IT for engineering firms
Managed IT and cybersecurity for civil, structural, MEP, and environmental engineering firms that run demanding CAD and modeling tools and share large project files with clients and field teams.
The challenge
Engineering firms depend on heavy software, big datasets, and teams that move between the office and the field.
Civil 3D, Revit, MicroStation, and analysis tools need well-specified workstations and fast storage.
Engineers need secure access to project data from job sites, client offices, and home.
Public-sector and enterprise clients increasingly require documented security controls.
How WEBIT helps
We match hardware to your workloads, keep project data available everywhere it is needed, and document the security controls clients ask for.
Frameworks and requirements
We build the technical controls and evidence. Your leadership keeps ownership of the program.
Engineering tools we support
Engineering firms depend on demanding design software, large datasets, and project archives that must stay accurate for years. We keep all of it fast and protected.
AutoCAD Civil 3D, MicroStation, Revit, SolidWorks, and analysis tools on workstations sized for the models and calculations you run.
File servers, Autodesk Vault, Bentley ProjectWise, and cloud storage organized for large project sets, with archives you can still open years later.
Esri ArcGIS, survey data, drone imagery, and field tablets, with a clean path from the field into the project file.
Security and client requirements
Public agencies, prime contractors, and insurers increasingly ask engineering firms to prove their security. We build the controls and the documentation.
Firms that handle Controlled Unclassified Information on defense work must meet NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC. We assess the gaps, build the plan, and implement the technical controls.
Multifactor sign-in, endpoint detection and response, tested backups, and training, documented so you can answer client and insurer questionnaires with evidence.
Versioned, tested backups of project files and archives, so a deleted folder or ransomware attack never costs you a project record.
Switching IT providers
We support engineering firms in Naperville and across the Chicago suburbs, onsite and remote. The transition is planned around deliverable dates, and the disruptive work happens after hours.
We document every user, workstation, server, license, and vendor, and collect what your current provider has, without interrupting active projects.
We patch, secure, and back up everything, fix the issues slowing your team down, and turn on 24/7 monitoring.
Regular reviews with your named Client Success Manager, a hardware refresh plan, and an IT budget you can see a year in advance.
Questions, answered
Not seeing your question? Talk to an owner. You can also explore our managed IT and cybersecurity services.
Yes. For firms working on defense or government projects, we assess your current state and build a roadmap to the required controls.
Through managed devices, MFA, and secure remote access, so data stays protected wherever work happens.
Usually, yes. We assess hardware, storage, and network bottlenecks and recommend changes based on your workloads.
Yes. WEBIT serves AEC firms across Chicagoland with IT built around design and construction workflows: CAD and BIM support (AutoCAD, Revit, Civil 3D, SolidWorks, Autodesk Construction Cloud, SketchUp), construction platform support (Procore, Sage 300, HCSS HeavyJob and HeavyBid), storage built for large files, jobsite connectivity and mobile device management, and protection for design files and project data.
