Challenge 1: Perceived High Costs of Implementation
The Barrier: Many firms are hesitant to invest in digital engineering due to the perceived high cost of software, hardware, and implementation. This is particularly common among firms operating on narrow project margins.
The Solution: Digital engineering should be viewed not as an expense, but as an investment in efficiency, accuracy, and long-term savings. Through scalable solutions and ROI modeling, ARKANCE helps customers understand the financial upside of automation, better design accuracy, and reduced rework.

One of the first things we do is help customers build a realistic ROI model tailored to their business. When you can clearly see how digital engineering reduces costs and drives value, decision-making becomes easier.
Challenge 2: Resistance to Change and Lack of Internal Buy-In
The Barrier: Cultural inertia and fear of the unknown often slow adoption. Many professionals are accustomed to traditional methods and feel overwhelmed by new technologies.
The Solution: ARKANCE offers a structured change management approach, including team training, stakeholder engagement, and incremental adoption strategies that build confidence across departments.
The implementation of a wide portfolio of Autodesk AEC solutions allowed Fluidra to work in a connected and collaborative way between internal and external teams, data and processes
Business Outcomes

Challenge 3: Skill Gaps and Training Needs
The Barrier: Even firms that are ready to adopt digital tools often struggle with the lack of in-house expertise to use them effectively.
The Solution: ARKANCE provides comprehensive training programs tailored to different roles - whether you’re in design, project management, or on-site delivery. Our approach is practical, scalable, and built for busy professionals.
Challenge 4: Fragmented Systems and Poor Data Integration
The Barrier: Many AEC firms use disconnected tools that create data silos, miscommunication, and manual rework.
The Solution: Our integration specialists help unify systems around a Common Data Environment (CDE), enabling smoother collaboration, better version control, and real-time decision-making across project teams.
A Common Data Environment (CDE) is a centralized platform that streamlines collaboration and data management across all stakeholders in the AEC industry. It ensures transparency for owners, enables real-time design sharing for architects and designers, improves coordination for contractors, and simplifies documentation for suppliers. By minimizing misunderstandings and ensuring everyone is working from the latest information, a CDE helps accelerate timelines and deliver better project outcomes.
Challenge 5: Uncertainty Around Regulations and Sustainability Requirements
The Barrier: Regulatory complexity and sustainability targets are increasing, but many firms don’t know where to start.
The Solution: With deep industry experience, ARKANCE helps AEC firms navigate BIM mandates, ISO standards, and sustainability driven requirements. Our tools and expertise make compliance part of your everyday workflow - not a last-minute scramble.
