Industry solution
IT for civil engineers and architects
Plans, projects and files travel with you for many years. We build the IT so data stays reliably stored, protected and easy to find.
A design office works with large files and long project timelines. CAD and BIM models, renderings, correspondence and project files belong together and have to be cleanly managed. The IT should keep up with that pace.
Why an IT Check
Why an IT Check matters especially in a planning office
Under section 3 ZTG 2019, civil engineers are persons vested with public faith. What you issue within your authority has to stay unaltered, traceable and findable. On top of that comes the duty of confidentiality under section 14 ZTG 2019.
Plans and project files travel with you for many years, often longer than the hardware they sit on. The IT Check looks at whether your data is reliably stored, who can reach it, what is reachable from outside and whether your backups can genuinely be restored.
Sections 3 and 14 ZTG 2019, Article 32 GDPR. This is not legal advice. We assess the technical and organisational measures of your IT only. What applies in your case is best clarified with your professional body or a legal partner. To the IT CheckWhat is different in your field
The topics we keep particularly in view at design offices.
Large plans and models
CAD and BIM files are large and shared across the team. Storage, network and versioning should be designed for that, not patched together over time.
Long project lifetimes
Projects stay with you for years. Files, plans and correspondence have to remain accessible in five or ten years.
External partners and consultants
A project usually involves structural, building services and site management partners. Data exchange should run securely without slowing the workflow.
How we help
Building blocks that fit together for a design office.
Secure storage and backup
Plans and project data stored encrypted in an Austrian data centre, with backups we actually test.
