Autodesk Expands BuildingConnected into EMEA and APAC to Give Global Construction Teams Access to Best-in-Class Bid Management Solution
SAN RAFAEL, Calif., October 13, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Autodesk, Inc. (NASDAQ: ADSK) has announced the global expansion of BuildingConnected, a construction management platform that streamlines and centralizes the bidding process. This innovative solution is now integrated with the Autodesk Construction Cloud builders network, a collaborative ecosystem of construction professionals. Owners and general contractors can now use BuildingConnected to find trade partners, identify the best subcontractors for their projects, and collect and compare bids in one centralized location.
With this international expansion, BuildingConnected is now available in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand, offering construction teams across these regions access to a powerful bid management tool. The platform is designed to replace outdated methods like using Rolodexes and spreadsheets, ensuring that the right teams are in place for any type of construction project, from commercial buildings to data centers and infrastructure developments.
Jim Lynch, Vice President and General Manager of Autodesk Construction Solutions, emphasized the impact of BuildingConnected: “There are over a million construction professionals on the BuildingConnected network in North America alone, with thousands of general contractors and owners actively bidding on projects worth $56 billion each month. By expanding globally, we aim to empower construction firms worldwide with tools that boost productivity and reduce project risks.â€
For estimating teams, BuildingConnected offers automated workflows that save time and improve collaboration throughout the bidding process. Estimators and bid coordinators can leverage the platform’s extensive network of subcontractors, invite them to submit bids, and then use advanced comparison features to evaluate all bids from a single interface, including real-time updates on project costs and bid statuses.
BuildingConnected empowers preconstruction teams by enabling them to:
- Quickly solicit bids using customizable templates and compare them side-by-side
- Track against internal budgets with real-time cost updates
- Collaborate seamlessly with team members and track communications and bid versions
- Export bid packages for transparent communication with project owners
- Gain insights from historical bid data to improve future project performance
In the UK and Ireland, where tendering processes have traditionally been fragmented and inefficient, BuildingConnected offers a streamlined solution. According to Mike Pettinella, Director of EMEA Sales at Autodesk Construction Solutions, “Minimizing data loss during the preconstruction phase is critical for reducing project risk and improving margins. With BuildingConnected, teams can ensure consistent communication and data flow, leading to more efficient and accurate project planning.â€
In Australia and New Zealand, the importance of centralized communication during the tendering process is increasingly recognized. Mark Swann, Construction Manager at Serneke Australia, shared his experience: “Before BuildingConnected, we spent a lot of time chasing emails and updating tender addendums. Now, everything is in one place, making it much easier to track and manage bids efficiently.â€
To help construction professionals in the UK, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand learn more about BuildingConnected and its benefits, Autodesk is hosting webinars. In the UK and Ireland, join us on October 15, 2020, to explore how connected construction and procurement challenges can be addressed.
