Construction IT Support
Bid deadlines do not move, and neither does the schedule. Vintage IT Services in Austin, Texas keeps general contractors, subcontractors, and builders connected and protected, from the main office to the last job site trailer.
Managed IT support for construction covers the management of computers, servers, networks, job site connectivity, and the project applications your teams work in, for general contractors, specialty subcontractors, heavy civil and site work firms, homebuilders, and construction management companies.
Our specialists provide the right blend of security, and support around the way construction actually runs, so your people stay productive whether they are at headquarters, in a trailer, or standing in the field.
Features of our Managed IT Support for Construction
Job Site Connectivity & Trailer Setup
Internet, wireless networking, firewalls, and secure connections for job site trailers and temporary offices, including cellular failover so a cut line does not stop the project.
Construction Software Support
Support for the platforms your projects run on, including project management, estimating, accounting, and plan markup applications such as Procore, Autodesk Construction Cloud, Sage, Viewpoint, and Bluebeam, along with the workstations, servers, and networks behind them.
Mobile Devices & Field Crew Support
Central management of the phones, tablets, and rugged devices your superintendents and crews carry, with security policies, application deployment, and remote wipe if a device is lost on site.
Plan, Model & Large File Management
Storage, sync, and backup engineered for drawings, BIM models, photo documentation, and drone captures, so large files open, save, and share without the wait.
Cybersecurity & Ransomware Protection
Layered defense across the office and the field, including managed endpoint protection, network security, and continuous monitoring for the attacks that increasingly target contractors.
Wire Fraud & Payment Email Security
Email security, encryption, and verification controls that protect pay applications, change orders, and lien waivers from the invoice and banking-detail fraud aimed at construction payments.
Backup & Disaster Recovery
Evaluation and ongoing protection of accounting, project, and document data, with tested recovery procedures so a failure never costs you a project record or a payroll run.
Cloud Services & Hosted Desktops
Fully managed Microsoft 365, Azure, and hosted desktop solutions that give office and field staff the same tools from anywhere, without the cost of buying and refreshing server hardware.
24/7 Monitoring Services
Systems that watch servers, desktops, and network devices around the clock to proactively identify problem areas before they interrupt a work day.
Service Desk for Office and Field
Responsive help desk support for estimators, project managers, accounting staff, and field crews, with issue logging and onsite dispatch when a remote fix is not enough.
Hardware Procurement, Staging & Lifecycle
Specifying, ordering, staging, tracking, and documenting workstations, laptops, tablets, printers, and plotters, so a new project office stands up quickly and closes out cleanly.
Compliance & Owner Security Requirements
Support for the technical controls and documentation behind cyber insurance applications, owner and general contractor prequalification questionnaires, and federal contract requirements such as NIST 800-171 and CMMC.
The Benefits for Construction Companies
Connect Every Job Site
A project office is only useful once it is on the network. We plan, install, and support connectivity for trailers and temporary offices, including wireless and cellular failover for sites where a permanent circuit has not arrived yet.
Superintendents, project managers, and field crews get secure access to plans, email, and project systems from the site, as if they were sitting at headquarters.
Protect Payments and Project Data
Construction has become a favorite target for ransomware and for the email fraud that quietly reroutes a progress payment, and one successful attempt can cost more than a year of IT budget.
We layer security across email, endpoints, and the network, backed by managed backups and tested recovery, so both your money and your project records stay where they belong.
IT That Scales With Your Backlog
Construction workloads move in waves, and technology should move with them. We stand up new project offices, onboard project and seasonal staff quickly, and retire equipment cleanly when a job closes out.
Vintage IT Services offers guaranteed service levels at a guaranteed price, so preventive maintenance, monitoring, and best-practice management tools arrive in one predictable monthly fee.
Our support plans are available to construction companies with:
- An on-premise network for firms that prefer to keep servers and project data at the main office
- A hybrid environment that mixes on-premise systems with hosted and cloud solutions across job sites
- A fully cloud-based operation running project, accounting, and document systems from anywhere
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of construction companies do you support?
We support general contractors, specialty subcontractors in trades such as electrical, mechanical, and plumbing, heavy civil and site work firms, homebuilders and residential developers, and construction management companies across Austin and Central Texas.
Do you support Procore, Sage, Viewpoint, and Bluebeam?
Yes. We support the workstations, servers, networks, and user access behind the project management, estimating, accounting, and plan markup platforms construction firms rely on, and we coordinate directly with the software vendor when an issue belongs to the application itself.
Can you get internet and Wi-Fi to a job site trailer?
Yes. We plan and install connectivity for trailers and temporary offices, including wired and wireless networking, firewalls, and cellular failover for sites where a permanent circuit is not available yet.
How do you protect us from wire fraud on payment applications?
Through layered email security, encryption, multi-factor authentication, and domain protections, combined with staff awareness training and verification practices for any change to banking or payment details.
Can you scale support up and down as projects start and finish?
Yes. Support plans are built around your headcount and locations, so new project offices and seasonal staff can be added quickly and removed once a job closes out.
Do you offer fixed monthly pricing?
Yes. Support plans are delivered at guaranteed service levels for a fixed monthly fee, and we can also work alongside an existing internal IT resource through our co-managed IT services.
