Last year, upwards of 75 million automobiles were sold worldwide. How many of those buyers stopped and asked themselves how their sweet new ride came to be? For the few who did, even fewer probably considered that it all starts with building the factory. The automotive industry finds itself at the intersection between manufacturing and construction. We can say from experience, constructing buildings and manufacturing vehicle parts at the same time in the same place is no small feat. It's like trying to build a car while it's driving 75 mph down the highway. Sometimes we get the pleasure of breaking ground at a new site, but we're often expanding or renovating existing facilities, all while still having to get products out the door. This session is for owners, manufacturers, and car people alike—join us for a discussion about our experiences with our construction projects, the tools we use to manage them, and how to deal with the nuances we face manufacturing and building at the same time.

How do you design a factory while missing key data about the machines you intend to install? How do you ensure a reliable, scalable flow of information across disciplinary boundaries, enabling true, trusted, and fast-paced collaboration? Making the world's greenest batteries on an industrial scale requires a new approach to factory design. Concurrently working on several multibillion-dollar gigafactory projects, Northvolt's central Factory Design Team uses an integrated factory design toolbox with its heart in the Autodesk ecosystem. However, a key component has until recently been missing: efficient, cross-disciplinary, and scalable data management. This session will tell the story of how Northvolt's Factory Design Team has established a dynamic data-management infrastructure, how conventional data silos are torn down, and how true design collaboration between manufacturing design and construction design can be achieved with scalability, modularization, and speed at its core.

This case study explores how we automatically ingested Autodesk Construction Cloud building information modeling (BIM) content (3D model, drawings, docs) using generative AI, knowledge graph technologies, and SAP gateways to automatically generate assets in SAP. This smart handover provides operations with an adapted data framework enabling rapid information contextualization to support any field engineering or maintenance problem-solving activities. In this POV—executed in collaboration with Autodesk, Capgemini, and Cognite—we've explored solutions to the two following business problems: How do we reduce the postdelivery bottleneck of asset creation in SAP from 12 months to less than one month, enabling bidirectional updates between SAP and BIM data sources? How do we reduce downtime and improve reliability by decreasing the response time following an event by 70%–80%? And how do we eliminate the burden of manual data gathering (contextualization) across multiple siloed systems and provide co-pilot support (generative AI) to summarize and correlate data sources?

Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) subcontractors are critical stakeholders in the AECMO built environment. We face a combination of cost pressures, skills and materials scarcity, and a journey toward digitalization. While the convergence of construction and manufacturing challenges us with new ways of working—including industrialized construction, building product componentization, and informed design—our building information modeling (BIM)-to-fabrication workflows must adapt. New Revit integrations and cloud-based fabrication workflows on a common data environment (CDE) for outcomes of connected construction and sustainability are critical. This panel of MEP contractors and experts will discuss insights of transformational BIM-to-fabrication-to-field workflows. The panel will show how streamlined workflows enable factory automation, data matrix tracking, and innovative remote machine operation using AR/VR technology. Learn how to make this your reality, not just a dream.

The life of a model begins in design, or even in early concept stages, but it extends throughout the project lifecycle. It takes on new shape and functions. It's enriched as it progresses from one team to the next. And it acts as a living representation of the project long after handover. Join us as we discuss ways to break traditional silos between teams and use Autodesk's design and construction solutions to author, prepare, and use models. This interactive workshop presented by our product development team will focus on what's to come in ACC and beyond.

Building information modeling (BIM) plays a pivotal role in design, construction, and operations, integrating multidisciplinary data to paint the full picture of the project for greater visibility and decision making. That picture starts to get blurry and unreliable when data isn't accurate or relevant. How do you cut through all that noise to deliver a usable and trustworthy model / data set? Every model goes through distinct phases: authoring, preparation, and actual use. The model can have many downstream uses, but for it to be of value, the model itself must be prepped and the rich data within organized. We have assembled innovative virtual design and construction (VDC) leaders at Gray, Metromont, and Accenture to share how they approach complex models to ensure quality and data-driven deliverables. They will share the processes they have in place to perform QC checks of the models for construction preparedness, and they'll discuss data curation from models and field data to prepare for AI workflows to inform future projects.

This session will look at a process with an in-house tool developed among other things with Autodesk Platform Services technologies allowing users to inject a Revit /IFC model into Power BI in just minutes, in order to visualize and exploit the data for different use cases (engineering and site work team). In this session, we'll view and export Bill of Quantities, check the data (automatic coloration depending of the value of the data), link to another database as an SOA (schedule of accommodation) to compare with the model and track it, and link to the schedule of the project to do a "4D."

This session will take a deep dive into our product road map, covering model-based workflows in Navisworks software, Autodesk BIM Collaborate Pro software, Autodesk Build software, and Assemble.
