Description
Discover how Brown and Caldwell (BC) transformed its design delivery by moving away from the rigid constraints of Bentley ProjectWise. In this real-world case study, BC will share how the firm unified its design and business ecosystems using Egnyte and Autodesk Forma, keeping systems natively in sync without friction. We'll explore how BC achieved true platform freedom, allowing every user type to work exactly where they're most comfortable, while ensuring central governance and auditability. Whether an engineer is modeling in Autodesk Forma or a project partner is collaborating directly in Egnyte, files stay completely mirror-matched across all formats from DGN and DWGâ„¢ to XLSX with absolutely no compromises. Designed for BIM/VDC and IT leaders, this session will provide the real-world reference architecture and checklist that BC used to maximize engineering speed and data integrity.
Key Learnings
- Learn how to design a zero-compromise ecosystem where files from DGN and DWG to XLSX stay natively in sync between Autodesk Forma and Egnyte.
- Learn how to plan a migration from the rigid constraints of Bentley ProjectWise to a synchronized model that increases engineering speed.
- Learn how to create a central auditability framework that supports native platform workflows while maintaining absolute user flexibility.
- Learn how to construct a standardized folder-mapping and metadata schema to automate project lifecycles.
