Tata Projects is one of the first EPC contractors in India, implementing a fully digital strategy, for delivering large-scale infrastructure projects on digital-first concepts. One of the largest airport maintenance facilities that Tata Projects is delivering on EPC mode demonstrates the power of BIM integrated with Autodesk Construction Cloud—Autodesk Build, Autodesk BIM Collaborate, Autodesk Assemble, and Autodesk Insights—within a common data environment (CDE). This enhances collaboration among stakeholders, including the client, PMC, contractors, vendors, and design consultants. This talk will demonstrate how we merge engineering with construction execution, project controls, procurement, cost planning, and quantity control with real-time progress monitoring using dynamic BI dashboards—thus improving operational efficiency while reducing errors and risks. By pioneering this, we’re reimagining the construction lifecycle of a project through digitized process from inception to completion.

Imagine trying to connect a 3,000+ workforce on projects with a capacity of 300+ megawatts across Europe. Sisk has been using BIM and innovative technology for many years on complex data center projects. Our Data Centre Business Unit successfully captured two Autodesk Excellence Awards (2020 and 2022). We’ll take you on our Management journey, and share the valuable lessons learned during each stage of the transition from BIM 360 software to Autodesk Construction Cloud. We’ll demonstrate how Autodesk cloud platforms have enabled a holistic methodology that streamlines coordination, improves collaboration, drives Sustainable Design, and contributes to the wider digital / artificial intelligence (AI) data center construction landscape. Providing authentic content, we will give real-life examples from live construction projects where the use of Autodesk tools has resulted in a 50% efficiency increase in the management processes as compared to traditional methods, and we’ll cover how we ultimately design digitally and deliver physically using Autodesk Construction Cloud.

As construction teams face growing pressure to deliver faster and smarter, many still rely on fragmented tools that complicate workflows and muddy project visibility. This case study explores how Rodgers Builders transitioned from BIM 360 Field to Autodesk Build software while adopting Power BI to create unified dashboards for issue tracking, form management, and asset-based production insights. By fully embracing the capabilities of Autodesk Build—rather than piecemealing external solutions—Rodgers streamlined field reporting, enhanced quality control, and ensured data consistency from project start to finish. You’ll learn how to build connected reporting ecosystems that empower field teams, reduce manual work, and increase the ROI of their Autodesk Construction Cloud investment.

Autodesk Fusion Manage software helps users make data-driven decisions by keeping data consistent and enforcing processes. With all the data that Fusion Manage can track, we need a way to see what the data means and what's happening. Fusion Manage has built-in reporting features, but they may not always show the data the way you want or need. You can use Microsoft Power BI with your Fusion Manage tenant to get more options for how to display your data and who can access it. In this session, we'll show you how to use Autodesk Platform Services and R script to get data from all your Fusion Manage workspaces and create reports and dashboards for different users in your company. The R script we use in this class came from a previous AU presentation for BIM 360 software, but we've updated it for Fusion Manage and V2 authentication.

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.

Transitioning your AutoCAD/Civil 3D projects to the Autodesk Construction Cloud platform can seem overwhelming, especially for small to mid-sized companies. In this case study, we’ll explore how Crozier Consultant Engineers successfully migrated both new and existing projects to Autodesk Construction Cloud (Autodesk Docs, Autodesk BIM Collaborate Pro). For many companies, shifting from a Windows-based file system to Autodesk Docs is a relatively new experience. We'll examine the benefits of working in a cloud environment, and the challenges of moving existing projects to the cloud. Additionally, we'll explore best practices for this transition and the tools that can facilitate the process.

Utilities, retailers, hospital operators, towercos, and other companies may need to digitalize large portfolios with thousands of existing facilities to complete their digital journeys—either to fully benefit from building information modeling (BIM) in design and construction or as a first step for the creation of their digital twins. Those same companies typically have an inventory database that is either incorrect or incomplete, but that has value nonetheless, since it may be used to connect said assets with other enterprise solutions, including maintenance and operations management. In this technical instruction session, we will present a workflow for the end-to-end digitalization of a portfolio of facilities using a component-based approach. This workflow starts with any existing inventory, uses it in Autodesk Construction Cloud Assets and Forms to capture on-site data, then switches to Autodesk BIM Collaborate Pro software and Autodesk Docs software for the intelligent modeling of the facilities, and then again moves back to the Assets functionality for audit and validation.

This class will also cover how to set up and use BIM 360 Design software for sharing Revit, Robot Structural Analysis, and Advance Steel models, and to curate, coordinate, and manage deliverables throughout the project lifecycle. When design project teams have the right information at the right time, work happens faster.

This presentation will detail how Clayco has used the "Punch as You Build" process to streamline the usage of checklists and issues for quality-control tracking within the Autodesk Construction Cloud platform (BIM 360 and Autodesk Build). We'll not only cover how we've standardized issue types and subtypes across the enterprise (from early design to construction and even warranty), but also how we employ standard checklist and issue workflows across our 100+ concurrent projects. Furthermore, our presentation will demonstrate the benefits of standardization in developing and identifying enterprise-level, high-risk quality trends and solutions. We'll highlight the functionality and value of this process through the success one of our Clayco project teams had from implementing a culture of quality with the "Punch as You Build" process.

