CAD data is the most important intellectual property that a manufacturer has. Autodesk offers products that create, manage, and enrich this data. AutoCAD, Inventor, and Autodesk Fusion 360 software create this data while Vault, Fusion 360 Manage Extension, and Upchain help manage it. The cloud-based Fusion 360 and Autodesk Construction Cloud platforms facilitate collaboration within the field, while Prodsmart helps collaboration within production. Simultaneously, aspects of this data need to be shared with other enterprise systems like ERP. Ultimately, all these systems must be able to share aspects of this data throughout the lifecycle of a manufacturer's products. We'll demonstrate, via examples of Autodesk customer projects, how technologies such as Autodesk Platform Services and other third-party technologies make it possible to share this important data between these systems rather than leaving it siloed in different systems.

In this session, we'll showcase how a web application, built on top of Autodesk Platform Services and our local database, can optimize the design process, improve CO2e footprint assessment, and enhance collaboration among clients and stakeholders. Using this web application enables clients to efficiently simulate design modifications, making well-informed decisions that effectively minimize both the cost and time associated with CO2e emissions. This ultimately leads to a more streamlined and sustainable design process.

Recent news of artificial intelligence (AI) advances have us all wondering how our professions will change. Committed to driving future-ready innovation, WSP Digital Solutions engaged with Autodesk Research to explore the potential of AI-assisted automated structural design after seeing a prototype at Autodesk University 2019. In this class, you'll see how we worked together to understand the technology's promise and how to use it effectively. We'll describe the possible benefits we identified, from more-meaningful, agile engagements with architects in early design phases through assistive technology that automates away tedious tasks and helps explore more options ("rapid optioneering"), to surfacing sustainability trade-offs when most impactful decisions can be made. We'll also address the fears around this digital transformation. Finally, we will share how our unique collaboration came to be, and how you too can engage with Autodesk to prepare for and shape the future of work and the world of tomorrow.

At AECOM we're embracing automation, and we're doing so at SCALE! This session will dive deep into the detail of how we set up our global "Automation Factory,” an internal program that will create dozens of automation tools to be used across the whole of our global business. This will include how to identify what opportunities to pursue versus which to pass on, how to create tools that are usable by the masses instead of the few, and what tools, technologies, and partners you need to help make these efforts a success. If you're creating tools, leading digital transformation efforts, or if you just want to know more about how to automate successfully at scale, this class is for you.

Engagement with building designers indicates high levels of enthusiasm for using Revit software at different stages to analyze carbon emissions, from concept to detailed design. However, challenges remain in defining modeling practices that facilitate fast and accurate analysis. One solution to this is the Revit Energy Analytical Model, which allows us to analyze carbon while we design our buildings. While the Revit Energy Analytical Model is an intelligent method to transform architectural models into analytical information, the setup and model view can be unintuitive, and can be impacted by modeling practices. Join Autodesk and FenestraPro to learn about workflows and tools that simplify this process, and hear how they worked together to resolve many of these challenges. FenestraPro, a leading Autodesk Partner, has engaged with designers globally and developed tools that provide intuitive pathways for facade design in Revit software, empowering designers to understand carbon emissions throughout the design process.

Autodesk Fusion Manage software helps users make data-driven decisions by keeping data consistent and enforcing processes. With all the data that Fusion Manage can track, we need a way to see what the data means and what's happening. Fusion Manage has built-in reporting features, but they may not always show the data the way you want or need. You can use Microsoft Power BI with your Fusion Manage tenant to get more options for how to display your data and who can access it. In this session, we'll show you how to use Autodesk Platform Services and R script to get data from all your Fusion Manage workspaces and create reports and dashboards for different users in your company. The R script we use in this class came from a previous AU presentation for BIM 360 software, but we've updated it for Fusion Manage and V2 authentication.

This case study explores how we automatically ingested Autodesk Construction Cloud building information modeling (BIM) content (3D model, drawings, docs) using generative AI, knowledge graph technologies, and SAP gateways to automatically generate assets in SAP. This smart handover provides operations with an adapted data framework enabling rapid information contextualization to support any field engineering or maintenance problem-solving activities. In this POV—executed in collaboration with Autodesk, Capgemini, and Cognite—we've explored solutions to the two following business problems: How do we reduce the postdelivery bottleneck of asset creation in SAP from 12 months to less than one month, enabling bidirectional updates between SAP and BIM data sources? How do we reduce downtime and improve reliability by decreasing the response time following an event by 70%–80%? And how do we eliminate the burden of manual data gathering (contextualization) across multiple siloed systems and provide co-pilot support (generative AI) to summarize and correlate data sources?
