The field app for Autodesk Build, Autodesk BIM Collaborate, and Autodesk Docs PlanGrid Build is the best-in-class construction management app for Autodesk Construction Cloud. Simple automation and smart connections between tools make it easy for the more than 2.5 million construction projects across 143 countries to deliver quality projects on time and under budget. PlanGrid Build brings Autodesk Build, Autodesk BIM Collaborate, Autodesk Docs, Revit, Navisworks, and AutoCAD to the field with collaboration tools and project data available from anywhere. PlanGrid Build is made for the project team, like… • the superintendent managing the quality of work on site • the project manager tracking progress in real-time • the BIM team identifying issues ahead of installation • the foreman implementing new safety programs • the architect doing a site walk • and the owner, who uses data from project start to daily operations, to improve the efficiency of the next project. Here’s how we do it. COLLABORATION + Issues Track issues, from design to handover, all in one place. Resolve issues faster by adding due dates, responsible parties, and easily reference photos, associated files, and RFIs. + Schedule Keep projects on track with a centralized schedule. View the schedule by different timespans or filter by critical items, review predecessor and successor dependencies, and assess schedule suggestions, all from your mobile device. + Forms Gather critical information with forms that adapt to project requirements. Build a comprehensive safety program or track daily checklists. + Assets Easily manage the lifecycle of project assets from design through commissioning and handover. Assets are tracked, stored, and connected to other workflows in the app. + Meetings Stay ahead of the next meeting by creating meetings or meeting agenda items. Link to references like issues, models, RFIs, or photos. Check the status of outstanding items and follow up, all from the field. FILE MANAGEMENT + Sheets Quickly access the latest drawings and shared plans with quick downloads and dynamic search. Compare, share, and markup sheets directly from the field to take the guesswork out of installation. + Models Make critical decisions faster with access to 3D models in the field. View installation details and effortlessly navigate single or multi-trade models to build with confidence. (Supports RVT, DWG, NWC, IFC, NWD) QUALITY + RFIs Reduce the risk of data loss with seamless RFI management. Connect RFIs across the project lifecycle to cut down on duplicate work. Build flexibility into your workflows with the custom data fields. + Submittals Keep all relevant submittal information on hand. With search, quickly find the necessary submittal to view progress and next steps. Add references to link submittals to workflows throughout the project. + Photos Use photos to track progress and add references to issues, RFIs, schedule adjustments, and more. With autotags and location data, quickly find the photo you need. We’ve made big moves to support a changing industry, and our customers agree: "The ability to access 3D models from the field eliminates confusion and allows us to come to a real-time resolution for any issues onsite. This capability reduces risk and provides cost and time savings while ensuring we deliver high-quality projects to our clients." Briana Mitchell, Project Manager, Boldt Company "We have about 460 field employees and for them to access documents in real-time directly on their iPhone or their iPad is priceless." Ken Mabe, Director of Field Operations, Eckardt Group "I’m excited about being able to effortlessly tag a snippet from a drawing onto an RFI and immediately assign responsibilities and track how the project team interacts with a particular issue or RFI. The ability to track an issue’s progression in real-time helps us manage any roadblocks immediately." Amy Kozlowski, Project Manager, Herrero Builders
