Construction IT Lives Outside the Office
Most IT focuses on the office. Construction IT lives at jobsites, on tablets, and in field-to-office data flows that generic MSPs don’t plan for.
Jobsite IT is mobile-first
Tablets, mobile devices, and field laptops are the primary endpoints — not desktops. IT must be designed for that reality, not retrofit to it.
Connectivity at remote sites
Jobsite Wi-Fi, cellular failover, and connectivity for office trailers — coverage at the actual work location matters more than HQ Wi-Fi.
Construction-specific software
Procore, Sage 300 Construction, Foundation, Buildertrend, PlanGrid, Bluebeam — the software stack is industry-specific and needs vertical expertise.
BIM and CAD requirements
Revit, AutoCAD, SketchUp, Navisworks — BIM workstations need GPU horsepower, large monitors, fast storage. Different specs than office workstations.
Subcontractor coordination
Sharing files with subs, electronic plan review, change orders, and approvals — secure file sharing and DMS designed for AEC workflows.
Safety / compliance documentation
OSHA, EM 385 (Corps of Engineers), state-specific safety reporting — documentation systems and audit-ready record-keeping.
Construction-Specific IT Services
Six core capabilities sized for AEC firms, GCs, sub-contractors, and the field-to-office workflows that define construction.
Construction Software Support
Procore, Sage 300, Foundation, Buildertrend, PlanGrid, Bluebeam — ongoing support, integration, and admin for construction-specific platforms.

Hiring a single in-house IT person costs roughly the same as a full Datastrive managed support agreement — but a single person can’t cover 24/7, can’t be a senior network engineer and a cybersecurity specialist and a vCIO at the same time, and goes on vacation. Managed IT support gives you depth, redundancy, and predictable cost without the recruiting risk.
