Case Study: KBE-NY achieves successful, predictable project outcomes with Autodesk BIM 360

How KBE-NY Achieved Successful Project Outcomes by Deploying Construction Technology

KBE-NY, a metropolitan New York construction firm in the KBE Companies family, faced the challenge of coordinating complex high‑rise and renovation projects across many stakeholders while moving away from entrenched paper workflows. To improve consistency, transparency, and field-to-office connection, the company chose to deploy Autodesk BIM 360 as its integrated construction management platform.

By implementing Autodesk BIM 360 across the project lifecycle (beginning in early 2018), KBE-NY moved to paperless workflows, standardized reporting across its ~30 project managers, and enabled mobile QA/QC with digital punch lists and pinned photos. The shift delivered measurable impacts—trade teams saved thousands of dollars per project by replacing printed drawings with inexpensive tablets, clients receive consistent weekly reports with 10–15 labeled progress photos, and the firm achieved faster closeouts, better risk tracking, and improved transparency company‑wide.
