurred, while expenditures for refurbishments and improvements that significantly add to the productive capacity or extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized. Depreciation expense was $26.7 million in fiscal 2013, $23.7 million in fiscal 2012 and $20.5 million in fiscal 2011. Derivative Financial Instruments The Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to minimize the short-term impact of foreign currency fluctuations on cash, certain trade and inter-company receivables and payables, primarily denominated in Australian, Canadian, Singapore and New Zealand Dollars, Japanese Yen, Chinese Yuan, Indian Rupee, Brazilian Real, South African Rand, Swedish Krona, Swiss Franc, Euro and British pound. These contracts reduce the exposure to fluctuations in exchange rate movements as the gains and losses associated with foreign currency balances are generally offset with the gains and losses on the forward contracts. These instruments are marked to market through earnings every period and generally range from one to three months in original maturity. The Company occasionally enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge the purchase price of some of its larger business acquisitions. The Company does not enter into foreign exchange forward contracts for trading purposes. Income Taxes Income taxes are accounted for under the liability method whereby deferred tax assets or liability account balances are calculated at the balance sheet date using current tax laws and rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not such assets will not be realized. The Company’s valuation allowance is primarily attributable to foreign net operating losses and state research and development credit carryforwards. Management believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize certain of these deferred tax assets, and, accordingly, a valuation allowance has been provided for such amounts. Valuation allowance adjustments associated with an acquisition after the measurement period are recorded through income tax expense. Relative to uncertain tax positions, the Company only recognizes the tax benefit if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such positions are then measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. See Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Computation of Earnings Per Share The number of shares used in the calculation of basic earnings per share represents the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period and excludes any potentially dilutive securities including outstanding stock options, shares to be purchased under the Company’s employee stock purchase plan, unvested restricted stock units and restricted stock awards, warrants, and convertible securities. The dilutive effects of outstanding stock options, shares to be purchased under the Company’s employee stock purchase plan, non-vested restricted stock units and restricted stock awards, warrants, and convertible securities are included in diluted earnings per share. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued a new accounting standard that will generally require the presentation of certain unrecognized tax benefits as reductions to deferred tax assets rather than as liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. Trimble will adopt this new standard on a prospective basis in the first quarter of fiscal 2014. The Company does not anticipate a material impact on its consolidated financial statements as a result of this change. |

| Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Earnings Per Share | EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing Net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing Net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive securities had been issued. Potentially dilutive securities include outstanding stock options, shares to be purchased under the Company’s employee stock purchase plan and unvested restricted stock units. The dilutive effect of potentially dilutive securities is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, an increase in the fair market value of the Company’s common stock can result in a greater dilutive effect from potentially dilutive securities. The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:
For fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011 the Company excluded 3.1 million shares, 4.8 million shares and 3.8 million shares of outstanding stock options, respectively, from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been antidilutive. |