Want to learn more about how to preserve cultural heritage and memory within a scan-to-BIM process? This class is for you! We’ll go deep into the real practice used for digitizing Ipiranga Museum, located in Brazil’s São Paulo, the 12th most populous city in the world. A Brazilian history museum, Ipiranga Museum is a symbol of eclectic architecture and contains a vast collection of furniture, documents, and historically relevant artwork. Discover how to explore reality capture to generate and detail accurate models, including, in this case, both the Museum's Monument Building and Independency Park where it is situated. We will cover the many potential integrations among ReCap Pro software, Revit software, Civil 3D software, InfraWorks software, and BIM 360 software, and demonstrate the ongoing results of this project. These are the first steps toward developing a digital twin for an existing historical asset, with the conclusion planned for 2022.

The goal of this class is to demonstrate how contractors, like Kirby Engineering can leverage Big Data on projects. Kirby Engineering is currently harvesting information from the site team through QC checklists, Rfi submittals, drawing reviews, contract delivery and desktop audits on BIM 360 & Autodesk Construction Cloud. Kirby Engineering champion team would like to demonstrate the development of a business dashboard that would allow senior Directors make project decisions based on real data. Kirby team has set up an internal Data reporting team where ACC has proven to be central to the project data reported back. Other areas of focus include but are not limited to the use of integrations and tools to support data-driven decisions, such as Data Connector, PowerBi and ACC Connect. The class will be delivered by the customer together with Autodesk Customer Success team to demonstrate the importance of collaboration between construction customers and their technology partners.

Sanergy is a social enterprise based in Nairobi, Kenya, that safely collects and treats 12,000 tons of waste, converting it into valuable products: insect-based proteins derived from black soldier flies for animal feed, organic fertilizer, and biomass fuel briquettes. This model provides a closed-loop, zero-waste solution that ensures waste is transformed into high-quality sustainable products. We are in the process of scaling up our production of insect-based animal protein to convert roughly 70,000 tons per year of organic waste into 3,600 tons of animal feed through the construction of a new advanced facility. Sanergy is a devoted Autodesk user, and this massive construction project provided an opportunity to capitalize on the power of BIM 360 software. In this session, we will review the training given by third-party providers via the Autodesk Foundation, the challenges faced when rolling out a new technology-based way of working in construction within the context of an African country, and the benefits achieved.

Digital twins for building owners are emerging tools for facilities management, operations, and maintenance. The large benefits of digital twins to overall businesses beyond traditional practice are just being realized. As an iteration of digital twins from the digital manufacturing, product, and machine space, the current industry definition is this: Digital twins are software representations of assets, and processes that are used to understand, predict, and optimize performance in order to achieve improved business outcomes. Digital twins consist of three components: a data model, a set of analytics or algorithms, and knowledge. This roundtable will be jointly hosted by Walt Disney Parks and Resorts (WDPR), Brandon Wlosinski and Autodesk Consulting, and Dorian Chau to explore, define, and understand what digital twins mean for the building industry today. Bob Bray, senior director at ConstrucTwin at Autodesk, will provide his insights to the roundtable, as will other invited enterprise building owners.

With a campus in rural Rwanda—more than 100 kilometers from the capital Kigali, half of which is unpaved road—the University of Global Health Equity (UGHE) always planned to deploy BIM 360 Ops software to support and sustain facility maintenance functions. A pioneering global health science university, UGHE had proactive facilities maintenance as a top priority when opening their campus in January 2019. In April 2020, our team helped to facilitate the launch of BIM 360 Ops during COVID-19. Working remotely with UGHE’s facilities maintenance team, Skanska uploaded information to support the computerized maintenance management system. Using BIM 360 Ops, UGHE’s staff and outsourced service contractors share maintenance information across the 350,000-square-foot campus for an integrated facilities maintenance system. Attendees will learn best practices for asset and space naming, traditional and alternative strategies for managing preventative maintenance, and ways in which to virtually deploy BIM 360 Ops during COVID-19.

Construction Cloud is today being used across a large range of projects globally. This session will demonstrate a number of use cases, including how PlanGrid is helping build and maintain railways, Assemble is being used to quantify materials in dams, BuildingConnected is being used to source subcontractors for road projects, and BIM 360 software is being used to manage complex infrastructure projects. We will also show how Autodesk partners are being used in conjunction with Construction Cloud products to help infrastructure asset owners better use the data collected on a project.

This class is designed for project management (PM) team in terms of managing the project during the design as well as construction phase, which is enhanced by BIM 360 software. Along with the intelligent models that are being developed widely in the construction industry today, design collaboration and coordination is one of the challenges for the PM team, especially projects with many designers in different locations. Managing several kinds of documents in the construction phase—such as RFI, submittals, inspections, reports, and so on—is also challenging the PM team without standardization and response-in-time procedure. However, all those challenges can be minimized. With BIM 360 and project case studies, this class will provide the method to set up BIM 360 as a common data environment for design collaboration and coordination using a couple of BIM 360 features and a customized workflow. Moreover, a digital procedure in this class with BIM 360 Build software will help a PM team in the standardizing and digitizing of site workflow on RFIs, transmittals management, site inspection, safety, QA and QC, reports and more.

In the environmental industry, there is an ongoing need for analyzing and visualizing subsurface data such as soil and groundwater contamination in correlation with above-ground features to optimize the remediation design and thereby reduce the cost. An idea for a conceptual site model by integrating 3D contaminant plume with the InfraWorks tool has now been achieved to provide comprehensive understanding of a contaminated site. Also, the historical above-ground elements (roads, buildings, and tanks) were digitized using Civil 3D software and recreated using objects available within InfraWorks software. The integrated model was later published in BIM 360 software. A fly-through animated video was also developed in InfraWorks. With the help of Autodesk tools and environment, an idea has now become a reality as this is a powerful way to help client user experiences where physical and digital objects co-exist and interact in real time: clients can literally “see underground” on their sites.
