Given that margins in construction are already tight—approximately 6%—we know that the news of rising costs paired with the ongoing labor shortage isn’t an ideal environment for protecting your bottom line.
Autodesk Construction Cloud centralizes the management of your projects’ cost-related activities in the cloud, giving your teams a single source of truth.
Elevate an RFI or Issue to PCO to reference cost data in meeting minutes. Contracts, payment applications, and expenses can also be managed from one solution. Plus, information is automatically synced in the budget overview, which shows how your budget is tracking against the plan.
All to say that Autodesk Construction Cloud surfaces the right cost information at the right time, so you can make necessary forecasts and adjustments to stay on track
In ACC for instance, you can customize the terminology throughout the software, so your tool & tab names align with the terms you use in your company. The connected construction platform also supports custom budget structures, enabling you to set up detailed hierarchical build-ups & custom segment options. And with segment code samples & budget code previews, you’re able to ensure accuracy in your budget management.
The platform also streamlines reviews & approvals through custom decision-based workflows for contracts, change orders, pay apps, & expenses. When documents are ready for review, you receive an automated email ensuring that users approve them in a timely manner.
Decisions made using “bad data” are estimated to have cost the global construction industry $88.69 billion in rework alone.
When cost and schedule data is connected, you can view real time updates and make better forecasts. The Gantt chart view in ACC makes it easy to plan time-based allowances; you’re able to connect scheduled tasks to budget line items to determine their duration and calculate price changes.
ACC makes it simple to forecast how much cash you’ll need at different points throughout the project, which then lets you make the necessary adjustments to ensure you remain profitable.
Tracking project performance (ideally in real time) enables you to quickly spot areas of inefficiency, which means you’re able to take corrective actions and optimize profitability.
This is another area where ACC cloud shines. The platform’s performance tracking capabilities sync data from third-party apps into Autodesk Construction Cloud’s cost management tool to connect productivity and cost data.
ACC integrates with leading cost and project management solutions—including Riskcast, STRUXI, Rhumbix, QuickBooks Time, and ClickUp—to give you visibility into your progress and help you identify what you need to do to stay on track.
Most construction firms use ERP systems to manage essential cost-related areas, including accounting and procurement.
By connecting your critical financial data between accounting and operations you can ensure that manual processes and duplicate data entry get eliminated and processes become streamlined. Autodesk Construction Cloud offers both direct and seamless integrations with leading ERP solutions, so stakeholders have better access to data, thus facilitating communication and empowering teams to make profitable decisions.
