It really affects the schedule and budget. Being able to do that in Autodesk Construction Cloud—where the design and construction teams are on the same platform—makes things much faster, which obviously helps with schedule and budget, which is what the client wants. That takes days, sometimes weeks. What were some unique challenges?
