CDE Sync for Bentley ProjectWise

Connecting Bentley ProjectWise to Every Major CDE Platform

Bentley ProjectWise is one of the most established and trusted Common Data Environments in the engineering and infrastructure sector. It is the platform of choice for many owner-operators, asset managers, and engineering organisations managing long-term infrastructure assets across transport, energy, utilities, and defence.

However, the project teams delivering work into a ProjectWise environment often use a range of other CDE platforms. Contractors, subcontractors, and specialist consultants may be working in Autodesk, Aconex, Procore, or Asite, creating a persistent challenge around keeping project data consistent, traceable, and compliant as it moves between environments.

CDE Sync by Utopia Digital solves that problem. It automates the bidirectional synchronisation of files, metadata, and version control between Bentley ProjectWise and every other major CDE platform, without manual intervention, without code, and without compromising data integrity.

1. Bentley ProjectWise integrated with Autodesk BIM 360, ACC, and Forma Autodesk platforms are widely used by design and construction teams delivering into ProjectWise-managed asset environments. CDE Sync automates the flow of models, documents, and metadata between Autodesk and ProjectWise, preserving version history and ensuring ISO 19650 metadata compliance is maintained on both sides of the connection.

2. Bentley ProjectWise integrated with Oracle Aconex On large capital programmes where Aconex is used for correspondence and formal document control, ProjectWise often serves as the engineering data repository. CDE Sync connects the two platforms, ensuring that documents issued through Aconex are reflected accurately in ProjectWise and that engineering teams are not duplicating effort across both systems.

3. Bentley ProjectWise integrated with Procore Procore is frequently used by construction and site management teams on programmes where ProjectWise is the primary engineering CDE. CDE Sync keeps both environments aligned, synchronising document updates and metadata changes bidirectionally so that field teams in Procore and engineering teams in ProjectWise are always working from the same current information.

4. Bentley ProjectWise integrated with Asite Asite is used across a range of international infrastructure and transport programmes. CDE Sync connects Asite to ProjectWise, enabling project teams to maintain consistent document records across both platforms without manual file transfers or metadata reformatting between environments.

5. Bentley ProjectWise integrated with Microsoft SharePoint Many engineering organisations use Microsoft SharePoint for internal document management alongside ProjectWise for project delivery. CDE Sync synchronises documents and metadata between the two environments, ensuring that SharePoint users have access to current project records without needing direct access to ProjectWise.

6. Bentley ProjectWise integrated with InEight InEight is used on heavy civil, energy, and industrial programmes where ProjectWise serves as the engineering repository. CDE Sync connects InEight to ProjectWise, synchronising files and metadata so that project management and document control teams working across both platforms maintain a single, consistent project record.

7. Bentley ProjectWise integrated with 12D Synergy 12D Synergy is widely used on civil and survey-intensive programmes in Australia and New Zealand, where ProjectWise often serves as the long-term asset repository. CDE Sync connects the two platforms, enabling civil design and survey teams to work in 12D Synergy while ensuring that models and documents are kept current in ProjectWise throughout delivery.

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.
