The problem
The MIDP isn't just mandatory: it's the best tool and process to understand the real state of a project in design.
The deliverables plan lives in a spreadsheet nobody checks or updates
The MIDP starts tidy and goes stale within a week. The real status is scattered across emails, chats and Forma/ACC® folders. When the client asks, nobody knows for sure what's been delivered.
Unreliable required-drawings list
Manually-updated spreadsheets. Everyone has their own version. None of them is the truth.
Status scattered across many folders
"Did you upload the drawing?" "Yes, last week." Nobody knew, and nobody can find it.
Untraceable files
The drawing is in the cloud, but nobody knows if it's the one that was planned. Drawing codes are confusing and each consultant uses a different naming convention.
Our Solution
Enable deliverables tracking in four steps
Model the project
Set the involved disciplines, project stages, buildings and levels. It's the base the whole deliverables set is generated from. Scheduled delivery dates are set by project stage and discipline.
2 buildings · 12 floors
Generate the MIDP, or import it from an existing list
Generate the deliverables set from a list curated by project type, or import it by uploading an existing spreadsheet or parsing your Forma/ACC® file names. Codes are fully customizable: use your firm's code standard or start from our curated ISO 19650 based codes.
Link the folders and the status updates itself
Each deliverable points to its real file in Forma/ACC®: the first upload links itself and flips to delivered. If the name or format doesn't match the plan, we flag it.

Track status and alerts
Overdue, due soon and Forma/ACC® mismatches, sorted by urgency. See everything on a dashboard tailored to your needs, filter for what's relevant, get notifications or weekly/monthly updates, and generate reports.
Who it's for
Every role sees what it needs
Project Manager / Design Manager
The mastermind behind every MIDP. Schedules the plan and tells the Task Team what to produce and where to store it in the Forma/ACC® cloud. Tracks project progress and gets alerts for unidentified drawings or ones that don't meet requirements. Dashboard overview; generates reports.
Owner / Head of Project Managers
Sees the whole company picture: which projects are on time and which aren't, which Task Teams cause problems. Sets their deliverable KPIs and tracks them in real time.
BIM Manager
Gets alerts when deliverables don't meet the required format. Makes their job easier when they step into deliverable coding. Generates reports.
Task Team / Design team
Gets the project invitation by email, with the required drawings list (code, name and due date) and the link to the Forma/ACC® folder where to publish them.
MIDP: Master Information Delivery Plan, per the ISO 19650 standard specifications.
FAQ
What people usually ask
- Doesn't Autodesk Forma/ACC® already do this?
- Forma/ACC® stores files, versions them and coordinates models. What it doesn't have is a deliverables register: the list of what should be delivered (ISO code, format, owner, due date) reconciled against what's actually in the folders. Today that's solved by exporting to Power BI or Excel. Kalma is that layer, and it keeps itself up to date.
- How is it different from Plannerly or Morta?
- Plannerly and Morta are broad and need configuring: templates, grids, services. Kalma MIDP Manager is the Project / Design Manager's opinionated board: it generates or imports the MIDP in minutes, couples natively to Forma/ACC® and starts with no consulting.
- Can Kalma MIDP Manager modify my files in Forma/ACC®?
- No. It reads with read-only permission (data:read). It links, compares and alerts, but never writes to your repository.
- Where is the TIDP?
- The TIDP is the list of deliverables the project lead receives from each team (architects, MEP consultants and others). Compiling it is usually a tedious, never-ending step. With Kalma, the Project / Design Manager defines the list of drawings needed per discipline and stage using the wizard, or imports it from an existing list; each Task Team then receives its own required drawing list separately: what they're called, their code and the path to the folder where they publish them at each stage.
- How do I know the drawings are verified and approved?
- Kalma MIDP Manager doesn't replace the Forma/ACC® review and approval process. Project management configures that in the CDE using the existing Review and Issues workflows. Only folders that contain verified drawings are connected and tracked in Kalma.
- What if my naming doesn't follow the ISO 19650 standard?
- Codes are fully customisable: use your firm's code standard or start from our curated ISO 19650 based codes. You set the separator, segment order and per-option codes. When importing from Excel or Forma/ACC®, a panel lets you map which segment of the name maps to each attribute.
- Do the project's design teams have to pay?
- No. They come in invited by email and don't pay for their seat. The model is paid editors, free viewers/subs.
- Does it only connect to Autodesk Forma/ACC®?
- It's our first integration. We'll add more over time, without losing focus on the goal: drawings on time.
- What languages is it in?
- Spanish, English and French. Language is a per-user preference; emails and notifications go out in each recipient's language.
- Is there an app?
- Not yet, but it's on the way.
