Austin, Texas, September 24, 2025
News Summary
Aurigo has launched a fully integrated connection between Aurigo Primus Plan and Autodesk Construction Cloud to link long-range capital planning with downstream project execution. The integration syncs projects, budgets, commitments, change orders, and expenses so approved plans and budgets can be published into execution workflows while field commitments and actuals flow back into planning in near real time. The combined capability enables planned vs. actual performance tracking, scenario modeling, and improved portfolio visibility so owners can prioritize, monitor, and respond to cost and schedule variances earlier in the lifecycle.
Aurigo links capital planning to construction execution with new Autodesk integration
On Sept. 23, 2025 at 08:55 ET, Aurigo Software announced a new integration that connects its capital planning product with Autodesk Construction Cloud. The move introduces a fully integrated solution that brings together Aurigo’s capital planning product with Autodesk Construction Cloud®, enabling facility owners and operators to move planning decisions into downstream project delivery tools.
What the integration does
The integration links Autodesk® Build Cost Management and Aurigo Primus Plan so owners can publish approved projects and budgets into execution workflows and synchronize field data back to planning systems. Key data types that transfer between systems include Projects, Budgets, Commitments, Change Orders, and Expenses. The systems also support planned vs. actual performance updates between Autodesk Build Cost Management and Aurigo Primus Plan, giving program managers a clearer, near real-time view of portfolio performance.
Why Aurigo says this matters
Aurigo positions the integration as a way to connect long-range strategy and funding decisions with downstream project execution. The company describes itself as North America’s leading capital planning software provider and says the integration helps capital owners ability to collect, prioritize, program, and track performance of projects from inception (before design or build). Moving management of capital programs upstream should allow teams to detect risks earlier and make returns on investment easier to calculate; Aurigo frames that outcome as moving management of capital programs upstream allows risks to be identified early and returns on investments to be calculated more easily.
Product and technology details
The product line central to the announcement is Aurigo Primus, described in the announcement as the industry’s first AI-powered capital planning system purpose-built for facility owners. Aurigo Primus includes tools to define project charters, model funding scenarios, forecast outcomes; includes predictive analytics and generative modeling to enable portfolio optimization, risk assessment, and cost control. When paired with Autodesk Construction Cloud — which the release calls a comprehensive construction management solution that connects workflows, teams, and data across every stage of a project, from design and planning through building and operations — approved projects and budgets flow into construction workflows and commitments and actuals flow back to the planning layer.
Context and scale
The release references wider market activity, noting that Recent data from the U.S. Census Bureau indicate that construction across multiple sectors of the economy is on the rise, including data centers, manufacturing, and healthcare. Aurigo also highlights its current scale, stating that the company manages more than $450 billion in capital programs across 40,000 projects and that its broader platform is used across transportation, water and utilities, healthcare, higher education, and government.
Partnership and expected benefits
Aurigo framed the integration as complementary to Autodesk’s execution tools, calling it a way to create a connected loop from planning through design, construction, and maintenance. The integration aims to reduce duplicate data entry, shorten handoffs between groups, and increase transparency by keeping financial commitments and field actuals in sync with long-range plans.
