The Future Takes Shape: Welcome to Forma

The Industry Is Changing. So Is the Platform.

The design and construction industry is under more pressure than ever. Projects must move faster. Costs continue to rise. Skilled labour is harder to secure. And expectations around efficiency and sustainability are increasing.

In response to these challenges, Autodesk is making bold moves — expanding Autodesk Forma into a more comprehensive, connected platform for the AEC industry.

As Andrew Anagnost, President and CEO of Autodesk, recently shared:

“The choices we make over the next five years will shape our world for the next fifty — and we’re on the knife-edge.”

For our customers, this signals something important: the tools you rely on are evolving to better connect design, construction, and operations in one unified environment.

What the Expansion of Forma Means for You

Autodesk Forma is growing beyond conceptual design into a more complete, AI-enabled industry cloud. With its integration into Autodesk Construction Cloud, the goal is to create a seamless data environment that connects teams across the entire project lifecycle.

As your Autodesk partner, our role is to help you understand how this evolution impacts your workflows, licenses, integrations, and long-term technology strategy.

Connect planning, design, and construction in one environment

Share information easily across teams

Use AI to inform early-stage plannin

Track progress and performance across lifecycle

We’re hosting a two-part webinar series to help you:

Understand Autodesk’s expanded vision for Forma
See how integration with Autodesk Construction Cloud affects your workflows
Evaluate what this means for your team
Plan your next steps with confidence

Got a question?

Implementing Forma isn’t just about activating a licence — it’s about aligning people, process and data.

Symetri supports you by:

Assessing your current digital maturity
Defining how early-stage planning connects to BIM and downstream delivery
Structuring workflows between Forma and tools like Autodesk Revit and Autodesk Construction Cloud
Training your teams to adopt new digital planning methods
Embedding standards to ensure consistency

Forma helps organisations:

Make faster feasibility decisions
Analyse site constraints (sunlight, wind, context, environmental factors)
Compare massing and density options
Improve collaboration between planners, architects and stakeholders
Reduce costly redesign later in the project lifecycle

Symetri helps you turn these insights into structured processes that improve decision confidence and business performance.

Forma supports early concept modelling and analysis, which can then transition into detailed BIM workflows.

We help ensure smooth handover into:

Autodesk Revit for detailed modelling
Autodesk Docs for structured data management
Autodesk Construction Cloud for collaboration and coordination

Our role is to eliminate data silos and ensure continuity from concept through delivery.

Forma is one component of a broader digital journey.

Symetri provides:

Digital strategy development
BIM implementation and information management consultancy
Change management and adoption support
Workflow optimisation
Integration across Autodesk ecosystems

We guide organisations through complexity — providing clarity, structure and measurable outcomes at each stage of change.

We begin with a discovery conversation.

Together, we assess:

Your current planning and feasibility challenges
How decisions are made today
Gaps between early-stage analysis and delivery
Your existing Autodesk or BIM environment

From there, we advise whether Forma is the right solution — and if so, how to implement it effectively.
