Oracle Aconex connects teams by eliminating barriers to collaboration, increasing adoption and data sharing, and capturing a complete project record. Highly configurable, Oracle Aconex provides process visibility and control, backed by an unalterable audit trail that minimizes disputes and keeps schedules on track for successful project completion.


Open Collaboration and Data Sharing

The Oracle Aconex data ownership model drives collaboration and data sharing. Every project organization has their own private workspace and owns their own data, controlling access to their information and what they share. An unalterable audit trail drives fewer disputes and faster resolution. This builds trust, driving adoption and collaboration, creating a single and complete source of project truth.

A trusted and adopted platform, capturing complete process data across the lifecycle, maximizes data quality, providing the visibility and control to better drive performance and improve processes.


Aconex: Connect teams, processes, and data across the entire project lifecycle.

The True Common Data Environment

Aconex is a single central platform, a true Common Data Environment (CDE) for the entire project team. The Oracle Aconex CDE provides inbuilt simplicity that makes it intuitive for users and facilitates open collaboration and data sharing, combined with leading security. The cloud and collaborative model connects teams and processes across the entire supply chain, all on one CDE. This provides control over firewalls, across the entire supply chain and the entire project community.


Secure Document Management

Easily manage millions of documents and models without limits on data or participants, including any size, type, or number of files:

  • Strict version control avoids errors by ensuring everyone is working off the latest documents
  • Custom workflows automate review and approval cycles, reducing complexity, improving data capture, and increasing control
  • Workflow tracking and reporting provides real-time analysis to identify and action bottlenecks before they cause delays
  • Work packaging makes it easier to track and control processes, from design and construction to sign-off and completion


Advanced Communication and Forms

Avoid the limitations of manual correspondence with a standardized digital process providing project-wide access and visibility. From designing forms to creating fields, configure Oracle Aconex to your processes and capture the right data in the right format:

  • Mail routing automates business processes, ensuring best practice and minimizing the chance of human error
  • Easily track process communications, keep up to date on progress, avoid bottlenecks, and reduce RFI turnaround times by 50 percent
  • All correspondence is automatically logged and cannot be deleted, providing a complete project record and unalterable audit trail

Simplified Model Coordination

Connect teams, models, and project data in a secure collaborative environment:

  • Seamlessly share, review, and contribute to models without specialized software
  • Utilize a single platform to raise, communicate, and manage the model coordination process with a dashboard to control and monitor progress
  • Easily import and open Revit files directly within Oracle Aconex
  • Mobile access via the integrated Oracle Aconex app provides access to models and data onsite
  • Built on open BIM standards for data interoperability
