Description
Civil infrastructure firms manage complex portfolios across fragmented legacy environments like network drives, ProjectWise, Microsoft SharePoint, and BIM 360. Transitioning to Autodesk Forma Data Management establishes a unified, cloud-native ecosystem. But doing so at scale introduces high operational risks. How do you migrate massive Civil 3D data sets without disrupting active data shortcuts and xrefs? Where do heavy InfraWorks models and point clouds reside? What is the governance strategy for historical deliverables? This session will deliver a strategic, repeatable migration playbook engineered for complex multi-office environments. Moving beyond theory, we'll provide a tool-by-tool, phased workflow. You'll learn how to audit file dependencies across legacy storage, map structures to the Autodesk Forma architecture, and execute staged migrations that maintain business continuity. You'll leave with an enterprise decision framework and an immediate deployment checklist.
