Architectural and engineering firms live and die by file access and team coordination. If your CAD files get corrupted or your rendering server goes offline, the project stalls. We help keep projects on track.
Managed IT Support
From licensing AutoCAD and Revit to making sure your file servers stay synced, we manage your entire stack. We support remote workstations, project drives, shared templates, and large-format printing.
Cybersecurity & Compliance
We segment internal and client-facing systems, protect drawings and specs, and implement access control. Client IP is protected with encryption and regular auditing.
Cloud Solutions
We set up cloud storage with version control for large design files, optimize file syncing, and enable remote access for field staff and contractors.
Backup & Disaster Recovery
We run backups for shared drives, file servers, render farms, and project archives. Recovery points are tested regularly.
VoIP & Communications
We configure phone systems that let you connect HQ with field staff and project managers. Call routing, voicemail-to-email, and video integration are included.
