Questions like: Can owners and operators optimize their assets today and cut future costs? Can design and engineering teams share data without losing intellectual property? Can electrical engineers adopt new tools and workflows to design for a renewable energy future?
Three major questions. One resounding answer: Yes.
At Autodesk University (AU) 2022, we unveiled advancements that will boost collaboration and unify workflows across teams responsible for designing, constructing, and managing the built environment. Keep reading to learn more.
Extending the Value of BIM for Owners and Operators
Data is becoming a key business asset. Yet, 95%[1] of all data remains unused in engineering and construction.
Autodesk Tandem leverages BIM data to identify and locate assets, enabling digital transformation for owners by integrating disjointed operational systems within a 3D environment or digital twin.
Last year, we launched our digital twin solution, Autodesk Tandem, as an outcome of the BIM process. This year, we’re enhancing Tandem’s digital twin capabilities to monitor facility operations. Customers can now link Tandem to operational systems and data to create a digital twin that offers insights for reducing costs and improving occupant experiences. For instance, Tandem will connect to building management systems and environmental sensors to constantly monitor a facility's energy consumption. This information can guide decisions on adjustments that maximize energy savings without compromising occupant comfort.
The public beta for Tandem Facility Monitoring is coming soon.
BIM Insights and Asset Operations Come Together in One Digital Management Solution
The post-pandemic shift to remote work has pushed building owners and operators to maximize value and improve facility efficiency. According to analyst firm Verdantix, 30% of facility executives prioritize cost reduction, while 22% focus on decarbonizing their building portfolios. That’s why Autodesk partnered with iOffice + SpaceIQ to enable smarter facilities and better decision-making, empowering the industry to lower costs and reduce carbon footprints.
iOffice + SpaceIQ represents the industry’s most comprehensive suite for integrated workplace and enterprise asset management solutions, focusing on the operational and performance aspects of the building lifecycle. Archibus is their integrated workplace management system (IWMS) software.
The new Archibus and Autodesk AEC Collection Bundle deeply integrates BIM, building operations, and workplace software for centralized data management. This helps building owners and operators extract more value from their BIM data both upstream and downstream. They can derive important insights using design and construction data in their building operations and leverage operational data in future design decisions.
This alliance strengthens Autodesk’s capabilities for operational building management, providing better support for customers throughout the building lifecycle.
Info360 Plant Brings Operational and Analytical Platform to Water Industry
In the age of climate change, water and energy conservation aren’t optional—they’re essential. According to the EPA, municipalities and utilities could save up to 30% on energy costs by incorporating energy efficiency practices into water and wastewater treatment plants, leading to improved sustainability.
With Info360 Plant, Autodesk is building on our commitment to a more secure water future. We’re expanding the operational and maintenance insights of the Info360 platform to water and wastewater treatment facilities.
Info360 Plant is a cloud-based operational analytics platform specifically designed for the water industry by water experts. It provides real-time, automated, actionable analysis and insights to uncover and resolve issues with justifiable data.
Info360 Plant uses the power of digital twins to help plant operations teams deliver clean water, reduce their carbon footprint, manage and mitigate operational risks, cut operating expenses, ensure compliance, and justify facility improvement projects.
Increased Cloud Collaboration
We’re also continuing to invest in cloud collaboration and coordination for AEC customers to help optimize design workflows, detect issues early in the design process, and speed up project delivery times to reduce risks, costs, and achieve better project outcomes.
Intellectual Property Stays Protected with Advancements to Project Sharing
The anytime, anywhere collaboration and project management of Autodesk BIM Collaborate Pro help design teams work better with their construction partners and owner clients. But while data sharing is great, oversharing isn’t ideal.
Using the Bridge tool in Autodesk Construction Cloud, released in March and available to any user of Autodesk Docs, Autodesk Build, Autodesk BIM Collaborate, Autodesk BIM Collaborate Pro, and Autodesk Takeoff, engineers can control what they share across projects and accounts.
Bridge enables cross-collaboration between accounts, allowing firms to establish their project information in their own account and share it in a controlled manner, eliminating errors and reducing project risks. Today, files and sheets can be shared using Bridge, and we're working on adding support for packages from Design Collaboration. This level of project control lets users keep their data in their account or project and prevents external stakeholders from accessing it prematurely.
Enabling Better Organization and Collaboration for Civil 3D
Data management and collaboration are crucial for complex civil engineering projects. BIM Collaborate Pro leads the way in how civil engineers collaborate across project teams using the power of the cloud. With the upcoming Desktop Connector, collaborators can access the appropriate Civil 3D project data on a web browser or their local machine more quickly than ever before. No matter where you work, you’ll always have the most up-to-date information on your projects.
When you're ready to create production deliverables, you can now generate Civil 3D and AutoCAD sheet sets for drawings in the Autodesk Construction Cloud using the new cloud-first Sheet Set Manager. With the launch of the new and improved Sheet Set Manager, users can more efficiently manage and edit their documentation deliverables. This allows users to create, remove, reorder, and make edits to existing sheets. Improved collaboration support enables publishing directly to PDF and the ability to share drawings with external stakeholders—all from the cloud.
Mobile Access Connects the Office to the Field
Communication and coordination hiccups between the office and field can hamper productivity and contribute to over $280 billion[2] in annual rework expenses in the U.S.
The PlanGrid Build mobile app, available to Autodesk Docs, Autodesk BIM Collaborate, and Autodesk BIM Collaborate Pro users, helps close the information gap and enables project teams to make critical decisions faster. Teams using Autodesk BIM Collaborate Pro and Autodesk Docs can access the most up-to-date project information, navigate models in 3D, and check the status of issues—all in one place.
With the new AutoCAD Web subscription, field teams can review the latest designs from their laptop or mobile device. Teams can also view designs stored in Autodesk Docs, Autodesk Drive, and other leading cloud storage providers and collaborate with the office through the Trace feature. Trace allows you to review and add feedback directly to DWG files without altering the existing drawing.
Web and mobile support like this ensures the right information reaches the right people at the right time, keeping teams synchronized through all phases of the project lifecycle, regardless of location.
Teaming Up for Sustainability
Climate change is driving innovation in energy generation, storage, and consumption. By 2040, 40%[3] of the energy we use will come from renewables. And industry-disrupting forces demand paradigm-shifting solutions.
Recognizing the challenge, Autodesk teamed up with Schneider Electric to develop an electrical engineering design solution that integrates directly with Revit, creating a more complete and robust software that simplifies electrical design, analysis, and equipment sizing with real-time calculations in a single BIM platform.
Advanced Electrical Design for Revit now extends the benefits of BIM to electrical engineers and designers, streamlining their work and filling critical gaps in BIM-based workflows. Engineers and designers can now work in one environment to develop designs that meet local and regional standards, increase efficiency by eliminating repetitive data entry across multiple platforms, and simplify the design process with dynamically linked diagrams and automated reporting. This comprehensive and connected workflow improves execution, reduces waste and project timelines, controls costs, and optimizes energy efficiency.
The Advanced Electrical Design solution will empower electrical engineers to drive long-term digital transformation, providing greater value to customers on their journey into the new energy landscape—a necessity for a sustainable future.
