Do you use Autodesk Build? Learn how a well-planned configuration can streamline coordination, improve tracking, and make your projects more efficient.

The Build solution within Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) is a powerful tool to centralize information and ensure the quality of project deliverables. But to truly work to your advantage, it must be configured to fit your workflows and field realities.

At SolidCAD, we support civil engineering firms and contractors every week who want to get the most out of their investment in ACC Build. Our goal is to make the platform work for you, not the other way around.

Why Proper Configuration Matters

A well-configured system allows you to:

• Reduce search and communication delays

• Ensure data consistency

• Improve coordination between office and field teams

• Maintain a clear record of all project decisions

Concrete Examples of What Configuration Can Change

1. Drawings: Quick and Organized Access

With Sheets, your teams can always access the right drawings.

✅ By organizing drawings by discipline, phase, or sector, everyone works with the correct version, saving valuable time.

2. RFIs: Simple and Transparent Tracking

Clearly defined roles and workflows make RFI management much easier.

✅ Everyone knows who creates, reviews, and closes an RFI, and all stakeholders can see real-time progress.

3. Submissions: Centralized Approvals

A properly configured Submissions module unifies the review and approval process.

✅ All documents are stored in one place with a clear, traceable history.

4. Issues: Useful and Accurate Data

By simplifying categories and fields, you make the tool more intuitive.

✅ Teams can document issues more effectively, improving follow-up and resolution.

5. Reports: Automated Insights

Customized and scheduled reports keep you up-to-date effortlessly.

✅ The right data is automatically delivered to the right people.
