Joining up the office and the site for Newton Abbot builders
Half your team is on a job or in the van, the other half runs things from the office — and they all need to be reachable. We build IT and phones that bridge the two, wherever the work is.
A Newton Abbot construction firm runs in two worlds at once: an office managing jobs and quotes, and sites and vehicles spread across South Devon where the work actually happens. The town's A38 and main-line links make it a sensible base for exactly that kind of operation — and keeping office and site on the same page, one number, shared files, reachable on the road, is exactly where most IT setups fall down. We build for that split from the start.
One number, office or site
With a cloud phone system, your team carries one number whether they're at a desk, on a site across South Devon or driving the A38. Customers and suppliers reach the right person without juggling a string of mobiles, and nothing slips through the gaps between the yard and the job.
Files and IT that follow the work
Drawings, quotes and job sheets are no use stuck on an office PC. We set up Microsoft 365 so the latest files are available on site, secured and backed up rather than emailed around in half a dozen versions. Quotes, contracts and client details are worth protecting too, so we close off the common risks with Cyber Essentials and tested backups.
Local to Newton Abbot
Newton Abbot is about 25 minutes from our Exeter base, close enough for us to be there in person when it matters and set up to handle most things securely online.
What we handle
What Newton Abbot construction businesses come to us for
Office and site, joined up
Project managers in the office, crews on site — they have to work as one. We set up phones and Microsoft 365 so calls, files and messages flow between the two without anyone chasing.
Reachable on the road
Half the team is rarely at a desk. A cloud phone system gives everyone one number on their mobile, so customers and suppliers reach the right person whether they're on site or driving.
Files available on site
Drawings, quotes and job sheets are no use stuck on an office PC. We set up Microsoft 365 so the latest files are available on site, secured and backed up — not emailed around in versions.
Connectivity for the office
The office that runs the jobs needs a reliable connection for its phones, cloud apps and email. We size the right connectivity with failover so the hub doesn't go quiet.
Securing the business
Quotes, contracts and client details are worth protecting, and construction isn't immune to attack. Cyber Essentials and tested backups close off the common risks.
