(Updated Nov. 20 to include new information on Model Coordination) As we kick off one of our most exciting weeks of the year, bringing together over 10,000 customers and partners at Autodesk University 2018, we’re taking a moment to reflect on the incredible progress made in BIM 360 over the past year. This year has been packed with innovation—33 major releases, more than 130 new features, and 60 new software integrations have all contributed to a fast-paced development cycle that’s driven by our commitment to our customers. Together, we're building tools that streamline construction workflows, centralize project data for all stakeholders, and open up new possibilities through better access and analysis of project information.  The Next-Generation BIM 360 Platform Last November, we announced the preview of the next-generation BIM 360 platform—a complete re-engineering of our BIM 360 products onto a unified data platform. This integration connects design and construction processes, teams, and data into one cohesive system. Today, customers are leveraging BIM 360 to power critical workflows like: We're excited to announce that we're adding support for another essential construction workflow—Cost Management. This new feature brings contracts, budgets, and change orders into the BIM 360 ecosystem, offering real-time financial visibility. It will be available as a limited pre-release in December, and interested customers can reach out for more details. New cost management capabilities in BIM 360 add powerful change management workflows and reduce risk by enabling teams to manage all cost related construction activities in a single software experience, providing real-time visibility into the financial health of the project.  Forge and an Open Platform BIM 360 isn’t just about streamlining core AEC workflows—it’s also built on Forge, enabling a collaborative environment within the broader software ecosystem. Since launching the BIM 360 Integration Partner Program last year, we've added 60 new integrations, growing our partner ecosystem to over 100 companies. Today, BIM 360 connects with 3DR, DESTINI Estimator, BuilderBox, EarthCam, Egnyte, FotoIn, HoloBuilder, SiteSense, NoteVault, OnTarget, Pype.io, Sensara, Triax, and many others in development. BIM 360 supports a robust partner ecosystem that we are building out through our own software development efforts and through key investments, integrations and partnerships.  These integrations help create a single source of truth, allowing customers to tap into insights from across their construction tech stack. We’ve also made strategic investments through the Forge Fund in companies like eSUB, ManufactOn, Smartvid.io, Rhumbix, and Project Frog—each delivering innovative cloud-based solutions that enhance construction workflows. Our biggest acquisition this year was Assemble Systems. Combined with Revit’s rich data, Assemble enables 4D and 5D estimating and scheduling, helping teams plan, bid, and execute projects more efficiently. Their SaaS solution makes it easier to use BIM data across the entire project lifecycle, reducing challenges during design, preconstruction, and on-site execution. Model Coordination BIM 360 now offers advanced model coordination features that automate clash detection and resolution. Here’s what you can expect: Before these updates, BIM 360 already supported model aggregation, automatic clash detection, and clash visualization—key elements of model coordination since the initial preview. Now, the platform is even more powerful, especially when compared to traditional apps that may only offer basic 3D viewing or rely on third-party tools. Model coordination is a high-value workflow for general contractors, subcontractors, and fabricators, and it's essential throughout the project lifecycle—from design to installation. While we continue to solve today’s challenges, we’re also looking ahead. We're exploring the use of predictive analytics early in the coordination phase to prevent costly RFIs and change orders before they happen. With machine learning already improving safety and quality in BIM 360, we’re ready to bring similar benefits to model coordination. Connected Data Is the Path to Predictability Digitizing processes and centralizing data is the key to achieving predictability. BIM 360 was built from the ground up to bring all your project data together—starting with the Revit model, expanding through preconstruction and fabrication, and capturing on-site insights for real-time decision-making. By connecting data from start to finish, BIM 360 transforms raw information into actionable insights through: The BIM 360 platform, along with its deep integration with Autodesk’s authoring tools, helps customers centralize, organize, and optimize their projects from beginning to end. This connected approach leads to greater predictability, driving automation, integration, and continuous improvement across the entire project lifecycle.
