From Design to Digital Twin: Building Indoor GIS with CAD and BIM Data

CAD and BIM have long served as the foundational design and construction documentation —but their utility often ends at project handoff. What if it didn’t? Indoor GIS is a floor-aware system of record for visualizing, analyzing, and managing facilities and collection of buildings. This session will demonstrate how to extend the life of CAD and BIM data into an indoor GIS, and empower CAD, BIM and GIS practitioners to build a Digital Workplace for building operations. Learn about the role of CAD and BIM integrations with GIS to fuel these workflows. See how to import design data into ArcGIS Indoors to map assets and manage spaces, enable real-time navigation with ArcGIS IPS, and equip facilities’ staff with mobile tools for asset inspections and maintenance. Whether new to GIS or looking to modernize facility operations workflows, this session provides you with guidance and examples to convert CAD and BIM data into Digital Workplaces that support asset and space management.

Seamless BIM-to-Fabrication-to-Field MEP Workflows: It's Not Just a Dream

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.

Data Exchange and Informed Design: A Game Changer for PD&M and AEC

Autodesk Informed Design and Data Exchange are the platform technologies we use to connect plant design and construction, with the help of Autodesk Forma. It's never been so easy to share data and its configurations. Data Exchange makes it very easy to collaborate and share information in integrated factory modeling (IFM) within Autodesk software systems, but also with applications such as Tekla or SolidWorks. Autodesk Forma helps us store all information centrally and make it available to everyone involved in the project. Informed Design offers the possibility to provide configurations from Inventor software for various types of building equipment in Revit software as configurable families. This ensures that only predefined variants are installed and prevents cost-intensive special solutions. Last year, we talked about the possibilities of the beta versions. Now we would like to take a closer look at the solutions and share experiences from customer projects with you. It's going to be good!

Beyond the Blueprint: Linking Factory Design and the Outside World Through Hybrid Data Management

The process of managing factory design layout data and fostering collaboration between the design team and external reviewers using Vault software and Autodesk Forma to handle clashes in Navisworks software is an integrated procedure. The design team can use AutoCAD software or Inventor software to develop the factory design layout, which is then stored in Vault. Vault acts as a secure, centralized storehouse for design data, enabling the team to access the latest information, reducing potential mistakes and rework. It also tracks version history and documents updates, offering clear accountability. Once the design is finalized, it can be disseminated to external reviewers through Autodesk Forma. Autodesk Forma serves as a shared data environment, allowing teams to collaborate and exchange design data in real time. It also supports model coordination, document management, and design review, augmenting collaboration between the design team and external reviewers.

BIM and CDE: Building a Solid Foundation for Smart Manufacturing

This case study explores how we automatically ingested Autodesk Forma 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?
