CAD and BIM have long served as the foundational design and construction documentation —but their utility often ends at project handoff. What if it didn’t? Indoor GIS is a floor-aware system of record for visualizing, analyzing, and managing facilities and collection of buildings. This session will demonstrate how to extend the life of CAD and BIM data into an indoor GIS, and empower CAD, BIM and GIS practitioners to build a Digital Workplace for building operations. Learn about the role of CAD and BIM integrations with GIS to fuel these workflows. See how to import design data into ArcGIS Indoors to map assets and manage spaces, enable real-time navigation with ArcGIS IPS, and equip facilities’ staff with mobile tools for asset inspections and maintenance. Whether new to GIS or looking to modernize facility operations workflows, this session provides you with guidance and examples to convert CAD and BIM data into Digital Workplaces that support asset and space management.

Our session will show how Autodesk Forma was implemented and governed on a live health care project, adapting workflows to project-specific needs. We will demonstrate the application of standards during active delivery to maintain consistency and data integrity while teams adopt the platform and evolve digital practices in real time. You'll learn how collaboration was structured across Autodesk, construction technology, operations, and BIM by deploying two Autodesk Forma Build projects to separate design coordination from construction execution, alongside targeted training. We'll also cover license provisioning, role-based access, content ownership alignment, and Power BI dashboards that deliver actionable insights for better decisions.

Utilities managing combined sewer systems are increasingly challenged to reduce overflow events while controlling capital costs. This presentation highlights how the InfoWorks ICM hydraulic model was used as the foundation for advanced system optimization in the SUEZ SEVESC wastewater network in the western suburbs of Paris. The calibrated InfoWorks ICM model enabled detailed simulation of network performance across a range of storm events, forming the analytical backbone for decision-making. Building on this, Optimizer (by Optimatics) was integrated to systematically evaluate thousands of operational and infrastructure scenarios, including regulator settings, pump operations, and real-time control (RTC) strategies.

Hear from a panel of top firms including Jacobs, Tetra Tech, IDOM and HDR as they share best practices on building the human intelligence and knowledge infrastructure layer across the AI-enabled tech stack. Learn how to elevate human plus agentic AI workflows to close digital skills gaps to realize the ROI of improved performance, reduced rework and risk and a competitive edge to win more bids. Imagine the AI-powered digital adoption platform where information from trusted sources is instantly converted into consumable and actionable knowledge, personalized for every learner and delivered in the flow of work through mainstream applications connecting the field and office. GeT tangible data on knowledge gaps and skills matrices through organized learning content and skills challenges aligned with company workflows and project standards. Drive tech adoption at scale with AI-powered "just enough, just in time, and just for me" verified knowledge because the best training is training your way. GeT IT Your Way.

If you've ever opened 35 DWGs one at a time to extract corridors, surfaces, and pipe networks for Navisworks software, you know the pain file locks, memory ceilings, and a week of clicking. Then the design updates and you start again. This session will cover the batch-processing of Civil 3D models headlessly scanning, extracting, and exporting without opening the UI. The pipeline includes: a Microsoft Excel manifest, headless discovery, solid extraction, surface meshing, pipe transfer, property attachment, and export via AcCoreConsole. We'll also cover the five approaches that failed Explode destroying pipe intelligence, ConvertToSolid crashing headless databases, wBlock corrupting styles, zero-triangle access violations, and PropertySet zombie objects. Each one cost days.

Dynamo scripts, Autodesk Assistant, Model Context Protocol (MCP) plug-ins, and embedded agents are four fundamentally different approaches to AI in Revit all promising productivity, none interchangeable. This session is for BIM managers who don't have a structured answer to the question, 'Which one should we use?' We'll walk through a practical evaluation framework: three questions that separate what each approach can and cannot do, demonstrated live inside Revit. You'll leave with a comparison matrix you can use in your next vendor meeting, your next build-versus-buy discussion, or the next time someone on LinkedIn tells you the future is here.

Use Autodesk for fast drafting, quick design changes, and concept development. Then bring that DWG proposal data into your geodatabase to streamline integration with your existing geographic information system (GIS). Autodesk excels at rapid design, while GIS provides spatial context and publishing power. By designing in AutoCAD software and delivering through ArcGIS Pro or ArcGIS Online, you get both speed and accuracy for customer ready proposals.
