IT support for London construction firms and contractors
Dozens of sites, huge CAD and BIM files and tight margins. Foxcomm keeps head offices and live sites connected and secure across London, the UK and the EU, with a helpdesk that responds around the clock.
The IT challenges only construction firms face
Distributed teams, remote sites with poor connectivity and large project files put pressure on generic IT support.
Multi-site and remote working
Reliable access to the same systems whether your team is in the office or on a site with a mobile connection.
Large BIM and CAD files
Storage, transfer speed and version control so teams can work on the same project files without conflicts.
Tender and contract confidentiality
Live bids and subcontractor pricing are commercially sensitive and need protecting from phishing and accidental sharing.
Mobile workforce devices
Laptops, tablets and phones for site managers and surveyors need management, encryption and patching.
Legacy systems and integration
Platforms such as COINS, Procore, Viewpoint, Sage and AutoCAD need to work together without duplicate entry.
Ransomware risk
Construction is a frequent ransomware target. Tested backups and an incident plan are essential.
Managed IT services built for construction
Every service reflects the realities of site work: remote locations, large files and fast-moving teams.
Multi-site network and connectivity
SD-WAN, mobile failover, encrypted site-to-site links and network segmentation across every location.
BIM and large-file infrastructure
High-capacity storage, fast transfer and cloud collaboration for BIM, CAD and project files.
Mobile device management
Encryption, remote wipe, app management and patching for every device your workforce carries.

What a London construction client says
A client of Foxcomm since 2018.
“We were running eight sites off a mix of consumer broadband and personal hotspots. BIM files were being emailed around, version control was non-existent, and we'd had two ransomware attempts in twelve months. Foxcomm fixed the whole lot inside sixty days and we've had zero issues since.”IT Manager, GBG Building Services

Questions from construction firms
What site managers and directors ask us most.
Can you provide IT support directly on construction sites?
Yes. We support site teams remotely through the helpdesk and have engineers who can attend sites across London and the South East when hardware or cabling needs attention.
How do you handle connectivity on sites with poor broadband?
We plan the connection around each site, using business-grade lines where available and mobile failover where they are not, with encrypted links back to your network.
Can you support BIM software and CAD tools?
Yes. We build the storage, network and access controls these tools depend on, so large files move quickly and versions stay under control.
We use COINS, Procore or Viewpoint. Can you integrate them?
We work with the systems you already run, including COINS, Procore, Viewpoint, Sage and AutoCAD, and design integrations that avoid data silos and duplicate entry.
What happens if we have an IT emergency during a live pour or deadline?
Call the 24/7 helpdesk. Our average ticket response is 15 minutes, and urgent faults are escalated straight away.
We are growing and taking on new sites. Can you scale with us?
Yes. We standardise equipment and set-up so each new site is brought online the same way, and one helpdesk supports them all.
