Everyone loves closeouts, right? Said no one ever. Finishing a project is tough—making sure everything's installed, punch lists are completed, permits are closed out, and everything's clean ... and don't forget the turnover package. In addition to closeout being one of the most difficult phases of a project, the way you finish a project is the last impression you leave with a client, further amplifying the pressure to succeed. This session will explore how Brinkman Construction implemented Autodesk Build software and Pype Closeout to help improve its closeout processes. This class will cover topics that focus on how Autodesk Construction Cloud tools streamlined Brinkman's process with fewer tools, saved time over traditional workflows, enabled turnover tasks to start sooner, increased visibility, and helped drive accountability.

This session will briefly review the benefits of IC and how it may be critical to tackling some of the most entrenched challenges in the construction industry today, including skilled worker shortages and safety concerns. We'll examine how the wider use of IC will impact the existing workforce—both negatively through displacement of workers, and positively through job creation, different working conditions, and younger and more diverse populations being drawn into the industry. We'll also look at what is needed to prepare the workforce to benefit from this transition, including training in needed skills. Steve Jones, Senior Director of Industry Insights Research at Dodge Data & Analytics (Dodge) will present findings from a recent study commissioned by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and conducted by Dodge and WSU.

Sustainability and cost efficiency for residential building is more important than ever. We will present with our customer Haas an integrated workflow from the configurator, an automated detailed design process in Revit to fabrication and the construction site. This digital process allows prospects to visually configure and calculate any residential or family timber house. These visualization of the customer's request via the house configurator leads to a faster and high-quality discussion with the customer. Seamless transition from configuration to design in Autodesk Revit ensures that no extra detail design work must be carried out manually. That model is transferred into the fabrication process and finally all data is leveraged via BIM360/ACC BUILD on construction sites for project and quality management and daily logs.

The cooperative approach of IPA fundamentally reforms conventional project execution at many levels with the goal of successfully realizing construction projects in terms of quality, schedules, and costs. Due to the complex user requirements and simultaneously intense time pressure, the client has opted for the integrated project delivery (IPD) method for the new laboratory building in Berlin. The new laboratory and research building is expected to be completed by 2028. A critical foundation for success is the model-based collaboration of the involved disciplines from planning and implementation. For this, interdisciplinary and process-spanning collaboration was organized and established with the suitable common data environment to efficiently design the participants' processes and automate them as much as possible.

In 2022, Gaylor Electric, a large electrical contractor in the United States, went all in with the beta version of Progress Tracking in Autodesk Build.

Affordable construction is a serious problem that affects us all, and we face a growing housing shortage in the 21st century. It's widely believed that prefabrication and industrialized construction are strategies that can help the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry produce buildings much faster, less expensively, and of higher quality than traditional on-site construction methods. When done right, prefabrication delivers clear benefits to multifamily housing and hotels, but also comes with risks. The right issues must be de-risked to ensure project success, centered on establishing a digital fabrication approach of Rooms as a Product (RaaP). With RaaP, we can enable industrialized construction by connecting teams, processes, and partners. We give developers access to a vetted prefab ecosystem, standardized documents, and a modular certified process to manage workflows. We also digitize the fabricators' pipeline of orders to increase predictability and lower costs to support mass customization.

Like most firms, Hazen is at times, unable to dictate which CM platform is used on every project. However, for the last several years we have an internal preferred solution that is not ACC Build. In late 2022 we began pilot testing Autodesk Build with the goal of the pilot being to determine whether we should begin integrating ACC Build going forward. If yes, should we use Autodesk Build on certain projects alongside our other platform, or should it replace that platform entirely? What we hope to gain from this pilot is identifying the feature and workflow differences between the two platforms, and whether Autodesk Build can provide an advantage in transferring our asset-ready intelligent models through construction and as-built into a digital twin / facility management product like Autodesk Tandem. This pilot project is expected to be completed in the fall of 2024, but we wanted to share our experiences so far and provide some insight into our findings.

As a virtual design and construction (VDC) manager for a general contractor (GC), one of the largest headaches is making sure your subcontractors get their models uploaded to your Autodesk Construction Cloud hub on time, and that they're named correctly and in the right format to make Model Coordination work seamlessly. What if it didn't have to be that way? If your subcontractors also happened to be working in Autodesk Construction Cloud, it doesn't have to be. What if they just published their own models internally and all the sharing happened automatically? This class will cover how to use the Bridge tool in Autodesk Construction Cloud to enable automatic sharing of models between Autodesk Construction Cloud hubs to streamline model coordination. Not only will we cover how to share models from the subcontractor's hub to the GC hub and then on into your coordination NWF, but we'll also show you how to share models from one subcontractor to another to enable direct coordination between subcontractor Revit models.

Autodesk Construction Cloud connects workflows, teams, and data at every stage of construction to reduce risk, maximize efficiency, and increase profits.
