#2: Regular onsite maintenance
Working with an outsourced IT partner doesn’t mean there won’t be onsite services. Construction companies may be in different locations as they work on projects so the right IT partner should be able to meet wherever their services are needed.
#3: Cyber security and audit support
Construction firms use multiple softwares and programs to run their business. An outsourced IT partner would help with cybersecurity support by running audits on the systems being used. This will help give the company owner and the IT partner an understanding of just how safe the programs being utilized are and how to move forward with securing them.

A 24/7 monitoring of these systems should catch any potential issues that arise before they become a real threat.
