IT Support for Architects in Birmingham and the West Midlands

Fast storage, powerful workstations and secure collaboration for practices working with large CAD and BIM files.

Architecture practices work with some of the largest files in any office. CAD drawings, BIM models and renders need fast storage, a quick network and workstations that can keep up, or designers spend their day waiting. LeapIT provides managed IT support for architects across Birmingham and the West Midlands, built around those demands.

We plan and support storage that handles large models, back it up securely, and set up remote collaboration so staff working from home and partners outside the practice can access the files they need without slowing everyone else down.

Design software licences are a significant cost and easy to lose track of. We help manage licences and renewals, specify and look after workstations suited to the software you run, and protect project data with cyber security controls and tested backups.
