You think Revit is holding back AEC? look at Civil 3D. Our needs are much less and performance of "models" or 2.5D entities is slow and evolutionary tech built on 1980s CAD. We created Builterra.com to do the same thing you are looking to do here...one source of Geospatial truth without Esri, all loaded into an Azure database. We came at it from the Construction Management and Inspection angle and just now are coming back to Mapping and ultimately Web based design components connected to the construction objects. It's the technical convergence where this is the best solution for AEC. With open or common data standards, you could access our cloud (owner side bids and design) database, render it as you need to and collaborate easily.
