About Forma Board

Forma Board is a collaborative visual workspace included with Forma Site Design, Data Management and Forma Data Management Essentials. It helps AECO teams deliver design reviews without losing BIM context.

Use Board to review, iterate, and coordinate in a visual workspace built for design exploration. Compare options, align direction, and present your work clearly while staying connected to live project data.

What's possible with boards

Feature Description
Connected design reviews Place linked Revit sheets and views, Site Design proposals and analyses, and other project references directly on the board. Keep review activity aligned to live BIM data instead of static exports.
Option comparison and visual alignment Drag and arrange model views, analysis outputs, and references into flexible layouts. Compare alternatives side by side and structure content using frames to support clear design narratives and stakeholder alignment.
Lightweight markups and feedback Add annotations, markups, and comment threads directly in the workspace. Capture contextual feedback and maintain visibility into evolving decisions during concept and schematic phases.
Collaborative workspace Support multi-user collaboration sessions and control access to shared boards. Consolidate asynchronous input and stakeholder alignment in one connected environment.
Presentation-ready workflow Move from working sessions to presentation mode without rebuilding slides or duplicating content. Share boards digitally or export a PDF for record-keeping.
