IT for Architects
No two architectural firms operate similarly;
Your IT should be as flexible as your business.
Tailored IT Support and Solutions for Architects like you
No two architectural firms operate the same way – your tools, workflows, and client demands are unique. That’s why IT support isn’t just about fixing issues; it’s about understanding how you work and designing solutions that allow you to work more effectively and securely.
While there’s something nostalgic about a draughtsman’s table being used to sketch the next masterpiece, the reality is that technology has become the basis of architecture. Whether managing large BIM files, creating lifelike designs in virtual reality, or securing sensitive client data, effective IT support can make or break your business operations.
Given the importance of tailored IT solutions, it is critical to choose the right support partner who understands the specific challenges of the architectural industry. With IT designed for your firm’s needs, you can focus on what you do best: creating designs without technology getting in the way. When you operate in an industry where precision and speed are everything, this can be the difference between success and failure.

David Morley Architects Case Study:
A Seamless Cloud Migration
Following the collapse of our existing server, an efficient migration was critical to ensuring the practice could continue to operate. With the tremendous guidance of Ingenious and assistance from their technicians, we were fully functional within 48 hours, with just 3 hours of practice-wide downtime. Following the migration to a cloud-based service, our efficiency has increased, our security has been significantly upgraded, and our workflows have been altered to suit a flexible work-life balance. Considering the daunting prospect of migrating, the full process was effective and has reinforced the practices infrastructure for future growth.

FAQs
Not long ago, having paper, a pencil, and a T-square may have been enough to build houses, but today, architecture is built on technology. Most architectural firms have traded pen and paper for digital design tools, CAD software, and cloud-based collaboration. While this modernisation has significantly increased architects’ productivity, it has also brought new challenges, like slow devices, software compatibility issues, lost data, and cyber security risks.
The right technology partner can help with all of these problems. With Ingenious, you’ll have optimised hardware that runs design software without delays, seamless access to your files anytime, anywhere, and proactive security to keep your sensitive data safe.
When deciding on an MSP, ensure your business needs align fully with their services. Choose a provider that truly understands your business, the architecture industry, and your work. Don’t settle for just expertise or experience – the ideal IT support should have both.
Moreover, in architecture, every deadline matters, and every delay costs you time and money. If your IT provider only swoops in when things go south, you’re already behind. You need an MSP that works proactively.
As an architectural firm, you likely have to deal with a lot of back-and-forth between clients and colleagues, sending over large files. This, of course, can expose your business to Cyber Security risks. To ensure nothing gets lost or stolen along the way, we’ve created a solution designed specifically for businesses like yours. Our feature-rich Data Platform has everything you need to share and collaborate on these substantial files effortlessly.
Moreover, when you partner with Ingenious, we’ll set up your firm with continuous network monitoring, multi-factor authentication, encryption protocols, and other tools to ensure that every piece of data is transmitted securely.
With over 20+ years in the managed IT services space, we’ve learned that there is no one-size-fits-all approach. We know that every architectural firm has different needs, which is why we tailor our services to support businesses of all sizes.
If you’re a small firm just starting out, we provide cost-effective, flexible solutions that scale as you grow, ensuring your IT supports, not limits, your ambitions. If you’re a mid-sized firm or a large practice, we’ll make sure your technology aligns with your business demands.
