Collaboration Opportunities and Workflows Across the AEC Collection

September 30, 2025 Sarah Manfroni

Starting in 2021 all users who have an AEC Collection license assigned to them now also have access to Autodesk Docs. Autodesk Docs is the key collaboration tool for AEC Collection users. It creates a “Single Source of Truth” for all of your project work. It provides a way to seamlessly share date with all project stakeholders. Key capabilities of Autodesk Docs allow you to:

•    Keep everyone on the same page throughout the lifespan of a project with all your data centralized on a s    ingle Common Data Environment.
•    Avoid costly mistakes with the latest versions of documents available to all in real time.
•    Connect design to construction workflows with integrations to the design tools you rely on.

Autodesk Docs is not just a place to store data it also services as a basic project management tool. It allows for trackable action items on a project via the Issue tool. A document markup tool used in conjunction with the issue tool allows for clear communication with a design team. Autodesk Docs also provides a review tool to allow any document to be put through multiple step review process, to ensure that documents are seen by the right people before being release to the broader design team. Finally, in March of 2024 s tool to share the project specifications was introduced. The Specifications tool in Autodesk Docs allows members with Create permission or above to add and publish specifications for use by project members.

Project Files: Organize your project files with folders, and control permission to certain files so members only have access to the information they need. 

Organize your folders structure to meet the needs of your project work. This allows your team to access all project related documentation in a single common area.

Being Cloud based, all users will have access to the same data regardless of their location. In the office of from remote locations, as long as you have internet access you have access to the entire project. Allowing for seamless collaboration.
