— CDE Sync Value —

Why CDE Sync delivers real business value to AEC Projects.

CDE Sync automates the flow of data and metadata across platforms, eliminating costly manual transfers and reducing project risk. With built-in compliance, audit trails, and zero-touch synchronisation, it empowers your teams to focus on delivery, not data wrangling.

Why CDE Sync Pays for Itself:

Manual: VMs, Powershell, Scripting With CDE Sync: Automatic Integrations
$100K–$3M+ annual hidden manual transfer costs <6% of manual cost, fixed subscription
20+ hours/week wasted per skilled resource Zero-touch automation, freeing expert time
High risk of version errors and rework Version control & ISO 19650 compliance
No audit trails or activity reporting Full traceability, logging, and reporting
Unscalable as projects grow Increased ROI with higher project volumes
Unpredictable cost overruns Predictable, budget-friendly pricing
Slow, manual decision cycles Real-time data for faster, confident decisions
Risk of missed deadlines & lost revenue Reliable sync with 99.9% uptime SLA
Inconsistent security controls Enterprise-grade security on Microsoft Azure

The more CDEs you connect, the greater the saving:

This chart shows how cost per project decreases as the number of CDE IDs purchased increases - delivering powerful economies of scale. Organisations that scale with CDE Sync not only simplify integration, but also drive exponential saving in their portfolio.

— CDE Sync Savings —

CDE Sync saves projects both time and cost.

  • ~$2-3 Million expenditure per project per year on resourcing for manual transfers of data between CDE platforms.

  • ~$1 Million expenditure per project per year on resourcing for manual transfers of data between CDE platforms.

  • ~$100-200k expenditure per project per year on resourcing for manual transfers of data between CDE platforms.

Poorly integrated Common Data Environments (CDEs) in construction projects can lead to significant time delays and increased costs. A study highlighted that inefficiencies in data management could add 20% to 25% to project costs - Asite.
