The concept of the TMI system is to use the most accurate, up-to-date, and complete data sources as practical. This involves using direct on-line data entry, data file transferring, and interfacing with other systems for information. The TMI system operates through the Caterpillar Network and functions under a Corporate Security System.
Since the TMI is a secured system, user's must have a current User ID and Password combination to "SIGN-ON." Consult your System Administrator for assistance in getting a User ID and Password to access this valuable resource.
