“I like how Autodesk Build gives you the ability “The ability to go to one place to get
to cater individual workflows to your needs, my plans, my RFIs, my submittals… it
so you’re not inundated to information that is going to save a lot of time and
isn’t pertinent to you.” effort”
Amy Kozlowski John Mack
Project Manager, Herrero Builders Virtual Design Department Manager,
Dome Construction

“Having one platform where you know you can get all of your information, and it is the only
app that you need to open for the day, that is going to make a superintendent's life so
much easier.”
