Ted Jennings, Senior VDC Manager at Barton Malow Holdings, commented, "Our teams require the right technology to deliver exceptional outcomes. By merging the strengths of BIM 360 and PlanGrid and adding advanced project management tools, Autodesk Build strikes a balance between simplicity and robustness. Connecting our teams and data across projects allows us to streamline document, safety, and cost management, ensuring we meet our quality standards."
Autodesk Build empowers construction teams with the ability to:
- **Efficiently manage projects** - Teams can customize workflows within Autodesk Build, allowing stakeholders like project managers to access critical information such as RFIs, submittals, meeting minutes, and daily reports at any project stage. This ensures that relevant workflow data is always at their fingertips, enabling them to analyze activities and make data-driven decisions to keep projects on schedule. All project workflows' information is immediately linked in Autodesk Docs, the common data environment (CDE), simplifying overall project management.
- **Enhance cross-team collaboration** - Autodesk Build fosters real-time collaboration between the field and office, allowing teams to manage project quality from desktops, laptops, and mobile devices. The PlanGrid Build app, specifically designed for mobile field collaboration and included in Autodesk Build, empowers the field to stay updated on quality planning, punchlists, issue management, and perform quality assurance and control tasks. Both field and office teams can manage safety planning, training, observations, and inspections via the Autodesk Build platform, keeping jobsites productive and safe.
- **Digitize and centralize document management** - Autodesk Build streamlines document management and provides a single source of truth, ensuring all team members across the construction project lifecycle can access the required information whenever needed, regardless of their location—whether in the office or on-site. Features like document control, versioning, and approval capabilities for 2D sheets, 3D models, and easily shareable markups help maintain consistency and reduce miscommunication and costly errors that can lead to rework.
- **Simplify cost management** - The configurable and interconnected cost management module in Autodesk Build assists teams in tracking budget changes from a central location. Teams can manage budget creation, contract administration, change orders, cost forecasts, and payment applications alongside a real-time view of project health to make informed decisions and mitigate risks to project costs.
As part of the Autodesk Construction Cloud, a subscription to Autodesk Build is bolstered by:
- **Autodesk Docs** - A centralized document management solution that forms the backbone of Autodesk Build's CDE, offering users seamless navigation and integrated workflows to create a single source of truth across the project lifecycle.
- **Insights** - Analytics capabilities that support the collection, interpretation, and export of project data, including Construction IQ artificial intelligence to identify and mitigate risks.
- **Administration** - Project setup tools including centralized user management and permissioning capabilities, templates, and single sign-on.
"Our customers need to connect workflows throughout the construction project management lifecycle," said Stephanie Ho, Global Head of Customer Success at Autodesk Construction Solutions. "For Autodesk Build, we've built a solid, cohesive foundation that not only fulfills the vision of connected construction but also scales with our customers' growth. They can depend on Autodesk Build to manage their workflows more efficiently and leverage data collected across their teams to drive continuous improvement."
