IT Support for Architecture
Your designs push boundaries. Your IT should keep up with the file sizes, rendering demands, and collaboration needs that come with them.
Architecture practices run on demanding software — Revit, ArchiCAD, Rhino, and AutoCAD push hardware to its limits. BIM files regularly exceed 500MB, rendering jobs lock up workstations for hours, and multi-site teams need to collaborate on the same model simultaneously. We provide the infrastructure, workstation management, and network performance that lets your team focus on design, not technology.
The Challenges You're Facing
BIM files crash your network every time someone hits save
A 600MB Revit model being saved to a shared drive can bring your entire office network to a crawl. Your team shouldn't have to schedule file saves around each other. Proper network architecture and BIM server management eliminates this entirely.
Rendering jobs lock up workstations for hours
When a partner needs a final render for a client presentation tomorrow, they can't wait 4 hours for their machine to finish processing. Dedicated render capacity — local or cloud — keeps design workstations free for actual design.
Multi-site collaboration feels like passing USB sticks
When your team is split between studio and site, accessing the latest model version shouldn't involve emailing ZIP files or hoping the VPN holds up. Real-time collaboration needs real infrastructure.
How We Help Architecture
BIM & CAD Workstation Management
Hardware spec'd for Revit, ArchiCAD, and Rhino. GPU monitoring, RAM optimisation, and SSD management to keep your design software running at peak performance.
Large Format Plotting & Print
Network plotter configuration, driver management, and colour calibration. A0 prints come out right the first time, not the third.
Project Collaboration Infrastructure
BIM 360, Procore, and shared drive architecture that lets your team collaborate on models in real-time across multiple offices and sites.
Render Pipeline & Cloud Compute
Offload rendering to dedicated hardware or cloud instances. Your design workstations stay responsive while V-Ray or Enscape does its thing elsewhere.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you understand BIM workflows?
Yes. We support Revit, ArchiCAD, Rhino, AutoCAD, and SketchUp. We understand BIM 360 collaboration, central models, worksharing, and the network demands these workflows create.
Can you spec workstations for architecture software?
Absolutely. We build hardware specifications tailored to your software stack — the right GPU, enough RAM for large assemblies, and fast NVMe storage for BIM files.
What about our large format plotters?
We manage network plotter configuration, driver updates, colour calibration, and print queue management. We support HP DesignJet, Canon imagePROGRAF, and Epson wide-format printers.
