We understand the AEC industry workflows, how the supply chain collaborates and how information is shared at every stage from design to construction to operation.

Audits and Health Checks

For all our customers we make sure the foundations are all in place and working together. We provide a starter audit to evaluate the configuration of your infrastructure and network, including servers and backup solutions, latest software and how you’re using it, workstation optimisation, and all other technologies in use (cloud and virtualisation services for example).

Preventive (Scheduled) Maintenance

Our regularly scheduled maintenance actions will prevent breakdowns and failures, whether of equipment or applications. Activities include equipment checks, and partial or complete overhaul of your network configuration.

Proactive Monitoring: We also provide constant monitoring services for the hardware and applications that make up your network. We look for weakness or failure, issuing alerts when a fault is detected, and rapidly identifying the root cause of the problem.

License Management

We take the administration complexities out of your business and ensure that your Autodesk Licenses are always current, comprehensive in line with your usage, and managed in an error-free way.

Ensure you have the correct license types whether by named user, stand-alone, or network.
