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 integrates Aurigo Primus Plan with Autodesk Construction Cloud to link planning to execution
Key point
On September 23, 2025, 08:55 ET, Aurigo Software announced a fully integrated solution that brings together Aurigo’s capital planning product with Autodesk Construction Cloud. The integration is designed to connect long-range strategy and funding decisions with downstream project execution by sharing core data elements and synchronizing planned vs. actual performance between systems.
What was announced
The new link joins Aurigo Primus Plan with Autodesk Construction Cloud, and specifically ties Autodesk® Build Cost Management and Aurigo Primus Plan. The systems can share Projects, Budgets, Commitments, Change Orders, and Expenses, and support planned vs. actual performance updates between the two platforms so owners can see portfolio performance more quickly.
Why it matters
The companies framed the work as a response to growing capital programs across multiple sectors. The announcement cites 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, and says planning and finance teams need modern tools to address the complexity of these programs. With data flowing from the planning stage into execution and back, owners can publish approved projects and budgets into downstream workflows and instantly synchronize commitments and actuals from the field to understand portfolio performance in real time.
How the integration works
Owners using both systems can move approved projects and budgets out of planning and into execution workflows inside Autodesk Construction Cloud. Data elements such as Projects, Budgets, Commitments, Change Orders, and Expenses will pass between Aurigo Primus Plan and Autodesk® Build Cost Management. The integration supports updates that compare planned information to actual field performance, enabling ongoing tracking at portfolio scale.
Claims about scale and capability
The announcement states that Aurigo manages more than $450 billion in capital programs across 40,000 projects. It also positions Aurigo Primus as the industry’s first AI-powered capital planning system purpose-built for facility owners, with features to define project charters, model funding scenarios, forecast outcomes, and apply predictive analytics and generative modeling for portfolio optimization, risk assessment, and cost control.
Leadership and partnership context
The release identifies Balaji Sreenivasan as CEO and founder of Aurigo Software and Sidharth Haksar as vice president, construction strategy & industry partnerships at Autodesk. The companies described the integration as connecting planning and execution so owner-operators can make faster, more informed investment decisions. The release also notes that Aurigo is a privately held U.S. corporation headquartered in Austin, Texas, with global offices in Canada and India.
Product background and related moves
Aurigo highlighted its broader product lineup and recent activity. The release mentions a prior announcement on Aug. 12, 2025 introducing an Essentials Plan, another AI-powered capital planning solution for local agencies. The company says its solutions are used across transportation, water and utilities, healthcare, higher education, and government on over 40,000 projects in North America and by more than 300 customers, managing more than $450 billion of capital programs.
Operational benefits cited
The integration aims to reduce duplicate data entry, increase efficiency across handoffs, and surface risks earlier by moving management of capital programs upstream. When planning and execution systems share information in near real time, owners can prioritize projects, program funding, and monitor performance from inception through design, construction, and maintenance.
