Autodesk Procore Bluebeam Trimble NewformaIs Your IT Protecting—or Slowing—Project Progress?
AEC firms need IT that keeps up with the pace of project delivery. When technology slows you down, it costs you time, margin, and reputation.
Large File Access Slowing Project Teams
BIM models, CAD drawings, and renderings take forever to open. Teams waste hours waiting for files to sync across locations.
- ▸ Multi-gigabyte Revit files crawling over VPN
- ▸ Version conflicts between studio and jobsite
- ▸ Cloud sync failures during critical deadlines
- ▸ Remote teams can't access current project files
- ▸ Backup and recovery untested for large datasets
Jobsite Connectivity Gaps
Job trailers need reliable access to project files, but connectivity is inconsistent. Field teams resort to workarounds that create risk.
- ▸ Inconsistent internet at construction sites
- ▸ No secure way to access Procore from the field
- ▸ Tablets and mobile devices unmanaged
- ▸ USB drives and email attachments as workarounds
- ▸ No visibility into what's happening on-site
Inconsistent Onboarding for New Hires
Every new architect, engineer, or PM has a different onboarding experience. Licenses aren't ready. Logins don't work. Productivity suffers.
- ▸ Autodesk licenses not provisioned in time
- ▸ Project access granted ad-hoc
- ▸ No standard device configuration
- ▸ New hires productive in weeks, not days
- ▸ Security gaps from inconsistent setup
Disconnected Systems Creating Rework
Design changes in Revit don't sync to Procore. Submittals get lost. RFIs go unanswered. The lack of integration costs you time and margin.
- ▸ Manual data entry between systems
- ▸ No single source of truth for project status
- ▸ Bluebeam markups disconnected from model
- ▸ Accounting systems out of sync with project management
- ▸ Closeout documentation scattered across platforms
