Plannerly

BIM management platform focused on ISO 19650 execution plans, standards and deliverable tracking.

BIMISO 19650BEP
Overview

Plannerly is a cloud platform built specifically around ISO 19650's BIM Execution Plan (BEP) process -- rather than being a general project-management or CDE tool that happens to support BIM, it's purpose-built for the specific, often painful workflow of writing, maintaining and enforcing a BEP across a project team. That focus shows in its feature set: pre-built BEP templates and standards libraries, deliverable tracking tied directly to a common data environment, IDS import/export for automated model checking against those standards, and a built-in BIM training and certification academy for onboarding staff onto the standards a firm defines.

Pricing is transparent and tiered by seat: a free plan exists for basic use, with paid tiers running from $39/month per user (Individual) up to $267/month (Enterprise) for organizations needing broader standards management and integrations. That's a meaningfully lower price point than most CDE or BIM-management platforms in this catalog, positioning Plannerly as an add-on standards layer rather than a full project-delivery platform replacement.

The customer roster is genuinely substantial for a company at Plannerly's visibility level: its own site names Amazon, AECOM, Parsons, EllisDon, Tetra Tech, Pomerleau, AECON, the Greater Toronto Airports Authority (GTAA), Zutari and Shimizu as users -- a mix of hyperscale owner-operators, major international engineering firms and general contractors across North America, Africa and Japan. That's a wider and more geographically diverse logo list than most emerging BIM tools can show.

Integration is a practical strength: Plannerly connects to Autodesk Construction Cloud/BIM 360 rather than asking teams to abandon their existing CDE, positioning itself as a standards-and-compliance layer that sits alongside a firm's existing model-management tooling rather than competing with it directly.

Editor’s takeBIM•STACK editor's take: Plannerly solves a real, specific, and commonly underserved problem -- BEP creation and enforcement is often handled today in scattered Word documents and spreadsheets that nobody actually checks against the live model. Plannerly's IDS-based automated checking and academy-style training turn that into an actual enforced, teachable workflow, and its named customer list (Amazon, AECOM, GTAA) suggests real traction beyond a niche. The tradeoff is scope: it's a standards and compliance layer, not a full authoring or coordination platform, so firms should expect to run it alongside, not instead of, their existing CDE.

Because Plannerly's workflow maps directly onto the ISO 19650 BEP process, teams already familiar with that standard will find the platform's structure intuitive; teams new to ISO 19650 face a steeper curve, though the built-in training academy is specifically designed to close that gap. The IDS-based model checking requires some initial setup to define the standards a project will be checked against, but that investment pays off as an automated, repeatable check rather than a manual review each time.

Pros
Purpose-built for ISO 19650 BEPsTemplates, standards libraries and deliverable tracking built specifically around the BIM Execution Plan process, not a generic PM tool.
Automated model checking via IDSIDS import/export lets teams check delivered models against defined standards automatically rather than manually.
Transparent, accessible pricingFree plan plus published paid tiers from $39/mo, lower entry cost than most CDE or BIM-management platforms.
Strong, diverse customer rosterNamed users include Amazon, AECOM, EllisDon, GTAA and Shimizu across North America, Africa and Japan.
Built-in training and certification academyOnboards staff onto a firm's own BIM standards rather than relying on external training providers.
Integrates with Autodesk Construction Cloud/BIM 360Sits alongside existing CDE tooling rather than requiring a wholesale platform switch.
Cons
Narrow scope versus full CDE platformsFocused on BEPs and standards compliance, not full model coordination, issue tracking or document control.
Zero third-party review baseNo independent review count is available yet to corroborate the vendor's own customer claims.
Enterprise tier pricing jumps sharplyThe Enterprise tier at $267/mo per user is a large step up from the $39/mo Individual tier.
Best value depends on ISO 19650 adoptionFirms not already following ISO 19650-style BEP processes will get less out of Plannerly's core workflow.

Best For
  • Firms formally following ISO 19650Plannerly's entire structure is built around that standard's BEP process.
  • Owners and GCs managing BIM standards across many consultantsCentralized standards, templates and IDS checking keep multiple teams aligned to one spec.
  • Firms wanting to formalize ad hoc BEP practicesReplaces scattered Word/Excel BEP documents with a trackable, enforceable system.
  • Teams needing BIM standards training at scaleThe built-in academy onboards new staff without external training contracts.
Consider Alternatives If
  • You need a full common data environment, not just BEP managementCatenda Hub, BIMcollab or Trimble Connect handle broader model coordination and issue tracking.
  • You don't follow ISO 19650 and want general project managementA general construction PM platform may fit better than a standard-specific tool.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Plannerly actually manage?

ISO 19650 BIM Execution Plans (BEPs), standards, templates and deliverable tracking, plus IDS-based model checking against those standards.

How much does Plannerly cost?

A free plan is available; paid tiers run from $39/month per user (Individual) up to $267/month (Enterprise).

Who uses Plannerly?

Plannerly's own site names Amazon, AECOM, Parsons, EllisDon, Tetra Tech, Pomerleau, AECON, GTAA, Zutari and Shimizu as users.

Does Plannerly replace a CDE like BIM 360?

No -- Plannerly integrates with Autodesk Construction Cloud/BIM 360 as a standards and compliance layer rather than replacing a firm's CDE.

Does Plannerly include training?

Yes, it includes a built-in BIM training and certification academy for onboarding staff onto a firm's standards.
