Autodesk Forma: Our vision for a connected AECO industry
At Autodesk, we have a long history of helping our customers embrace technological change. From the early days of moving from drafting tables to computers with AutoCAD in 1982, to introducing modeling-based design and building information modeling (BIM) with Revit in 2002, we've continually evolved to meet the needs of the architecture, engineering, construction, and operations (AECO) industry.
Recently, we expanded the value of BIM by connecting architects and engineers to a shared Revit model in the cloud through the Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC), enabling collaboration across all project stakeholders. However, the AECO industry is changing rapidly—expanding urbanization is increasing demand, complex projects are straining timelines and budgets, and talent shortages are creating pressure on already stretched teams.
These challenges aren’t going away, so BIM as we know it must evolve. Too much data gets lost or recreated between the different phases of a project—planning, design, build, and operate. That’s why we believe connected data will help our customers overcome these challenges. The goal is to make it easier to move data between stakeholders, connect workflows, build intelligent processes, maintain a single source of truth in the cloud, and deliver what customers like Arco are asking for.
As Richard Hogan, Project Lead & Architect at ARCO Architecture Company, said, “The architect’s workflow has evolved over hundreds of years. Now we’re entering a world that is data rich. We must evolve our workflow to create better performing, more sustainable buildings that fit into our cities.â€
We're investing today to transform tomorrow. At Autodesk, we're excited to introduce Autodesk Forma, the industry cloud for AECO. It will reimagine BIM by leveraging next-generation technology to connect data, teams, and workflows, enabling more collaborative and concurrent ways of working. This is a big step forward in how we support the AECO industry.
On May 8, we’ll launch the first set of capabilities with Autodesk Forma, marking the beginning of a multi-year journey. The initial offering will leverage Spacemaker’s powerful AI engine to deliver new conceptual design capabilities, predictive analytics, and automations. This will empower planning and design teams to digitally deliver projects with outcomes in mind from day one, setting a solid foundation for all subsequent project phases.
With bi-directional data exchange, you'll be able to work fluidly between Revit and Forma, between initial planning and detailed design, and between the cloud and desktop. This will improve project performance while designing and give architects the agility to work iteratively rather than sequentially—a significant shift in how projects are approached.
We will continue to invest in Revit, as we have with today’s release. The new features in Revit 2024 are essential for your daily work, and they lay the groundwork for the upcoming launch of Autodesk Forma.
With your data, teams, and processes connected in the cloud, you can make better decisions earlier in projects. You can harness AI, machine learning, and the Internet of Things to speed up processes, reduce errors, and predict and solve problems before they happen.
As our customers like Richard Hogan recognize, this represents a big cultural shift for the profession, but the rewards of embracing data and the cloud are well worth it. Join us on May 8 for the launch event where we’ll reveal the first set of Forma capabilities and bring together industry leaders to discuss how data will shape the future of architecture practices.
