At the Connect & Construct Summit 2019 that proceeded the kickoff of Autodesk University 2019 in Las Vegas, NV Autodesk, Inc. officially introduced the general public availability of the Autodesk Construction Cloud.
The Autodesk Construction Cloud brings together Assemble, BuildingConnected’s Bid Board, BIM 360 Tools, PlanGrid, and Trade Trap with the host of Autodesk design authoring tools.

Autodesk Construction Cloud is an integrated construction management solution that combines advanced technology, industry’s largest network of builders and powerful predictive insights to improve collaboration, reduce risk and increase profitability.
The Autodesk Construction Cloud is an integrated construction management solution that connects people and data across the entire building lifecycle from design through operations.
Autodesk Construction Cloud includes three core elements that give construction companies a competitive advantage in the industry:
Advanced Technology:
Best-in-class software solutions built for simplicity and power — uniting headquarters, office and field teams from design through construction and operations. This includes 50+ new enhancements and makes data flow with integrations across all products.
- Expanding support within Assemble for the latest version of Autodesk design tools AutoCAD, Revit and Navisworks.
- Empowering subcontractors to immediately quantify 2D views in BuildingConnected BidBoard Pro.
- Enabling greater collaboration, field teams can now take videos directly within the PlanGrid app. Along with improved photo management, teams are able to provide richer commentary from the jobsite.
- Enhancing all BIM 360 modules, along with deeper feature integrations – such as between Construction IQ and BIM 360's design review capabilities, called Design Risk Management, which helps reduce the likelihood of RFIs and change orders originating from design issues.
Over the past 18 months, Autodesk rolled out 18 different integrations, allowing data to flow between all its construction products. These include integrations between Revit and PlanGrid, BuildingConnected and PlanGrid, BIM 360 and Assemble, and BIM 360 Design and Civil 3D,. This effort also includes the new Connector for ArcGIS in collaboration with ESRI.
Built with BIM 360's common data environment (CDE), Autodesk Construction Cloud ensures the whole team is collaborating on an integrated record set., Autodesk is investing beyond the current capabilities to support Autodesk customers in meeting ISO-19650 requirements.
Builders Network:
The industry's largest network of owners, designers, builders and trades, enabling each to connect with the right partners and projects.
Autodesk Construction Cloud encompasses the industry's largest ecosystem of owners, designers, builders and trades, including nearly one million subcontractors who use BuildingConnected. The Builders Network enables owners and builders to connect to the right partners to create the best teams for any project anywhere — reducing risk, decreasing rework and increasing profitability.
Predictive Insights:
AI-driven analysis of previously siloed project data provides builders with powerful insights to predict outcomes and reduce risk.
Autodesk Construction Cloud encompasses powerful artificial intelligence that helps construction teams identify and mitigate risks before problems occur — helping to reduce delays, rework and cost. Technology such as TradeTapp, which arms general contractors with subcontractor risk analysis during the planning phase, and Construction IQ, which uses algorithms to prioritize the highest risk projects, subcontractors and issues that need attention during the build phase, gives teams the insight and confidence to make informed decisions and build right the first time.
