The Power Behind Progress: ARKANCE’s Unmatched Professional Services Network 

In AEC and manufacturing, complexity is the new normal. Projects are larger, timelines are tighter, regulations are tougher, and expectations - higher than ever. For leaders navigating digital transformation, the stakes aren’t just about staying competitive - they’re about surviving and scaling in a volatile market. 

Technology plays a critical role - but even the best tools fall short without the right people to implement, guide, and optimize them. As skill shortages intensify and project complexity grows, organizations increasingly need more than software - they need trusted expertise they can embed and rely on. 

Take Howden Thomassen Compressors, for example – a globally active manufacturer of high-performance compressors with ambitious goals to modernize their digital infrastructure. Facing complex legacy systems, growing operational demands, and a need to harmonize workflows across international teams, they turned to ARKANCE not just for tools, but for expertise. 

Rather than approaching transformation as a standard software rollout, Howden chose to lean into ARKANCE’s full professional services offering. In addition to providing the right technologies, ARKANCE embedded a dedicated team of consultants directly into Howden’s transformation program. These experts played a central role  -  aligning departments, accelerating user adoption, and co-developing a long-term IT roadmap tailored to Howden’s global operations. This hands-on partnership enabled Howden to streamline its data environment, navigate complex organizational change, and establish a strong digital foundation for future growth. 

Together with ARKANCE, we defined a clear goal on the horizon - along with the path to reach it. We’re laying the foundation together with ARKANCE to scale up and achieve our future business goals

That’s the power of having expertise that integrates directly into your operations. With over 1,200 engineers, consultants, and developers across 50+ offices worldwide, ARKANCE offers one of the most experienced professional services networks in the industry helping its customers unlock progress where it matters most. 

Not Just a Vendor - A Partner Built for Progress 

When companies face rising costs, regulatory shifts, fragmented workflows, or outdated data environments, the answer isn’t more software licenses. It’s embedded expertise that can turn disruption into opportunity. 

That’s why ARKANCE has built the largest dedicated team of engineering, consulting, and development professionals focused exclusively on AEC and manufacturing. Our people don’t just understand the tools - they understand the real-world pressures our customers face and how to solve them at scale. 

We bring a rare combination of global reach and local depth: 

  • 1,200+ technical professionals 

  • 50+ offices across Europe, the Middle East, the Americas, and Asia-Pacific 

  • Decades of hands-on experience in both construction and manufacturing 

From BIM/VDC consulting and fabrication automation to systems integration, data strategy, and upskilling, our teams work shoulder-to-shoulder with customers to design, implement, and scale smarter ways of working

We don’t just guide from the outside - we embed within your teams to help translate strategy into results. 

As our Greg Arranz, Chief Executive Officer for ARKANCE puts it: 

Transformation doesn’t happen in PowerPoint decks or product demos. It happens when experienced people sit beside your team and say, ‘We’ve solved this before - let’s solve it together.’ That’s the ARKANCE difference.

Greg Arranz, Global CEO ARKANCE

Four Regions, One Mission: Delivering Impact Locally 

No two markets are the same. Across the globe, AEC and manufacturing companies are at vastly different stages in their digital transformation journeys. Some are leading the charge - refining prefab strategies, scaling automation, or integrating AI - while others are just beginning to move beyond legacy tools and manual processes. 

ARKANCE meets customers where they are. Our teams work in-market, in-language, and in-step with local realities, backed by the strength of a global services network. Whether navigating infrastructure regulations in Australia, accelerating project delivery in India, or aligning cross-border workflows in Europe, our professionals combine local knowledge with shared global expertise to solve challenges that span both strategy and execution. 

Here’s how our regional leaders describe the unique landscapes they serve - and how ARKANCE is making a difference on the ground: 

Australia & New Zealand 

“In ANZ, change is no longer isolated to individual projects or departments - it’s business-wide, and it’s accelerating. Leaders are navigating a convergence of challenges: digitizing manual processes, complying with new regulations, managing AI’s impact, and harnessing data to drive collaboration and performance. You can’t just transact your way through this. You need a coordinated approach - and a trusted partner who’s done it before. 

Our team brings deep industry experience and technical versatility, drawing on our position as Autodesk’s largest Construction Cloud implementation partner in the region. We’re seeing strong and growing appetite for ACC as the backbone for digital delivery, and we help customers get real value from it - fast. 

