ARKANCE launches Be.Smart 
Connector to simplify collaboration and improve project delivery   

Be.Smart Connector will be showcased at BIM World Paris on April 1st and 2nd  

April 1st, 2026, Paris, France – ARKANCE, a global leader in technology and services for the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) today announced the commercial launch of the Be.Smart Connector® in EMEA. The cloud-based solution connects Autodesk Forma® (previously known as Autodesk Construction Cloud) and Bluebeam Studio®, helping projects collaborate in real-time, streamline PDF workflows and ensure every team is working from the most up-to-date project data.  

Designed for AEC professionals, the Be.Smart Connector eliminates the manual steps when moving documents between platforms. By creating a unified cloud environment across two industry-leading platforms, it helps teams reduce errors, save time, and keep project moving forward.   

For decades, project teams have struggled with disconnected systems and manual file handling. The Be.Smart Connector eliminates data silos and repetitive steps such as exporting, uploading, and reconciling PDFs between Autodesk Forma and Bluebeam Studio. Among its most impactful capabilities is smart slip sheeting, which automatically preserves markups across revisions, helping teams shorten review cycles, reduce errors, save valuable time, and advance more standardised, data-driven practices across the industry.   

Seamless collaboration across tools is no longer optional, it’s essential.With the Be.Smart Connector, we are not only addressing long-standing customer pain points around data silos and manual file transfers but also raising the standard for interoperability.
