Switching to Autodesk Construction Cloud: What You Need to Know

Switching construction platforms is an opportunity to unlock better data integration, improved collaboration, and stronger long-term ROI. But migrations are never plug and play. They require thoughtful planning, the right tools, and an experienced partner to ensure success.

That’s where SolidCAD comes in.

Why Companies Move to ACC

Many firms start their digital journey on one system but quickly realize they need a solution that scales with their business, connects across the entire project lifecycle, and integrates seamlessly with the tools they already use.

With Autodesk Construction Cloud, organizations gain:

• Centralized Data Environment: Break down silos and manage project data in a single source of truth.

• Advanced Collaboration: Real-time collaboration between design, office, and field teams.

• Full Lifecycle Coverage: From design to handover, ACC supports the entire construction workflow.

• Integration with Autodesk Tools: Native connection with AutoCAD, Revit, Civil 3D, and Navisworks.

• Flexible Growth: ACC adapts as digital maturity and project complexity increase.

What Migration Really Involves

Migrating to ACC is not a simple lift and shift. Each platform structures data differently, which means careful preparation is needed to ensure information is retained and usable. Key steps include:

Data Mapping

Every dataset must be aligned between systems so that information carries over accurately. Because capabilities and APIs evolve, the focus is on preserving essential project data without assuming a one-to-one transfer.

Data Structuring and Cleaning

Historical project data often includes duplications, inconsistent naming conventions, or incomplete records. Our team normalizes and restructures this information so it can be imported seamlessly into ACC.

Configuration Alignment

Forms, workflows, and permissions differ across platforms. We make sure your processes and data align with Autodesk’s configuration model.

Migration Execution

Using custom-built tools, we extract, transform, and load project data into ACC with validation checks to ensure accuracy.

Testing and Validation

Once the data is in ACC, our consultants work with your team to confirm accuracy and validate workflows before go-live.
