Unlike generic integration platforms, Be.Smart Connector is designed specifically to support critical AECO project workflows.
Connect Autodesk Forma and Microsoft SharePoint
Project teams manage live project information in Autodesk Forma, while Microsoft SharePoint supports corporate document management, compliance, and knowledge sharing.
The challenge is ensuring information flows seamlessly between these environments.
That's why ARKANCE is developing the next Be.Smart Connector for Microsoft SharePoint, as part of a broader Federated Data Environment (FDE) vision.
We are looking for forward-thinking companies to join our Early Adopter Program and help validate the workflows, use cases, and business processes that matter most to the industry.
What Are We Exploring?
The Be.Smart Connector for SharePoint is being designed to support scenarios such as:
Automatically transfer project files between Autodesk Forma and Microsoft SharePoint.
Examples:
Daily project backups
Milestone-based archiving
Compliance and retention requirements
Corporate knowledge preservation
Make project information easier to access across departments and business systems.
Examples:
Connecting project teams with corporate SharePoint environments
Improving access to project documentation
Centralizing information for operations and management teams
Explore opportunities to automate repetitive information management processes.
Examples:
Scheduled transfers
Trigger-based workflows
Project handover processes
Information governance workflows
Many organizations need more than document transfers.
We want to understand how project teams use other project (meta) data and collaboration records.
The Early Adopter Program will help determine which information should be supported in future releases.
What Makes the Be.Smart Connector Different?
Built for Industry Workflows
Simple and User-Friendly
Create integrations through an intuitive interface without requiring scripting or complex development work.
Cloud-to-Cloud Connectivity
Information moves directly between platforms, helping organizations reduce manual effort (download-upload) while maintaining control of their data.
Part of a Broader Vision
The SharePoint connector is one step in ARKANCE's broader mission to enable a Federated Data Environment where information can flow across the project ecosystem without creating yet another data silo.
Why Join the Early Adopter Program?
This program is not about testing a finished product. It is about helping to understand:
Which business processes require integration between Forma and SharePoint
When and why information should be transferred
Which project information is most valuable to preserve
How organizations manage compliance, retention, backup, and knowledge sharing
Which automations can create the greatest operational value
This is an opportunity to influence the product before its commercial launch - not simply test a finished solution.
