Empowering the Subcontractor: Stowe Australia's Nationwide Adoption of Autodesk Forma

While Management discussions often emphasize general/managing contractors, the true measure of successful digital adoption depends greatly on the buy-in and innovation of subcontractors. As Australia’s largest privately owned electrical subcontractor, with 14 branches nationwide, Stowe Australia recognized the critical need to digitally transform our entire business—not just isolated projects. By strategically deploying Autodesk Forma nationally, we've streamlined workflows, enhanced risk management, and empowered our teams to collaborate seamlessly across hundreds of projects. This session will share our journey, as well as practical insights for subcontractors, lessons learned from a large-scale implementation, and proven strategies to achieve measurable ROI and operational excellence. By the end of this session, you'll understand how subcontractors can successfully use Autodesk Forma to transform their business operations, gaining tangible benefits beyond a single project’s lifecycle.
