IT Services, Network Infrastructure and Managed Support for Construction Companies

Construction IT is two jobs at once: keeping the main office, estimators and accounting running every day, and standing up connectivity at sites that didn't exist last month. BTI provides managed and co-managed IT support for construction companies, and works as the low-voltage and technology subcontractor that builds cabling, networks and Wi-Fi on tenant improvement and remodel projects.

"Before contacting BTI we didn't have constant tech support, we were experiencing server issues, internet domain issues, email issues, and a lot of IT-related questions that needed to be addressed." BTI installed servers and computers, moved Crown Fence's IT infrastructure and set up remote logins. Patrick Fiedler, General Manager, Crown Fence

IT That Supports Field and Mobile Operations

Supers and PMs work from trucks, trailers and owners' offices. BTI manages their laptops, tablets and phones so project apps, plans and email work anywhere, with MFA and device management that let you wipe a lost tablet in minutes. Field communications are covered on our mobile operations page.

Network Infrastructure for Tenant Improvements and Remodels

As the GC's low-voltage subcontractor, BTI delivers:

  • Structured cabling: copper and fiber, racks, pathways, labeling and cable testing with documented results in the closeout package
  • Switching, firewalls and SD-WAN sized to the tenant's needs
  • Wi-Fi: BTI designs and validates Wi-Fi with Ekahau, the professional-grade Wi-Fi design and testing tool many smaller providers don't invest in
  • Coordination: submittals, GC schedule, inspections and punch list
  • Closeout: as-builts, test results, labeling schedules and credentials handed to the tenant, with optional managed IT for the tenant afterward

Design fees are often waived when BTI handles procurement and installation. Example: network and security infrastructure for a Southern California school district project, delivered as the technology subcontractor to the GC.

Job Site and Trailer Connectivity

Temporary internet for trailers and field offices, a secure network for laptops, phones and cameras, and a configuration that can be packed up and reused on the next project. BTI connects each site back to the main office over SD-WAN so files and project systems behave the same everywhere.

Main Office, Yards and Project Offices on One Network

BTI is a Cisco Select and SMB Black Belt partner with 500+ Meraki deployments. Cloud-managed firewalls, switches and Wi-Fi let one team see every location from one dashboard. → Cisco Meraki Wi-Fi

Onboarding Subs, Seasonal Staff and Joint Ventures

Accounts and devices ready on day one, limited access for subs and JV partners, and same-day offboarding when a job ends.

Help Desk and 24/7 Monitoring

A real help desk for office and field staff, plus 24/7 monitoring through BTI's SOC 2 audited NOC/SOC partner. Choose fully managed IT or co-managed IT that backs up your in-house IT person. → Managed IT · Co-managed IT · Help desk

Security Built In

Every managed IT plan includes the basics contractors are asked for: MFA, endpoint protection, patching and tested backups. Payment fraud defenses, ransomware readiness and cyber insurance questionnaires are covered on our construction cybersecurity page.

Governed AI Workspaces

Estimators and PMs are already pasting specs and bid documents into free AI tools. BTI gives them a company-controlled AI workspace connected to the Microsoft 365 files and project data you already own, with access controls, logging and data rules, so bid and owner data stays private. A 2025 survey of more than 1,000 trades contractors found that 59% of those using AI use features built into software they already pay for (ServiceTitan); BTI reviews those embedded features too, so you don't pay twice for the same capability. Instead of renting AI one SaaS product at a time, with a license fee and renewal increases on each tool and upgrades on the vendor's schedule, BTI builds governed AI agents and workflows that you own, connected to the systems you already run, with no royalties or license fees to SaaS providers for what we build. As your Guided Automation Partner, BTI includes AI advisory in every managed IT plan, and governed AI clients often pay no separate AI license fee. Our NOC uses automation to catch failing drives, offline sites and suspicious logins before your people notice. → AI for construction · AI for business leaders

Pricing Approach

Itemized monthly pricing per user and per site, so IT costs can be allocated to overhead or jobs. 100% financing covers hardware, licensing and labor for office and site projects. → Managed IT pricing
