ENGINEERING & AEC IT SUPPORT
IT Support for Engineering Firms in the Bay Area
Managed IT for Bay Area engineering, architecture, and AEC firms — high-performance workstations, fast access to large CAD and BIM files, protected IP, and reliable networks. Delivered through one flat-fee Managed IT program.
The IT Pressures Engineering Firms Face
Massive CAD and BIM files, demanding workstations, and valuable design IP leave no room for slow, unreliable IT. Engineering and architecture firms need infrastructure that keeps pace with the work.
Design IP You Can't Afford to Lose
Drawings, models, and project data are your firm's most valuable asset. A ransomware event or failed drive without solid backups can wipe out months of billable work and breach client confidentiality.
Slow Files Stall Project Teams
When the network drags or a file server goes down, opening and saving large CAD, Revit, and BIM files crawls — and billable project teams sit idle. We tune and monitor the infrastructure your firm depends on so work keeps moving.
Security & Client Confidentiality
Clients and contracts increasingly require documented cybersecurity, MFA, and data-handling controls. We keep your environment defensible and your evidence ready for client and cyber-insurance reviews.
CAD & BIM Workstations, Generalist IT
AutoCAD, Revit, Civil 3D, SolidWorks, and Bentley tools demand properly specced workstations, GPUs, and storage. You need an IT partner who understands AEC workflows — not a generalist guessing at requirements.
Engineering IT Support, Delivered as Managed IT
We support engineering and architecture firms through our flat-fee Complete Care Managed IT program — help desk, monitoring, security, backups, and vCIO planning bundled under one predictable monthly fee.
Security & IP Protection
MFA, encryption, endpoint protection, security awareness training, and documented controls that protect design IP and satisfy client and cyber-insurance requirements.
Workstations & File Performance
Properly specced CAD/BIM workstations plus 24/7 monitoring of the servers, networks, and storage your large project files depend on — so teams open and save without waiting.
Backup & Disaster Recovery
Encrypted, redundant backups of project files, drawings, and models with tested recovery plans — so a failed drive, ransomware event, or disaster never costs you billable work.
Unlimited Help Desk
Real people who answer fast when a workstation, login, or printer goes down in the middle of a patient visit. Front-desk and clinical staff get unlimited support, no per-ticket fees.
Managed Cybersecurity
Managed firewalls, endpoint protection, email security, and 24/7 threat monitoring that defend your firm's designs, data, and reputation.
Strategic IT Planning (vCIO)
A dedicated advisor who plans technology budgets, hardware refreshes, and compliance roadmaps around your practice's growth — so IT decisions support patient care, not just put out fires.
Engineering Firms Rely on Bay Computing
We're Highly Rated by Bay Area firms and support engineering, architecture, and AEC firms across the Bay Area — from small studios to multi-discipline practices.
