Reliable Managed IT Services for General Contractors, Subcontractors & Builders
Construction companies depend on technology to keep projects on schedule, connect the office to every jobsite, and protect bids, drawings, and payments. Velonex provides secure, reliable managed IT services tailored to the needs of general contractors, specialty trades, and builders.
More Than a Help Desk. More Than Software.
Velonex delivers construction IT support as a long-term partnership that combines secure infrastructure, jobsite connectivity, and ongoing support for your office staff, project managers, and field crews.
Construction Cybersecurity & Compliance
MFA, endpoint protection, and email security that help stop wire fraud and ransomware, and help you meet owner, GC, and cyber insurance requirements.
Jobsite Connectivity & Trailer Setup
Reliable internet, Wi-Fi, and secure connections for jobsite trailers and temporary offices, set up quickly and moved when the project wraps.
24/7 Monitoring & Help Desk
Ongoing network monitoring and a responsive help desk so superintendents and office staff get answers fast, including early starts and weekend pours.
AI Implementation & Automation
Practical AI adoption for estimating, project management, and the back office: evaluating tools, protecting project data, and building a roadmap that fits your systems.
Field Device & Mobile Management
Secure, centrally managed laptops, tablets, and phones for field crews, with the ability to lock or wipe a device that’s lost or stolen on site.
Backup & Disaster Recovery
Reliable backup and recovery for drawings, contracts, estimates, and accounting data, so a ransomware attack or failed server doesn’t stall your projects.
Communication Solutions
Reliable phone, messaging, and unified communications that keep the office, project managers, superintendents, and subcontractors connected across every jobsite.
Construction IT Doesn’t Have to Be Complicated
Many construction companies know their technology and security need attention, but aren’t sure:
- How to get reliable, secure internet to every jobsite trailer
- Whether project management, estimating, and accounting software is properly supported
- What happens if a fake payment request or ransomware attack hits mid-project
- Whether field crews’ laptops, tablets, and phones are secured
- Whether they have the internal IT resources to keep up as they win more work
Velonex helps construction companies understand where they stand and builds the managed IT and security foundation needed to protect projects, payments, and schedules.

Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about construction IT support and cybersecurity? Here’s what contractors and construction leaders ask most often.
How do we get reliable internet and Wi-Fi at a temporary jobsite trailer?
It depends on the site. Depending on location and project length, we’ll typically recommend cellular/5G, fixed wireless, satellite, or a temporary wired circuit, often with a second connection as backup. We pair it with business-grade firewalls and Wi-Fi so the trailer is secure, and we can relocate the setup when the project closes out.
Do you support construction software like Procore, Autodesk, Sage, or Viewpoint?
The IT & Security Assessment reviews your project management, estimating, design, and accounting platforms so we can confirm support, work with your software vendors, and identify any gaps before onboarding.
How do we protect against wire fraud and fake payment change requests?
Construction projects move large payments between owners, GCs, subs, and suppliers, which makes them a favorite target for business email compromise. Attackers impersonate a vendor and send “updated” banking details. We reduce the risk with MFA, advanced email filtering, and impersonation alerts, and by helping you put a call-back verification process in place for any banking change.
What will our cyber insurance carrier require from us?
Most carriers now expect multi-factor authentication, endpoint detection and response (EDR), secure and tested backups, and security awareness training before they’ll issue or renew a policy, and they may deny a claim if those controls weren’t in place. We help put these safeguards in place and document them so your application answers are accurate.
Why are construction companies being targeted by ransomware?
Construction runs on tight schedules with costly delay penalties, handles large payments, and often relies on many remote devices and lean IT teams. That combination puts pressure on firms to pay quickly when systems go down. Prevention, monitoring, and tested backups are the best way to keep an attack from stopping your projects.
How much does managed IT cost for a construction company?
Pricing depends on the number of users, devices, offices, and active jobsites you need supported. The IT & Security Assessment gives us the specifics we need to put together an accurate quote rather than a generic estimate.
We already have an internal IT person. Can you still help?
Absolutely. Many construction companies pair Velonex’s managed IT and security support with their internal team for after-hours coverage, jobsite rollouts, compliance, and specialized expertise.
