Introducing Autodesk Operations Solutions (video: 1:07 min.)

Connected operations. Continuous intelligence.

For years, Autodesk has been delivering operational capabilities through solutions like Autodesk Tandem, Autodesk Tandem Connect, FlexSim, and Fusion Operations.

With the introduction of Autodesk Operations Solutions (AOS), we are bringing these capabilities together. This will help customers operate and optimize their assets and workflows with the same level of intelligence and insight they bring to design and make.

Autodesk to acquire MaintainX, advancing unified platform in operations

Autodesk announced it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire MaintainX, a leading modern maintenance and operations solution.

Autodesk's strategy is to converge design, make, and operate workflows, ensuring data and insights flow seamlessly in a continuous lifecycle. The proposed acquisition of MaintainX is intended to strengthen Autodesk's ability to connect operations workflows with the broader lifecycle, helping teams make faster, more informed decisions over time.

Operational intelligence across the lifecycle

Connected operations

Data alone doesn’t run operations. Connected intelligence does. Autodesk Operations Solutions transforms fragmented operational systems, workflows, and environments into a connected operational layer that helps organizations improve visibility, coordinate teams and assets more effectively, respond faster to change, and continuously improve performance across the lifecycle.

 

By connecting operations, organizations can turn real-world operational insight into smarter decisions and long-term business value.

Lifecycle intelligence

Operations are where the lifecycle learns from the real world. When operational workflows are connected back into Design and Make, real-world performance becomes a continuous source of intelligence that flows across the lifecycle, helping organizations understand what is working, identify what is not, and improve what comes next.

 

Connected operational intelligence helps inform every phase of the lifecycle, enabling organizations to make better decisions, optimize performance, reduce inefficiencies, and adapt quickly across complex assets and environments.

Compounding value

Connected operations create compounding value across the lifecycle. While disconnected systems and siloed workflows limit operational value, Autodesk Operations Solutions connects operational data, systems, and workflows into a unified platform where intelligence can continuously flow across Design, Make, and Operate processes.

 

By connecting digital intent with real-world operational performance, Autodesk Operations Solutions helps organizations improve visibility, coordinate workflows, respond faster to change, and continuously improve reliability, efficiency, and long-term operational value over time.

Contextualized AI

AI is only as intelligent as the operational data, context, and industry expertise behind it. Autodesk Operations Solutions connects data across assets, systems, and workflows to help AI identify risks, predict failures, optimize performance, and support faster, more informed decisions across complex environments, while keeping people in control.

 

As insights flow across design, make, and operate workflows, organizations can improve efficiency, refine processes, extend asset life, and continuously improve operational outcomes.

Connected operations for complex industries

Autodesk Operations Solutions helps organizations across manufacturing, infrastructure, facilities, energy, utilities, transportation, and industrial operations connect operational data, systems, and workflows across the lifecycle.

AOS helps bring operations into focus by creating a connected layer of operational intelligence that links digital intent with operational reality. By connecting information across design, make, and operate workflows, organizations can gain better visibility into operations, improve maintenance and production processes, reduce downtime, respond faster to issues, and make more informed decisions over time.

This connected approach helps organizations improve efficiency, reliability, and long-term asset performance while using real-world operational insight to continuously improve how products, facilities, infrastructure, and environments are designed, built, and operated.
