Senior technology leader will guide new AI solutions for AECO firms
BOSTON, Sept. 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Newforma, the market leader in project and information management for the architecture, engineering, construction and owner (AECO) industry, today unveiled its bold AI vision, paired with the announcement of Benjamin Bazso as Senior Vice President of Engineering.
With Bazso’s expertise and an unwavering commitment to innovation, Newforma is answering the call for transformative solutions in the AECO space, starting with the industry’s most acute pain point: email management.
In the AECO sector, email is the backbone of project documentation; over 75% of case evidence in court is sourced from email. Yet, employees waste two to three hours everyday hunting for critical communications, while 42% of firms anticipate mounting legal disputes due to missing email records. The consequences: millions lost in productivity and an unignorable level of risk.
“AI isn’t just another technology; it’s the defining advantage for forward-thinking AECO firms,” said Carl Veillette, Chief Product Officer at Newforma. “For decades, companies have struggled with scattered information and costly mistakes. At Newforma, we’re using AI to make silos obsolete, turn risk into clarity and reclaim hours for innovation, right where it matters most.”
With Bazso at the helm, Newforma is fast-tracking breakthrough tools that capture, classify and seamlessly connect every project. At the vanguard is the comprehensive Newforma Konekt, which provides firms with a window into all relevant project information.
“The AECO industry is ready to leap forward, and Newforma is here to lead that charge,” said Bazso. “Together, we’re empowering teams with AI that doesn’t just automate tasks, but also safeguards their projects, protects their reputations and unlocks potential. The future of building, designing and delivering is about intelligence and visibility at every step, and that future starts today.”
Newforma’s bold roadmap is powered by visionary leadership, robust partnerships and public and private investment. From email management to the next wave of intelligent project solutions, Newforma is setting a new benchmark for the AECO industry—one where risk is minimized, collaboration thrives and every professional operates with the clarity and confidence only AI can provide.
Bazso is a veteran of the technology space, having previously held senior-level leadership roles at Samsung Ads and Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. His role at Newforma is focused on aligning a technological roadmap with clients’ business goals.
“This is more than progress; it’s transformation,” said Bazso. “Newforma is shaping the future of AECO, where intelligent project and information management is the foundation for every success, and the industry’s greatest challenges become its greatest opportunities.”
