ARKANCE, a global leader in technology and services for the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) and manufacturing industries, a Bluebeam Sapphire Partner, and Autodesk Platinum Partner, will showcase the Be.Smart Connector® at Bluebeam Unbound 2025, September 30–October 2, in Washington, D.C., where it will be a Diamond Sponsor and exhibitor at booth 503.
The Be.Smart Connector is a cloud-based solution that connects Autodesk Construction Cloud® and Bluebeam Studio®. It aligns teams through real-time collaboration, streamlines complex PDF workflows, and ensures reliable access to current project data. Purpose-built for AEC and manufacturing professionals, the solution creates a unified cloud ecosystem that integrates two trusted, industry-leading platforms, equipping teams to work smarter, operate more efficiently, and deliver projects successfully.
Now part of the ARKANCE Be.Smart suite, the Be.Smart Connector will be available in select markets beginning in the U.S. on October 1, following an early adopter program launched in October 2024.
For decades, project teams have struggled with disconnected systems and manual file handling. The Be.Smart Connector eliminates data silos and repetitive tasks such as exporting, uploading, and reconciling PDFs. One of its most impactful capabilities is smart slip sheeting, which automatically preserves markups across revisions, helping teams shorten review cycles, reduce errors, save time, and adopt more standardized, data-driven practices.
“Collaboration without limits is now a reality,” said Greg Arranz, Chief Executive Officer at ARKANCE. “The Be.Smart Connector removes data silos and manual file transfers, delivering a connected, interoperable project ecosystem.”
“This year’s launch of the ARKANCE Connector marks a major step forward in enabling smarter, more integrated project workflows,” said Steve Smith, Director of Partnerships at Bluebeam. “By preserving markups across revisions, it empowers teams to collaborate faster, reduce errors, and maintain complete confidence in their data.”
Building on this momentum, ARKANCE reinforces its leadership in innovation and interoperability by developing technologies that connect platforms, data, and people across the project lifecycle.
Backed by the largest professional services team dedicated to architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) and informed by experience with more than 40,000 customers worldwide, ARKANCE delivers future-ready technology solutions that address customer needs and empower smarter, more efficient project delivery.
