Copachisa is a general contractor of projects ranging from 100,000 sq. ft. to 1 million sq. ft. from schematic design to as-built documentation. In this session, we will share our experience moving forward working in a collaborative environment using Autodesk Forma. Before the pandemic, we usually worked with our information in a physical server. Due the necessity of working remotely, we decided to use BIM 360 software. The challenge was to move 40+ subcontractors and about 42 active projects very quickly (roughly two weeks). The most relevant part was first training the design teams, and then the whole organization. In a short time, we noticed the benefits of working in a web-based environment—for instance, extracting project data to conduct analytics—so we decided to expand our design workflows to precon and construction teams covering the entire project lifecycle. In 2023, we're redefining our internal processes, and by the beginning of 2024, the complete project cycle will be running in this environment.

Project stakeholders need to understand the state of their projects in a simple and easy-to-consume format. Autodesk Forma users can maximize the power of Construction IQ software to produce predictive insights and display the project analytics in a powerful but easy-to-understand dashboard with live links to the information. Construction IQ, with the help of machine learning, allows the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) teams to prioritize issues, and streamline and expedite decision making, thus improving the project delivery outcomes for all stakeholders. This presentation will showcase GHD's use of machine learning within Construction IQ to surface the data on safety and quality, enabling the resolution of issues before they become critical on site. Through this session, you'll better understand how to implement Construction IQ on your project today, gaining insights into projects that otherwise wouldn't be possible.

Are you struggling to manage multiple projects under a single framework? Do you find it challenging to ensure seamless information exchange and consistency in structuring information? If yes, then this class is for you. Atkins, a design consultant for Dublin and Cork Airports, faced a unique challenge of managing around 50 subprojects per year under a five-year framework. To overcome this challenge, we used Autodesk Forma to build a connected ecosystem that helps the delivery team manage their single source of truth and exchange information with internal and external stakeholders seamlessly. In this class, you'll learn how we capitalized on Autodesk Forma to build a scalable ecosystem for managing multiproject frameworks. You'll gain insights into our strategy for structuring information, automating workflows, and ensuring consistency across all projects. Additionally, you'll learn about the benefits of Autodesk Forma as compared to BIM 360, including improved collaboration, increased efficiency, and reduced risk.

The architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry is undergoing a transformation in the way we design and construct our built environment. Two key drivers have been the adoption of digital delivery and building information modeling (BIM), and while these disciplines are often viewed as separate entities, they are, in fact, closely interconnected and mutually reinforcing. With the ability to integrate technology and data-driven insights, project teams can deliver better, faster, and smarter to meet the evolving demands of our stakeholders. In this presentation, we will explore how integrating BIM and digital delivery can result in tangible efficiencies resulting in better decision making and savings in cost and schedule. Using a case study from a major $9 billion transportation project in the United States, we will look at the integration of technology, people, and processes, and how maximizing information management practices, Autodesk Forma, and Autodesk Platform Services can provide the results you need rather than accepting out-of-the-box solutions.

CAD data is the most important intellectual property that a manufacturer has. Autodesk offers products that create, manage, and enrich this data. AutoCAD, Inventor, and Autodesk Fusion 360 software create this data while Vault, Fusion 360 Manage Extension, and Upchain help manage it. The cloud-based Fusion 360 and Autodesk Forma platforms facilitate collaboration within the field, while Prodsmart helps collaboration within production. Simultaneously, aspects of this data need to be shared with other enterprise systems like ERP. Ultimately, all these systems must be able to share aspects of this data throughout the lifecycle of a manufacturer's products. We'll demonstrate, via examples of Autodesk customer projects, how technologies such as Autodesk Platform Services and other third-party technologies make it possible to share this important data between these systems rather than leaving it siloed in different systems.

This will be a discussion about the impact an owner representative and client advocate—who is also a virtual design and construction (VDC) manager—employed specifically for engagement, collaboration, and leadership can have on a project team. We will discuss and evaluate the implementation of Autodesk Forma and VDC processes for internal engineering in a large manufacturing company. We will explore outcomes for project performance. And we'll look at the real implications for architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) teams when there is an active VDC manager acting on behalf of the client needs in context of traditional design and construction project workflows.

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 Forma and beyond.

AutoCAD (& verticals) Plant 3D, and Revit all have different workflows with ACC/BIM 360 projects and the Desktop Connector. After many challenging hours I believe I have finally found a way to explain the various ACC/BIM 360 workflows and would like to share this knowledge with everyone else who's also dealing with all these various workflows and collaboration options. Specifically, I'm going to cover working with Revit, Plant 3D, and Civil 3D (same workflows for AutoCAD) with ACC and/or BIM 360 projects. I'll also cover the Desktop Connector 15 and 16 and the differences we've encountered, good and bad.
