CDE Sync for 12D Synergy
Connecting 12D Synergy to Every Major CDE Platform
12D Synergy is a document and data management platform purpose-built for civil engineering, surveying, and spatial data workflows. It is widely used across road, rail, water, and civil infrastructure programmes in Australia and New Zealand, and is the platform of choice for organisations working with 12D Model and other civil design tools.
On large infrastructure programmes, 12D Synergy teams frequently need to exchange models, drawings, and documents with project partners working across Autodesk, Bentley, Aconex, Procore, and other platforms. Without an automated integration in place, that exchange defaults to manual file transfers, metadata reformatting, and re-uploads, creating version drift and traceability gaps across the project supply chain.
CDE Sync by Utopia Digital eliminates that manual process. It automates the bidirectional synchronisation of files, metadata, and version control between 12D Synergy and every other major CDE platform, so civil design and survey teams can work in their preferred environment without creating data fragmentation across the broader project ecosystem.
12D Synergy integrated with Autodesk BIM 360, ACC, and Forma Autodesk platforms are widely used by architects, structural engineers, and building services teams on programmes where civil and survey work is managed in 12D Synergy. CDE Sync connects the two environments, synchronising models, drawings, and metadata between 12D Synergy and Autodesk so that cross-discipline coordination happens automatically without manual file transfers between platforms.
12D Synergy integrated with Bentley ProjectWise On infrastructure programmes where Bentley ProjectWise serves as the long-term asset repository or the primary engineering CDE, CDE Sync connects 12D Synergy to ProjectWise. Civil design outputs and survey data flow automatically from 12D Synergy into ProjectWise, ensuring that the asset record is kept current throughout delivery without manual intervention.
12D Synergy integrated with Oracle Aconex Oracle Aconex is frequently mandated for formal document control and correspondence on civil infrastructure programmes where 12D Synergy manages the design and survey environment. CDE Sync connects the two platforms, ensuring that civil outputs from 12D Synergy are reflected accurately in Aconex and that formal correspondence and transmittals in Aconex are accessible to the design team without manual file transfers.
12D Synergy integrated with Procore Procore is widely used for construction management on civil programmes where 12D Synergy handles design and survey data. CDE Sync keeps both environments synchronised, ensuring that civil design outputs from 12D Synergy are available to construction teams in Procore and that construction records flow back accurately for as-built documentation and asset handover.
12D Synergy integrated with Asite On programmes where Asite manages project collaboration and document workflows, CDE Sync connects Asite to 12D Synergy. Civil design and survey teams can continue working in 12D Synergy while relevant documents and metadata are kept current and compliant within Asite, without manual exports or reformatting between environments.
12D Synergy integrated with Microsoft SharePoint Many organisations in the civil and infrastructure sector use Microsoft SharePoint for internal document management alongside 12D Synergy for project delivery. CDE Sync synchronises documents and metadata between the two platforms, ensuring that internal stakeholders in SharePoint have access to current civil design outputs without direct access to 12D Synergy.
12D Synergy integrated with InEight InEight is used across heavy civil, water, and infrastructure programmes where 12D Synergy manages the design and survey environment. CDE Sync connects the two platforms, synchronising civil design outputs and project documents bidirectionally so that project controls and document management teams in InEight always have access to current information from the 12D Synergy environment.
CDE Sync is a no-code, cloud-based platform hosted on Microsoft Azure and SOC 2 Type II certified. It supports multilingual teams, international deployments, and integrates with reporting tools including Power BI.
