The Problem
Two systems. Two versions of reality.
When ACC (Autodesk Forma) and SAP operate independently, every project runs on conflicting data.
- Purchase orders created in ACC are manually re-entered into SAP — every time.
- Finance sees committed costs 2–3 days after decisions have been made on-site.
- WBS, contracts, and vendor data live in disconnected silos.
- Email-based PO approvals are impossible to track.
- Executives have no unified view of cost vs. progress.
With nBridge: contracts, budgets, and approvals sync automatically between both systems in real time, with a full audit trail throughout.
Integration Modules
Pre-built for every critical AEC workflow
- Project Systems (PS · ACC) — WBS auto-sync from ACC into SAP PS. Real-time budget tracking.
- Materials & Procurement (MM · ACC) — Automated PR & PO creation. Material tracking and GR status.
- Finance & Vendors (FI · ACC) — Real-time vendor invoice tracking and milestone payments.
- Sales & Delivery (SD · ACC) — Sold units synced with construction progress.
- Document Management (DMS · ACC) — ACC design files auto-sync with SAP DMS.
Use Cases
Nine common integration requirements
How It Works
A structured path from scoping to go-live
1.Choose Your nBridge Flavour & Connect
Select the deployment variant that fits your infrastructure — SAP BTP (native, for S/4HANA Cloud), ACC Connect / Workato (low-code iPaaS), or OData API & ABAP (direct, for on-premise SAP ECC).
2.Assess, Scope & Configure
A structured Assessment covers Stakeholder Inputs, BIM Process Flowcharts, Application Landscape Review, SAP Integration Scoping, To-Be Process Definition, and Data Ownership Mapping — SAP owns financial/inventory data, ACC owns design/BIM data.
3.Pilot, Test & Go Live
The scoped pilot is developed and deployed in a sandbox, then validated through functional testing, security testing, and stakeholder sign-off before going live.

MENA Smart Cities Programme
A large-scale smart cities project deployed nBridge to connect ACC (Autodesk Forma) with SAP across multiple active construction workstreams. Manual data reconciliation was eliminated entirely.
