Align teams from feasibility through construction with quality data

What is Autodesk Datum?

Autodesk Datum is a full asset lifecycle management tool. Datum allows users to specify, connect, and validate asset information throughout the project lifecycle. Datum decouples asset information with the models, meaning both non-model and model data are supported.

Datum manages information requirements, data standards, change tracking, and progressive assurance to ensure data is trusted. While Datum is not a data exchange, the tool helps ensure all exchanged data is valid, structured, and can be used, reused, and is reported in a consistent format to meet stakeholder expectations.
