How AO IT Overhauled a Construction Company’s Network and Transformed Their Operations
|
Industry Construction |
Location Portland, OR |
Challenge Unreliable Network |
Solution Managed Network Services |
The Challenge
When this Portland-area construction and warehouse company came to AO IT Consulting, they were battling a network that simply couldn’t keep up. Across their office and large warehouse floor, employees were constantly dealing with dropped connections, sluggish speeds, and Wi-Fi dead zones that made it nearly impossible to get work done.
The problems weren’t just frustrating — they were costing the business real time and money. Workers couldn’t reliably access job files, client data, or the tools they needed to operate. For a company running projects across a large physical footprint, a weak network wasn’t a minor inconvenience. It was a daily obstacle.
What We Found
When the AO IT team conducted a full network assessment, the root causes became clear:
- Mismatched equipment from multiple vendors that wasn’t designed to work together
- Outdated devices that were years past their useful lifespan
- No centralized network management or monitoring in place
- Wi-Fi coverage that left large sections of the warehouse completely unreachable
The Solution
AO IT designed and implemented a complete network overhaul tailored to the company’s physical space and operational needs:
- Replaced all outdated and mismatched networking equipment with modern, compatible hardware
- Designed a Wi-Fi deployment that eliminated dead zones across the office and warehouse floor
- Enrolled the client in AO IT’s Managed Network Services for ongoing monitoring, maintenance, and support
- Ensured all employees could reliably access business tools and client data from anywhere on-site
The Results
The transformation was immediate and significant. Employees now move freely throughout the office and warehouse with full, reliable connectivity. Client data and business tools are accessible without interruption. The company’s leadership went from dreading IT issues to raving about the speed and reliability of their new setup.
With AO IT’s Managed Network Services in place, the client also has peace of mind knowing their network is being monitored proactively — so small issues get resolved before they ever become big problems.
