In today’s high-stakes construction environment, owners and executive leaders are expected to deliver precision, speed, and accountability — without being buried in day-to-day coordination.

Whether you're overseeing a $25M commercial build or a multi-phase residential project, one thing is clear: visibility and risk control are no longer optional.

That’s where construction management software built for owners comes in.

The Problem: Risk Lives in the Gaps

For many VPs and construction executives, project risk doesn’t come from one big event — it comes from small blind spots that stack up over time:

• A missed document revision here

• A delayed RFI response there

• Subcontractor data that never makes it to your dashboard

• Inconsistent communication between site and office

When those gaps aren’t addressed early, they grow into schedule slips, cost overruns, and scope disputes. And when you're managing multiple large-scale projects, that risk multiplies.

The Solution: Real-Time Oversight with Autodesk Construction Cloud

With Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC), project owners and executives get centralized, real-time visibility across all phases of construction — from design to turnover.

Here’s how ACC helps mitigate risk at the executive level:

• Live dashboards and reports that reflect current status, not last week’s guess

• Version-controlled documents that eliminate confusion across trades

• Schedule tracking tools tied to actual field activity and issue logs

• Owner-approved permissions that allow access to what matters, without clutter

• Seamless handover packages and closeout workflows to reduce post-project friction

Instead of waiting for updates or sifting through scattered emails, your team logs in and sees exactly where the project stands — and where the risks are.

Use Case: What It Looks Like in Action

Let’s say your team is mid-way through a 12-storey mixed-use development. A design change to the mechanical system requires re-routing ductwork through a key corridor.

Without ACC: The new drawing is emailed to a few key trades, but one crew builds off an older version. You catch it late, rework is needed, and the schedule slips by 4 days.

With ACC: The updated model and drawings are uploaded to Autodesk Docs, version-controlled, and linked directly to the impacted floor. The issue is flagged and assigned. Everyone is notified — no guesswork, no rework.

Integrations That Work with Your Workflow

ACC doesn’t force you to ditch your current systems — it enhances them. Whether you're using financial systems like CMiC, document tools like SharePoint, or even Excel trackers, Autodesk Construction Cloud integrates through APIs or partner solutions, giving you one source of truth across your projects.

Designed for Decision-Makers

ACC isn’t just a tool for project managers — it’s designed for owners and executives who need clarity, not clutter. You get the high-level view with the option to drill down, making it easier to:

• Spot risks early

• Ensure accountability across the team

• Make confident, timely decisions
