Connect Construction Workflows

Autodesk Construction Cloud is best-in-class software built for simplicity and power – uniting office, and field teams from design through planning, construction, and operations.

Autodesk Construction Cloud - Design Plan Build Operate

Design

Architects, engineers and project teams can collaborate on coordinated, shared designs – regardless of location, role in the project, or stage of the project. Simplify design development and reduce information loss at handover for better design collaboration. And truly connect design and construction for a more collaborative, more transparent partnership between designers and builders.

Autodesk Construction Cloud helps turn designs from a vision and set of documentation to a living asset that serves the needs of the building throughout its lifecycle.

Autodesk Construction Cloud - Design Plan Build Operate

Plan

Set your projects up for success before you break ground. Improve design quality and constructibility, create accurate takeoffs, and find the right builders for every project. Access the industry’s largest network of builders and vendor qualification management to mitigate risk for every project. Drive successful outcomes with cloud-based technology that automates manual tasks and streamlines collaboration between every project stakeholder.

With Autodesk Construction Cloud solutions, preconstruction teams can execute design intent, bid competitively, mitigate financial risks, and remain profitable by streamlining coordination, model conditioning, quantification, bid management, and qualification.

Autodesk Construction Cloud - Design Plan Build Operate

Build

Construction often operates in a fragmented way, with disconnection between project phases leading to uncertainty throughout the project and an inability to control project outcomes. Connecting issues, RFIs and progress between the office and field, and analyzing that data with machine learning can impact cost, schedule, quality and safety on every job.

Autodesk Construction Cloud helps overcome these barriers by removing siloes, supporting interoperability between work phases and turning project data into actionable intelligence.

Autodesk Construction Cloud - Design Plan Build Operate

Operate

Connect BIM asset data created during design and construction to building operations for model viewing, and access to maintenance checklists, scheduling, and history. With all project teams working in a common data platform, owners gain visibility into project status, changes and problems.
