As more complexity is added to construction management and project workflows, the demands on IT infrastructure will only increase.

Whether your computing is all managed in-house or you use cloud-based hosted services, reliability is essential. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Fast broadband connectivity is also increasingly important, especially if you are transmitting high bandwidth files such as image-rich designs and drone footage. As more wireless technology makes it into the construction industry, the need for powerful, reliable wi-fi also increases.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> IT systems should also be scalable where possible. Whether growth is planned or unexpected, delays caused by limited IT networks can hamper the ability to beat competitors to lucrative contracts. The much talked about &#8216;Internet of Things&#8217; is set to see billions more devices connecting into supply chain networks, potentially overwhelming older systems with data.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Security is paramount in the post-GDPR environment and every construction company is expected to design their IT system with security in mind. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This means you will need to have systems in place for backing up, protecting, retrieving and destroying sensitive information. Failure on any of these points could expose your business to millions of pounds in fines not to mention damage to your reputation.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1544544929295{padding-top: 20px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;background-color: #f0f0f0 !important;}&#8221;]<strong><i>\u201cHaving just set up our new office, MPC found ourselves in need of technical support to establish our internet, PC&#8217;s and telephone system. We initially chose Limbtec for this as they are known to share the MPC values of integrity, reliability and good customer service. Limbtec did not disappoint! like MPC Plastering Contractors, Martin saw the value I n taking time to sit down with us to understand our needs. He then made relevant suggestions and used all this information to produce a suitable Internet\/telephone package for us. Once the office space was ready, Martin showed his uncompromising pursuits of precision by visiting on several occasions to set up and check over the new systems to ensure every part was working perfectly. Martins keen eye for detail, comparable to our own meant that our every need was met including those which we hadn&#8217;t thought of!
