Managed IT that keeps job sites running and projects profitable
Gold Coast based IT support for Queensland construction and trades businesses. Ransomware protection, backup that works, and job site connectivity with no call centres and no offshore.
The problems
Construction IT has different problems
Ransomware stops job sites dead
- One infected email halts projects across multiple sites
- Subcontractors demand proof of cybersecurity before they work with you
- Your data is hostage including project files, quotes, and client details
Job sites need reliable connectivity
- Plans and specs must be accessible on site, not just in the office
- VPNs drop, Wi-Fi fails, mobile reception is patchy
- Remote teams need secure access without friction
Backup is an afterthought until it isn't
- Project files stored in three different places with no sync
- "The cloud backup" nobody has tested in six months
- One hardware failure and years of quotes and plans disappear
The fix

Security-first, not add-on
- Endpoint detection and response on every device
