# What's New in 2027: SDS2, Steel Genie & Manufacton

- THURSDAY, OCT 29, 2026  |  10:00 AM (CDT)

---

On October 28 you get a **[first look at what's new in 2027](https://go.sds2.com/sds2-2027-global-launch-see-whats-next-for-steel-and-construction?utm_campaign=54449725-2026-2027%20Launch&utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-8SyAin_C_Pht9D4NDXEoMF0gwKVeTz0hKV-8iwxpW445aLoJG2NS0mk7GgyERK5gvHfRq-&hsLang=en)**. This webinar is where we get into more details.

This is the release your team has been waiting for. Every project has the same pressure points: too much manual work, too little time, and too much risk when information doesn't move cleanly between teams. SDS2 2027 takes direct aim at all three, helping you avoid the rework that eats into margin, keep drawings and models moving without manual cleanup, and find answers faster with new AI-powered tools built right into your workflow. Join us for a first look at everything that's new, straight from the team that built it.

We'll also bring you highlights from Steel Genie's last few releases, plus a quick update on what's new in Manufacton.

## What to expect:

- **SDS2**: Easier access to model intelligence, faster drawing workflows that stay in sync as your model changes, and more automation across modeling, connection design, and review
- **Steel Genie**: The biggest highlights from the last three releases, including faster scope review, expanded automated takeoff, and new direct connections to Tekla PowerFab, Strumis, and Bluebeam Studio
- **Manufacton**: A quick look at what's new, including custom fields, scan to load for shipping, and a new Precast to Bimplus integration