Our people come from industry, they speak the same language as our customers, and they focus not just on best practice - but next practice. Our goal is simple: to make our customers the standouts in their space.

Don Holley, Professional Services Director ARKANCE Australia New Zealand

India 

“India’s infrastructure growth is extraordinary - but digital delivery is struggling to keep pace. While ambition is high, fragmented systems, reactive workflows, and siloed implementation efforts still dominate project execution. At ARKANCE, we’re changing that. 

Through ARKANCE Consulting Services, we deliver standardized process development, automation, and data intelligence tailored to the full asset lifecycle. Our people combine global best practices with local execution expertise to build scalable, future-ready BIM strategies that actually stick.  

We don’t just implement technology - we embed with project teams to co-create digital journeys that deliver faster, more predictable, and connected outcomes. It’s transformation that works - because it’s built by people who understand what’s needed on the ground.

Namun Mishra, Program Manager – Consulting ARKANCE India

Europe, Middle East & Africa (EMEA) 

“EMEA often leads the way in BIM adoption and sustainability mandates - but digital maturity still varies widely between countries, disciplines, and project phases. Many organizations are rich in potential but need practical support to turn strategy into action. 

At ARKANCE, we help bridge that gap. We don’t just train teams or install software - we work alongside customers to assess their current state, grow digital capability, and create localized tools or custom workflows aligned to business goals. 

Our people come from industry and understand the real challenges on-site and in the office. With deep European expertise and strong local presence, we tailor our support to what works on the ground. As active contributors to industry associations and development programs, we’re committed to enabling sustainable digital transformation - not just once, but for the long term.

Tuomas Hörkkö, Vice President ARKANCE EMEA Services

United States 

“In the U.S., the pace of technology change - AI, BIM, cloud - can be overwhelming for small to mid-sized firms. Many are dealing with fragmented systems, disconnected data, and growing pressure from clients to deliver smarter, faster, and more sustainable results. But without an integrated approach, digital transformation often stalls before it scales. 

That’s where ARKANCE steps in. We combine strategic questioning with deep industry expertise to uncover pain points fast and align solutions with real business objectives.

From hands-on training to tailored platform integration, we help customers overcome communication silos, reduce resistance to change, and create a single source of truth across teams. Our collaborative, end-to-end approach ensures that transformation doesn’t just look good on paper - it delivers real results in the field.

Dawn Bridges, Vice President, Professional Services ARKANCE USA

From Vision to Execution: Why Our Expertise Makes the Difference 

Across AEC and manufacturing, customers are being asked to do more with less. Talent is in short supply - only 17% of companies report having a multiskilled workforce, and 43% say talent access is a direct barrier to growth. Whether it's delivering infrastructure on tighter timelines or modernizing manufacturing lines with leaner teams, the pressure is real. 

That’s why ARKANCE goes beyond strategy decks or one-off implementations. Our people work side-by-side with yours - helping you overcome capacity constraints, fill critical skill gaps, and execute transformation with confidence. 

Our services span the full lifecycle of your projects and operations. We support you at every step to: 

  • Define strategic transformation roadmaps 

  • Optimize design and coordination workflows (BIM, CAD, GIS) 

  • Automate prefabrication and manufacturing processes 

  • Upskill your teams with targeted training 

  • Integrate systems, data environments, and emerging technologies 

  • Manage change at the organizational level 

Some customers need a full roadmap from the ground up. Others have strong digital foundations and want to scale what’s working. In both cases, ARKANCE delivers measurable progress - fast. 

When internal teams are stretched thin, our experts embed directly into your environment - whether it’s one technical specialist or a full squad managing multi-site implementation. 

This is full-spectrum transformation. Strategic. Scalable. People-powered. 

And it’s only possible because of our people. 

Why Our People Are Your People 

Transformation is complex. It’s not just about buying the right tools - it’s about having the right people to make those tools work for your business, your teams, and your environment. 

That’s why at ARKANCE, we don’t stop at strategy or software. We become an extension of your team - augmenting internal capacity, closing capability gaps, and guiding your transformation from start to scale. 

Whether you're launching a new design process, deploying automation, or aligning digital tools across regions, ARKANCE brings the technical talent, industry knowledge, and practical experience to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.
