Key IT Challenges Faced by Construction Companies — and How KyndL Solves Them

1. Managing Complex Project Data

Construction projects involve vast amounts of data — blueprints, schedules, financial records, client communications, and more. These need to be organized, updated, and accessible at all times, whether you’re in the office or out in the field.

KyndL’s Solution:

• Cloud-based data storage: We ensure your files and documents are securely stored in the cloud, accessible by all team members, and protected from data loss. Cloud services like Microsoft OneDrive or Google Workspace can be customized to suit your construction workflows, providing secure sharing and access across devices.
• Document management systems: Implementing systems that allow you to track changes, assign permissions, and keep all stakeholders on the same page ensures smooth collaboration.

2. Field Communication and Collaboration

Construction projects require constant communication between teams on-site and those in the office. This communication often involves sharing files, updating schedules, or making last-minute changes — and unreliable networks or poor software integration can lead to frustrating delays.

KyndL’s Solution:

• Remote IT support: We ensure that your teams in the field are equipped with the tools they need to stay connected. Whether using mobile devices to access blueprints, make updates, or communicate with office staff, we make sure all systems are fully integrated and operational.
• Project management tools: We help you choose the right project management tools, like Procore or Buildertrend, that enhance field-to-office communication. We’ll also set up real-time updates, so your team is always working with the latest information.

3. Software Integration Issues

Your company likely uses a variety of software, from CAD programs and scheduling tools to accounting and payroll systems. When these systems aren’t properly integrated, it leads to inefficiency, errors, and wasted time. For example, miscommunication between your estimating software and accounting systems can lead to over- or under-budgeting.

KyndL’s Solution:

• Custom software integration: We ensure that your software works together seamlessly. Whether you’re using AutoCAD, Revit, Sage 300 Construction, or QuickBooks, we’ll integrate these tools so your team can easily move between them without wasting time on redundant data entry or troubleshooting.
• ERP solutions for construction: For larger firms, we implement Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems, such as Viewpoint Vista or Microsoft Dynamics, to bring your financials, HR, procurement, and project management into one unified platform.

4. Security and Data Protection

Construction firms handle sensitive client data, financial records, and proprietary project information, all of which must be protected from cyber threats and data breaches. Construction businesses, especially small to mid-sized firms, are increasingly targeted by cybercriminals due to perceived vulnerabilities.

KyndL’s Solution:

• Cybersecurity: We protect your data with multi-layered cybersecurity measures, including firewalls, anti-malware software, encryption, and regular security audits. We also provide employee training on cybersecurity best practices to minimize human error.
• Backup and disaster recovery: We implement reliable backup systems to ensure that all your critical data is regularly backed up, either to the cloud or an off-site server. In case of a disaster, we’ll quickly restore your data and get your business back online.

5. Network Downtime and Performance Issues

Your entire operation relies on a stable, fast, and secure network — from accessing files and communicating with clients to running software. Any network issues can cause significant disruption, leading to delays, lost productivity, and frustrated teams.

KyndL’s Solution:

• Network optimization: We design and maintain high-performance network infrastructure tailored to the demands of your business. This includes setting up Wi-Fi solutions for mobile teams, ensuring VPN access for secure remote work, and monitoring network health to prevent downtime.
• Managed IT services: Our proactive network monitoring means we catch issues before they affect your business. We manage your IT remotely, conducting regular maintenance, security checks, and software updates so you can focus on building your business, not fixing IT problems.
