Autodesk Forma (formerly Autodesk Construction Cloud)

Tier A · Listed

Autodesk's construction platform, now sold as Autodesk Forma

Autodesk moved Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) into its Autodesk Forma brand on 24 March 2026 and renamed the products, for example Forma Build, Forma Data Management, Forma Takeoff and Forma Estimate. Autodesk sells them in three quote-based bundles, Model Management, Preconstruction and Construction Operations, which also include Navisworks Manage, BuildingConnected Pro, ProEst and Pype tools.

Pros

+ Model coordination, design collaboration and document management in one account
+ Bundles run from takeoff, estimating and bidding to field operations and closeout
+ User-, project- and account-based pricing options (per Autodesk)
+ 30-day money-back guarantee stated on the pricing page

Cons

− No public prices for the construction bundles: quote-based
− No Oman partner confirmed in this check
− Product names changed in March 2026, so older guides use ACC names
− Not an accounting or VAT tool

Oman note

Most useful where a project team works from BIM models and shares drawings across companies. Ask Autodesk who resells and supports Forma in Oman before you buy, and keep Oman VAT invoicing in your accounting system.

Typical Oman pricing: Quote-based: Autodesk's construction pricing page lists three bundles (Model Management, Preconstruction, Construction Operations) with 'Get a quote' and no prices; Autodesk says it offers user-, project- and account-based pricing and a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Oracle Aconex

Tier A · Listed

Oracle's cloud document control and project collaboration platform

Oracle Aconex is a cloud platform where every party on a project shares documents, formal correspondence (Mail) and review workflows in one auditable record; Oracle announced its purchase of Aconex in December 2017. Oracle's Aconex status page lists a Middle East (MEA) instance and a separate Saudi Arabia (KSA1) instance. Oracle announced new Aconex capabilities in April 2026.

Pros

+ Documents, Mail and approval workflows in one shared project record
+ Middle East (MEA) and Saudi (KSA1) instances listed by Oracle
+ Oracle Aconex Mobile app for site teams
+ Still developed: new capabilities announced in April 2026

Cons

− No public prices: quote from Oracle
− No Oman reseller or Oman project reference confirmed in this check
− Built for multi-party projects, more than a small contractor needs
− Support Central help is not offered in Arabic

Oman note

Aconex suits main contractors, consultants and clients who need one shared record of documents and correspondence across many companies. It does not keep VAT records or issue tax invoices, so pair it with an accounting system that handles Oman VAT.

Typical Oman pricing: Quote-based; no public price list found.