| Business Combinations | NOTE 4: BUSINESS COMBINATIONS During fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011 the Company acquired multiple businesses, all with cash consideration. The Consolidated Statements of Income include the operating results of the businesses from the dates of acquisition. During fiscal 2013, the Company acquired sixteen businesses across its Engineering and Construction, Field Solutions, and Mobile Solutions segments. None of the acquisitions were significant individually or in the aggregate. The purchase prices ranged from less than $0.5 million to $80.0 million. The largest acquisitions were of a company that provides product and pricing information to the MEP industry within the Engineering and Construction segment, and a software for logistics provider within the Mobile Solutions segment. In the aggregate, the business acquired during fiscal 2013 collectively contributed less than three percent to the Company's total revenue during fiscal 2013. During fiscal 2012 none of the acquisitions completed were significant individually, but in the aggregate they were significant. TMW, representing 45% of the total cash consideration, was the largest of the 2012 acquisitions, and related information is presented below. During fiscal 2011, each of the acquisitions was not material individually except for the acquisition of Tekla Corporation (“Tekla”) in July 2011, which related information is presented below. The Company determined the total consideration paid for each of its acquisitions as well as the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of each acquisition. For certain acquisitions completed in fiscal 2013, the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary and may be adjusted as the Company obtains additional information, primarily related to adjustments for the true up of acquired net working capital in accordance with certain purchase agreements, and estimated values of certain net tangible assets and liabilities including tax balances, pending the completion of final studies and analyses. If there are adjustments made for these items the fair value of intangible assets and goodwill could be impacted. Thus the provisional measurements of fair value set forth below are subject to change. Such changes could be significant. The Company expects to finalize the valuation of the net tangible and intangible assets as soon as practicable, but not later than one-year from the acquisition date. The fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed were determined under the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. The excess of purchase consideration over the fair value of net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The fair value of intangible assets acquired is generally determined based on a discounted cash flow analysis. Acquisition costs directly related to the acquisitions of $13.5 million, $20.5 million and $14.9 million in fiscal 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively were expensed as incurred and were included in General and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The following table summarizes the Company’s business combinations completed during fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011 including TMW and Tekla:
Intangible Assets The following table presents details of the Company’s total intangible assets:
The weighted-average amortization period is six years for developed product technology, five years for trade names and trademarks, eight years for customer relationships, and seven years for distribution rights and other intellectual properties. The following table presents details of the amortization expense of purchased and other intangible assets as reported in the Consolidated Statements of Income:
The estimated future amortization expense of intangible assets at the end of fiscal 2013, is as follows (in thousands):
Goodwill The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for fiscal 2013 are as follows (in thousands):
TMW and Tekla Acquisitions On October 2, 2012, the Company acquired all the outstanding shares of common stock of privately-held TMW Systems, Inc. (TMW) of Beachwood, Ohio, a provider of enterprise software to transportation and logistics (T&L) companies. TMW's transportation software platform serves as a central hub from which the core operations of transportation organizations are managed, data is stored and analyzed, and mission critical business processes are automated. TMW's enterprise software currently integrates with Trimble's T&L solutions (primarily PeopleNet), and one of the objectives of the acquisition was to leverage complementary technology to deliver to customers a more comprehensive and integrated end to end solution for transportation management. Additionally, Trimble's global presence was expected to extend TMW's reach and scope beyond its leading position in North America. TMW’s results of operations since October 2, 2012 have been included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income. TMW’s performance is reported under the Mobile Solutions business segment. On July 8, 2011, the Company acquired 99.46% of the outstanding shares of Tekla. The Company purchased the remaining shares of Tekla in February 2012 after completing compulsory redemption proceedings under the Finish Companies Act. Tekla is a provider of information model based software for the building and construction and infrastructure and energy industries. The objective of the acquisition was to integrate Tekla's Building Information Modeling (BIM) software solutions with Trimble's building construction estimating, project management and BIM-to-field solutions and enable productivity solutions for contractors around the world. Tekla's infrastructure and energy solutions complement Trimble's portfolio of utility and municipality solutions. Additionally, Trimble's global customer base was expected to extend Tekla's customer reach while Tekla's global presence in the building and construction market was expected to benefit Trimble's own customer reach. Tekla’s results of operations have been included in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Income beginning July 8, 2011. Tekla’s building and construction activities are included within the Company’s Engineering and Construction business segment and Tekla’s infrastructure and energy activities are included within the Company’s Field Solutions business segment. The following table summarizes the consideration transferred to acquire TMW and Tekla, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and the estimated useful lives of the identifiable intangible assets acquired as of the date of each acquisition:
* Of the $457.4 million, $2.5 million was held in a cash account at the end of fiscal 2011 and represents the 0.54% of shares that were not yet acquired by the Company. In February, 2012 the Company purchased the remaining shares at the same per share price as was provided for the original 99.46% of shares obtained. Therefore, the non-controlling interest was valued based on that per-share price. Details of the net tangible assets acquired are as follows:
Goodwill recorded for TMW and Tekla consisted of a valuable assembled workforce, a proven ability to generate new products and services to drive future revenue, and a premium paid by the Company for synergies unique to its business. Of the $290.4 million of goodwill recorded for the Tekla acquisition, $245.6 million was assigned to the Engineering and Construction segment and $44.8 million was assigned to the Field Solutions segment. The $233.9 million recorded for TMW was assigned to the Mobile Solutions segment. None of the amounts assigned to goodwill are expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The following table presents pro forma results of operations of the Company, TMW and Tekla, as if the companies had been combined as of the beginning of the earliest period presented. The unaudited pro forma results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results that would have occurred had the acquisition taken place at the beginning of the earliest period presented, or of future results. Included in the pro forma results are fair value adjustments based on the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. During fiscal 2012, TMW contributed $16.5 million of revenue and recorded $1.7 million of operating income. During fiscal 2011, Tekla contributed $35.9 million of revenue and recorded $0.1 million of operating income. Pro-forma results include amortization of intangible assets related to the acquisitions, interest expense for debt used to purchase TMW and Tekla, acquisition related costs associated with the purchases, income tax effects, and for fiscal 2011 the pro forma results exclude a foreign currency transaction gain recognized on a hedge. The pro forma information for fiscal 2012 and 2011 is as follows:

| Reporting Segment And Geographic Information | REPORTING SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION Trimble is a designer and distributor of positioning products and applications enabled by GPS, optical, laser, and wireless communications technology. The Company provides products for diverse applications in its targeted markets. To achieve distribution, marketing, production, and technology advantages, the Company manages its operations in the following four segments:
The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), its Chief Executive Officer, evaluates each of its segment’s performance and allocates resources based on segment operating income before income taxes and some corporate allocations. The Company and each of its segments employ consistent accounting policies. In each of its segments the Company sells many individual products. For this reason it is impracticable to segregate and identify revenue for each of these individual products or group of products. The following table presents revenue, operating income, depreciation expense and identifiable assets for the four segments. Operating income is revenue less cost of sales and operating expense, excluding general corporate expense, amortization of purchased intangible assets, amortization of acquisition-related inventory step-up, acquisition costs and restructuring costs. The identifiable assets that CODM views by segment are accounts receivable, inventories and goodwill.
