Closer to home: Now you can store Build, Takeoff and Estimate project data in the UK, Germany, India, Japan, and Canada

New Autodesk Regional Offerings help us better meet customer preferences and local data requirements.

Digital transformation is driving growth for our architecture, engineering, construction, and operations (AECO) customers. They’re seeing investments deliver 50% improvements in everything from productivity and innovation to customer satisfaction and company reputation, according to the 2025 State of Design & Make report

For many, the next big step in digital transformation is moving to the cloud, where it’s easier to collaborate and gain data insights that help them expand their businesses. This shift has presented a growing demand for regionalization to better meet customer preferences and requirements. 

To give our customers greater choice and control over their project data, we have released the following regional offerings:

    We are excited to announce that adding to this list of products are Autodesk Build, Autodesk Takeoff, Autodesk Estimate, and the AEC data model. Included in the AEC data model are the AEC Data Model API, Autodesk Parameters Service, and Parameters API. These powerful tools are designed to enhance construction management and estimation workflows, providing even greater value to our AECO customers. 

    Autodesk Build integrates project management, quality, safety, and cost management workflows in a single solution, promoting collaboration and delivering actionable insights. It helps teams stay on track, reduce errors, and drive efficiencies across every phase of a construction project. 

    Autodesk Takeoff enables accurate quantification for construction projects, helping estimators quickly and confidently create detailed takeoffs. By centralizing data and streamlining the estimation process, Takeoff improves accuracy and boosts productivity, ultimately driving more successful project outcomes. 

    Autodesk Estimate is a cloud-based estimating solution designed for general contractors and subcontractors. It connects 2D and 3D takeoffs to costs, materials, and labor calculations, to produce more accurate estimates and winning proposals—all within a single, powerful platform. Autodesk Estimate helps your teams save time, win more work and control costs for maximum profitability through a collaborative preconstruction experience. 

    The AEC Data Model API is a powerful tool that enables granular data access to your AEC data stored in the cloud via Autodesk Docs.  With this  API, you can extract data from Revit files without needing the whole file. Once data is extracted you are able to do all sorts of things like automations, visualizations, and AI-powered experiences. Included in the AEC data model offering is also the Autodesk Parameters Service and the Parameters API.  Here’s a little more information about each of those. 

    • Autodesk Parameters Service: the Autodesk Parameters Services is a cloud service that offers robust capabilities to help you create and manage parameters for products like Revit and Autodesk Construction Cloud. 
    • Parameters API: this API enables you or your customers to organize parameters using Labels and Collections with powerful metadata and search capabilities. 

    The UK, Germany, India, Japan, and Canada locations are now operational alongside existing Autodesk Regional Offerings in the United States, European Union, and Australia. 

    And they build on our commitment to enabling our customers’ digital transformation. 

    Our Autodesk Regional Offerings are supported by Amazon Web Services (AWS). 

    “AWS delivers the secure, resilient, and high-performance cloud infrastructure that powers Autodesk’s regional offerings across the globe. By leveraging our global footprint—including new regions in the UK, Germany, India, Japan, and Canada—Autodesk enables AECO customers to meet local regulatory requirements while providing them with the tools they need to thrive in a data-driven future,” said Colin Lazier, vice president of Databases at AWS. “Together, we’re helping customers accelerate their digital transformation with confidence, wherever they build.” 

    Building the future of design and make 

    This work is incredibly important in delivering on the promise of Autodesk’s Design and Make Platform as the accelerant to digital transformation. 

    Across all the tools and offerings on our platform, we are committed to high standards for security, privacy, resiliency, and recoverability, so customers can trust their data is secure, protected, and resilient. 

    The future of the AECO industry is being built on data. By expanding our global footprint of regional offerings and adding valuable products like Build and Takeoff, we’re empowering even more customers to be ready for this future. And we’re just getting started.
