In the fast-paced world of construction, time is money. That's why having a seamless flow of data is crucial, eliminating the need for costly rework and delays. Autodesk Construction Cloud is a game-changer in this regard. It revolutionises how we handle construction data, offering a fresh perspective on unifying and utilising it effectively.
Autodesk Construction Cloud eliminates this data rework and is a “fresh rethink on how we unify and consume construction data”. In a shift away from traditional solutions, Autodesk Construction Cloud moves data across a project lifecycle within a common data environment, providing teams with reliable data at the right time.
Autodesk have invested heavily in construction over the past decade and thoughts now turn to how owners can monopolise project data for use for operations, space management and with digital twins. Autodesk Construction Cloud hero products include:
- Docs: a secure common data environment used for document control, versioning and approval workflows.
- BIM Collaborate Pro: accelerates design collaboration and model coordination, capturing design issues and tracking milestones to ensure accountability.
- Takeoff: enables 2D and 3D quantification and tools to help value engineer designs.
- Build: for project managers and field teams, unifies design through to construction data simplifying RFIs and the shop drawing process while underpinned by project schedule and cost controls.
"The process of rebuilding data is where costly errors and delays can occur in projects and efficiencies arise from connected data and workflows.”
No matter the size or value of a construction project, effective management and insights into schedule and cost are paramount in mitigating project risks. This is where Autodesk Construction Cloud truly shines, providing a robust toolkit to support building and infrastructure projects.
Having been in the industry for over three decades, my colleagues and I at Cadpro understand the importance of future-proofing businesses. We've built enduring relationships with our customers, positioning them for long-term success. Construction is a complex and diverse landscape, often characterised by independent operations. However, embracing a connected construction approach benefits everyone involved and fosters a culture of collaboration.
Cadpro is an Autodesk Construction Cloud Elite Partner, providing technical expertise, strategy and implementation support to construction professionals and owners.
In conclusion, Autodesk Construction Cloud is not just a tool but a paradigm shift in handling construction data. It's about efficiency, collaboration, and ultimately, success. Embrace the future of construction with Autodesk Construction Cloud, and let's build smarter.
