What it is
Autodesk Forma Schedule is a construction scheduling tool presented as part of Autodesk Build, now under Autodesk Forma. It centralizes project schedules and digital work plans so project teams can share schedule information and collaborate. Teams can connect files, photos, issues, sheets, and assets to activities, and link schedules to Cost for time-related costs and cash flow. Search and filters help locate schedule items, while visual comparisons can show up to five schedule versions. The tool also supports weekly work plans with tasks, handoffs, roadblocks, and dependencies. Schedule imports can bring in data from Primavera P6, Microsoft Project, or ASTA Powerproject. On mobile, users can browse activities by day, week, or month and search for an activity. Forma is cloud-based and runs in a browser; its mobile app is available through the App Store and Google Play. Pricing is on request, and the listed plan is Autodesk Forma Build, which includes Schedule.
