IT support for engineering firms in New York City
We look after the systems your engineers depend on: workstations fast enough for large models and long analyses, storage for point clouds and survey data, and a controlled way to exchange files with the rest of the project team.
Sound familiar?
- Civil 3D corridors and surfaces take too long to rebuild on the machines you have.
- Point clouds and survey data are too big for the file server and too slow over the network.
- A structural or energy model ties up a workstation for hours while an analysis runs.
- Engineers in two offices or at home work from copies of the same files and lose track of which is current.
- Sealed drawings and calculations need to stay findable and protected for years after a project closes.
- Architects and contractors send backgrounds and models through a dozen different file-sharing services.
- Licenses for design and analysis software are tracked in a spreadsheet nobody updates.
- An engineer's laptop fails right before a submission, and there is no ready replacement.
The software you run
We do not check your calculations or set your drafting standards. What we handle is the infrastructure that design and analysis software depends on.
- Autodesk Civil 3D, Revit and AutoCAD for design and drafting
- Structural analysis tools such as ETABS, RISA or SAP2000
- Bluebeam Revu for markups and reviews
- Autodesk ReCap for point clouds and scan data
- Autodesk Forma (formerly Autodesk Construction Cloud) for sharing models with project teams
- Microsoft 365 for email, Teams and SharePoint
In practice that means workstations with the processor speed and memory for large models and long analyses, storage that can hold point clouds and survey data, reliable access between offices, and long-term protection for sealed work.
What we handle
Workstations for design and analysis
Machines specified for Civil 3D, Revit and analysis runs, with HP Z-series available through our HP partnership.
Storage for large datasets
File servers and storage sized for point clouds, survey data and large models, with fast access in the office.
File exchange
A controlled way to send and receive backgrounds and models with architects, contractors and clients.
Long-term archives
Protected, searchable archives for closed projects, sealed drawings and calculations.
Licensing and accounts
A current record of software licenses and user accounts, updated as people join, leave and change roles.
Multi-office access
Secure, reliable access to project files across offices and from home.
What good looks like
- Models rebuild and analyses run without tying up the day.
- Large datasets live somewhere fast, backed up and easy to find.
- Closed projects are archived and protected for as long as you need them.
- Files from outside firms arrive in one controlled place.
