How ACC and Revizto are Driving Collaboration on a Hospital Project

Will Dam, Senior VDC Manager, Andersen Construction

Delivering a new, 616,000 square foot hospital building on an active healthcare campus with an ER and multiple MOB’s is a uniquely complex undertaking. It demands rigorous coordination, clear communication and a strong grasp of existing site conditions—all while avoiding disruption to ongoing patient care. Two platforms rising to meet our challenge are Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) and Revizto. Used together, they streamline design, coordination, owner insights and field workflows across every stage of the project lifecycle.

In this article, I’ll break down how ACC and Revizto are empowering multidisciplinary teams to collaborate more effectively on healthcare projects and why their integration is especially valuable for hospital construction in live environments.

Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC): A Connected Data Environment

ACC combines tools like BIM Collaborate Pro, Docs, Build and Takeoff into a centralized ecosystem. For hospital projects, where coordination across architectural, MEP and specialty trades is critical, this unified data environment helps eliminate silos and enhance visibility across all project stakeholders, internally and externally.

Key Benefits:

• Centralized Model Access: ACC provides a single source of truth for design models and sheets. Teams can work on live, cloud-hosted models without the risk of version confusion or outdated data sets.

• Real-Time Design Collaboration: With BIM Collaborate Pro, architects, engineers and trade partners co-author models from anywhere, reducing design delays and overlapping workstreams.

• Constructability Coordination: ACC’s Model Coordination was used early on in the process to confirm shared coordinate values were followed and to visualize the aggregated design models prior to trades being brought on board.

Revizto: Field-Friendly Coordination and Issue Tracking

Revizto is a real-time issue tracking and model visualization platform designed for ease of use in the field. It’s known for its intuitive interface, which brings BIM data to non-authoring users like superintendents, trade partners, owners, design consultants and facilities staff.

“Using ACC and Revizto together enables a modern, connected and visual coordination process, one that meets the demanding standards of healthcare construction. For project teams building a hospital on an existing campus, these tools bridge the gap between design and construction, digital and physical, office and field”

Key Benefits:

• Unified 3D/2D Viewer: Revizto combines 3D models, 2D sheets and point clouds into a single navigable interface. Field crews can use it to visualize system routes and spatial constraints directly on tablets. An integrated AR viewing system allows for real time viewing of future build outs as well.

• Clash-to-Issue Conversion: Clashes identified in clash test within the platform can be directly imported into Revizto’s Issue Tracker as actionable issues, assigned to responsible parties and tracked through resolution. The clash system in Revizto also allows automations that include grouping and auto-assigning stamped issues to the correct parties, cutting down on manual practices for the VDC team.

• Visual Walkthroughs for Coordination: Revizto enables project teams to conduct virtual walkthroughs of hospital spaces—ideal for validating access, clearance, infection control zones and other healthcare-specific requirements. On this project we will use VR headsets to review patient room and OR layouts for sign-off by the owner months before construction starts.

• Offline Capability for Live Facilities: Our hospital project includes basements, shielded rooms and areas with poor connectivity. Revizto allows offline issue tracking and model access, which syncs once reconnected to keep viewing opportunities available.

How ACC and Revizto Work Together

While both tools offer strong standalone capabilities, their real power lies in how they complement each other:

Revizto ↔ ACC Docs - Revizto pulls the latest drawings and models from ACC Docs, ensuring the team is always working with up-to-date information.

Revizto Dashboards - Dashboards are used to show the overall project team the outstanding issues and assigned issues by scope, date or status. Automated weekly distribution allows for overall project clarity.

Hospital-Specific Value

Hospital construction on an existing campus introduces several constraints that these platforms help manage:

• Ongoing Operations: ACC and Revizto help teams work around live systems, patient safety zones and critical utilities that must remain online by placing stamps that represent specific needs within the model.

• Early Facilities Engagement: Facilities and operations teams can interact with coordinated models in Revizto, even without Revit expertise or a product license, leading to smoother handover and long-term maintainability.

• Time-Sensitive Decision Making: Hospitals often need rapid execution due to increasing demand or regulatory deadlines. ACC and Revizto reduce rework, RFIs and miscommunication, keeping the project on track.

Using ACC and Revizto together enables a modern, connected and visual coordination process, one that meets the demanding standards of healthcare construction. For project teams building a hospital on an existing campus, these tools bridge the gap between design and construction, digital and physical, office and field.

The result? Faster decisions, fewer surprises and a project team that operates as a cohesive unit—even on the most complex, high-stakes projects.
