BIM 360 for Windows is Autodesk's cloud construction management platform, created to unite the people, models, and documents behind a building project. It answers the everyday question of what is BIM 360 by acting as the shared workspace where drawings are controlled, designs are reviewed, models are coordinated, and field issues are tracked. Since BIM 360 is cloud-based and paired with a Windows desktop companion, distributed teams collaborate on the same information whether they are at a desk or on a job site. The platform is now delivered as part of Autodesk Construction Cloud, broadening its reach across the project lifecycle.
- Document management that keeps every drawing, plan, and specification versioned, organized, and access-controlled.
- Design collaboration that lets disciplines review, mark up, and align on the current design intent together.
- Model coordination that aggregates trade models, runs automatic clash detection, and clears conflicts early.
- Field and quality management that captures issues, checklists, and inspections on site and syncs them back to the office.
- Autodesk integration that links Revit and the wider Autodesk ecosystem so data flows through your workflow.
