The construction industry places special demands on IT: employees work on changing construction sites, plans must be available on mobile devices, project data must be synchronized between office and construction site, and robust devices must withstand harsh conditions. At the same time, project management tools, CAD software, and document management must work seamlessly together. We at Leftclick understand the challenges of the construction industry and offer IT solutions that work reliably both in the office and on the construction site – robust, mobile, and secure.
Our Solutions for Construction
Concrete building blocks that make the biggest difference in this industry.
Robust tablets, smartphones, and laptops for construction site use. Water and dust-proof, with LTE/5G for internet connection even without WLAN. Mobile device management for central administration of all devices.
Temporary WLAN solutions for construction sites: weatherproof access points, LTE/5G routers, and secure VPN connections to the office. Quick setup, easy dismantling at project completion.
High-performance workstations for CAD software (AutoCAD, Revit, ArchiCAD) and central storage solutions for large plan files with automatic backups.
Integration of construction-specific project management tools (e.g., NEVARIS, RIB iTWO, MS Project) with time tracking, material management, and cost control.
Central management of all construction project documents: plans, contracts, protocols, photos. Versioning, access controls, and mobile availability on all devices.
Cloud-based project platforms enable all project participants (architects, planners, client) secure access to current plans and documents – from anywhere.
Mobile apps for work time tracking, performance reports, and material recording directly on the construction site. Automatic synchronization with payroll.
Automatic backups of all project data, plans, and documents. Swiss data centers guarantee security and quick recovery in case of data loss.
Practical Examples from Construction
Typical scenarios — how we implement solutions in real projects.
Construction Company with Mobile Site Equipment
A construction company equipped foremen and site managers with robust tablets. We implemented mobile device management, integrated project management software, and enabled offline access to plans. Result: 30% time savings through digital reporting.
Architecture Office with BIM Server
An architecture office wanted to work BIM-based. We installed high-performance CAD workstations, a central BIM server, and NAS systems for large amounts of data. Several architects can now work simultaneously on 3D models.
General Contractor with Project Cloud
A general contractor needed a platform for collaboration with subcontractors. We implemented a cloud solution where all project participants have access to current plans, protocols, and documents – with version control and access rights.
Master Builder with Construction Site WLAN
A master builder needed WLAN on a large construction site for 50 employees. We installed weatherproof access points, LTE routers as internet connection, and VPN connection to the office. After project completion, everything was dismantled and reused for the next construction site.
Challenges in Construction
What matters most — and what we make sure is covered.
Security & Data Protection
Data protection and IT security must also be ensured in the construction industry – especially for sensitive construction projects.
GDPR-compliant processing of personnel data
Secure storage of confidential construction plans and tenders
Access controls for different project participants
Encrypted data transmission between construction site and office
Mobile device management with remote wipe in case of device loss
Regular backups protect against data loss
Data sovereignty in Swiss data centers
Documentation of all access to sensitive project data
Technology Stack
