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.

How to Easily Data Mine Revit, Forma Design Collaboration, and Autodesk Forma for Your Benefits
As we work through projects, there’s a constant generation of information. Unfortunately, we almost never get to see it, much less capture and analyze it, thereby missing many opportunities to inform future projects or help with current ones. Buro Happold is a global engineering firm that's decided to tackle this problem at an enterprise level by finding ways to automatically collect, share, and analyze this constant stream of project information. We've taken a multifaceted approach to mining project data for insights by using a mixture of internally developed tools, Revit software, Forma Design Collaboration, Autodesk Forma, and external tools like Microsoft Power BI and Kinship. This class will cover the methods and strategies that we’re using to mine all the data generated daily by each project. We'll look at how the firm is using the internal BIM Radar tool with mixture of external tools. We'll also discuss how to integrate new tools into project teams, and how to approach enterprise-level adoption and analysis.

Adopt BIM360/Forma in 4 companies using innovative change management methods

Effective cultural and organizational change adoption has become a core competency for firms, in today’s rapidly changing AEC industry. Within VolkerWessels Infrastructure we drive digital transformation to our 4 divisions with a central digital program. In this class we will show how we used a proven changemanagement methodology in a specific adoption approach, in order to implement and adopt BIM360/Forma as a new cloud platform. The adoption approach is based on ADKAR, a changemanagement methodology by Prosci. This enables us to pay attention to communication, sponsors, resistance, instructions, coaching and the return on investment of the change. The effect is digital transformation, improved operational excellence and more 'bang for buck' from IT investments, in Cloud technology like BIM360/Forma. This make change and adoption one of our core competencies. We adopted BIM360/Forma efficiently and successfully in our organization by increasing the aspects of ADKAR to the target audience.

Head in the Cloud and Boots on the Ground 2.0: Enhancing Communication by Deploying 3D Models to the Field with Forma
Last year we explored “easy wins”—how to break down the technical and cultural barriers preventing site teams from accessing and using digital project information. What’s next? This session will pick up where we left off, showcasing how Hansen Yuncken has evolved its approach to fully integrate Autodesk Forma into daily site operations, ensuring the right people have the data they need when they need it. Meaningful use of models during construction continues to be a significant challenge for us as an industry hooked on PDFs and spreadsheets. This year, we’ll dive deeper into the use of 3D model information in the field to connect and visualize data from Autodesk Forma. Considering how the model can be used for more than just “viewing,” we’ll explore curating models for specific tasks such as progress tracking, installation, sequencing, and more. Let’s get creative, challenge perceptions around how construction information is communicated, and start developing the construction workforce of the future!

Visualizing the Future of Nashville Water: The Forma-VR Combo Hits Its Stride in a Massive Collaborative Design Effort
Nashville’s once-in-a-generation water plant upgrade is using cloud tools and virtual reality (VR) to set a new standard for how critical facilities are designed. The ambitious project fits a new modern plant into a complex campus, and, notably, will convert a beautiful 105-year-old filter building into an advanced treatment unit. It will not only establish a climate-resilient water supply for Nashville, but it will also honor the historic site with thoughtful architecture and achieve the highest standards in project Sustainable Design. The design was a multi-year collaborative effort between 10 firms. Autodesk Forma was the cornerstone, with Revit and Civil 3D models brought together daily in a federated Navisworks model. This talk will cover how the live model accessed through Resolve VR empowered all levels of owner staff to engage in project development in ways not otherwise possible—from O&M teams providing frequent detailed input to City officials quickly understanding the site in broad strokes.

Autodesk Forma Design Coordination and Scope Management for Contractors

In this session, we'll showcase the workflows we use with the Autodesk Forma platform on large health projects, including a full end-to-end example of how data is used from Model Checker for Revit, Navisworks 2024 with no file management clash runs, and Autodesk Forma issue creation, as well as tracking scope changes in models using Forma Takeoff. As teams work in Revit, data updates are automatically passed to a central database, combined with Autodesk Forma data, and then sent back to Autodesk Forma as additional Insight Dashboards integrated with existing data to simplify and highlight trends in clashes, and scope changes during the tendering and construction phase. We will also present some additional tools we've been using to close resolved clash issues automatically. And we'll show our additional Revit building information modeling (BIM) file which contains zones, levels, and rooms to support tracked changes to scope in takeoff with data trending. Finally, we will present a simple way to extract all parameters using Autodesk Forma asset model extraction for handover.

Architects Can Build Too: The Collaborative Power of Forma and Forma Build
Many people look at Autodesk Forma, especially the Forma Build platform, and believe it's only for the construction industry. However, many design disciplines that work with the construction industry use the Autodesk Forma platform, especially architectural/design firms. While Forma Build is ideally set up to be a more collaborative workflow, that doesn't mean it has to be used in that way. This session will show you how our architectural firm uses different aspects of Forma Build before and during construction. We'll cover how our firm went from a dual-input, multiprogram workflow to using Forma Build for specific field workflows. We'll cover the tools we use in Forma Build and how we use custom forms and reports to get the output to look the way we want it to look. By using Forma Build workflows, we'll explain how we became more efficient in capturing data, and how we get the appropriate information into the hands of our construction partners in hours instead of days.
