CDE Sync™ + Oracle Aconex.

Overview: 

Oracle Aconex is the CDE of record on many major infrastructure and capital works programs, which usually means the contractors and consultants delivering into it are running their own platform alongside, and re-entering the same documents and metadata twice. CDE Sync™ automates that exchange in both directions, keeping Aconex consistent with every other connected platform. Retiring a platform altogether rather than running an ongoing sync? CDE Migrate™ handles that one-off move instead, preserving version history, metadata and audit trails intact. 

Who it's for: 

Document Controllers, Digital Engineers, Information Managers and Project Managers running Oracle Aconex alongside another CDE. 

What CDE Sync™ does for Oracle Aconex users: 

• Synchronises documents, models and metadata between Oracle Aconex and every other connected CDE 

• Maps metadata fields automatically against the target platform's schema 

• Preserves transmittal and version history across the sync, so the Aconex record stays complete 

• Logs every transfer for audit and compliance purposes 

• Pairs with Issues Sync™ to keep issues, RFIs and defects raised in Oracle Aconex connected across every other CDE on your project 

How it connects: 

CDE Sync™ connects to Oracle Aconex through a dedicated service account and secure API integration, configured through CDE Sync™'s no-code wizard alongside your Aconex administrator. 

Also syncs with: 

Autodesk Forma (BIM360/ACC), Bentley ProjectWise, Microsoft SharePoint, Procore, Oracle Aconex, 12d Synergy, Asite, InEight, Trimble, Bluebeam, Egnyte, Dalux, RIB, and Azure Blob.

FAQs: 

Can CDE Sync™ push documents into our client's Aconex project automatically?

> Yes, this is one of the most common Aconex use cases. 

How long does an Aconex connection take to set up?

> Typically 15 to 30 minutes. 

Can we sync in both directions, or only one way?

> CDE Sync™ supports inbound, outbound and bi-directional syncs, configured per project. 

Does this affect our existing Aconex workflows or transmittals?

> No, CDE Sync™ preserves your existing Aconex transmittal and workflow structure. 

What if we want to migrate to Oracle Aconex entirely, not just sync?

> That's CDE Migrate™, our one-off migration service. It moves everything at once, preserving version history, metadata and audit trails, rather than keeping platforms continuously synchronised. 

Can this also sync issues, RFIs and defects, not just documents and models?

> Yes, that's handled by Issues Sync™, which keeps issues logged in Aconex connected to every other CDE on your project.
