“Interscale’s expertise in both IT and the AEC space allowed us to seamlessly integrate our IT infrastructure with our architectural processes, supporting our innovative pursuits.” –
Ewert Leaf representative
Ewert Leaf faced significant hurdles in managing their growing IT needs while maintaining focus on their core architectural expertise. Their BIM processes were inefficient, leading to project delays and decreased productivity.
As Ewert Leaf grew and took on bigger projects, they encountered increasingly complex technological challenges.
The architects were spending excessive time troubleshooting tech problems, losing almost 20+ hours weekly and diverting their focus from designing buildings.
They were juggling multiple vendors for various IT needs, creating confusion and inefficiency.
The firm’s commitment to innovative design necessitated advanced software solutions, but managing these tools became a burden.
Each design tool required its own updates and licenses, further complicating their IT landscape.
Most critically, Ewert Leaf’s BIM processes were not optimised, leading to inefficiencies in their core architectural work.
They needed a solution that could address both their IT infrastructure and their specialised architectural software needs.
Interscale provided a suite of services tailored to Ewert Leaf’s unique needs as an architecture firm, including IT Managed Services, BIM optimisation, and dedicated helpdesk support.
Interscale implemented a holistic IT management solution that included overseeing Ewert Leaf's day-to-day IT needs and managing their Autodesk software. This centralised approach streamlined their technology stack and simplified license management.
To address Ewert Leaf's core challenge with BIM processes, Interscale conducted a specialised BIM/CAD Discovery Session. This in-depth analysis allowed us to identify inefficiencies in their current workflows and develop a tailored roadmap for improvement. "The BIM/CAD Discovery Session opened our eyes to new possibilities in our design software." Following the session, we created a plan that included targeted training, lunch learning sessions, and the development of custom Revit content. This approach was designed to optimise Ewert Leaf's use of BIM tools and improve the efficiency of their architectural processes.
Interscale provided ongoing, specialised tech support to ensure Ewert Leaf's team could quickly resolve any IT issues. "Interscale's helpdesk is quick to respond and really understands our needs. It's like having our own IT department." This service was tailored to the unique needs of an architecture firm, ensuring minimal disruption to their design work.
Ewert Leaf experienced significant improvements in their operations after implementing Interscale’s solutions:
Ewert Leaf keeps using Interscale’s services to make sure they have all the tech support they need for their building design work. As their company grows, they plan to use more of our services.
“Getting help from Interscale is easy, and they always have the answers we need.”
Ewert Leaf also likes how we tell them about new technologies and better ways to work. They’ll keep relying on us as they try new building design software and IT solutions.
Now, Ewert Leaf has a flexible and forward-thinking approach to managing their IT. They can support their building design work well with the tools and knowledge we provide.
