Managing budgets and schedules is one of the biggest challenges in construction. Traditional workflows often rely on periodic cost estimates, which can lead to late-stage redesigns, unexpected overruns and delays. Assemble changes that by providing real-time visibility into material quantities and costs.
Assemble is a web-based 3D model and quantity takeoff tool that tracks material and cost changes throughout a project. Instead of waiting weeks for updated estimates, teams can see impacts on a weekly basis. This iterative approach helps design teams make small adjustments early, avoiding time-intensive redesigns and keeping projects on track.
Assemble automatically highlights additions and subtractions in material quantities and provides a complete list of differences.
“Autodesk Assemble enables me to clearly see how design choices affect cost, helps avoid delays from redesign or value engineering and supports faster, more confident decisions for owners, designers and the construction team.”

By shifting cost control from a periodic process to a continuous one, Assemble helps owners and project teams work smarter and more efficiently. For owners, that means better visibility into how design decisions affect project cost. For project teams, it means faster quantity tracking, more efficient pricing and fewer surprises as a project moves from design into construction.
