# **Covington, LA**IT Support for Construction Companies

Schedule A Call

Ener Systems provides IT support, cybersecurity and compliance help for construction companies and contractors in Covington and across the Northshore. Our office is at 19295 N. 3rd Street in Covington, and we have served Northshore businesses since 1997.

We look after the office and the field: the estimating and accounting systems at your desk, and the laptops, tablets and phones your crews take to the jobsite. The goal is simple: your team bids, builds and bills without waiting on IT.

## **Common Challenges**  
What Covington Contractors Need from IT

A construction company runs two workplaces at once: the office, where estimating, accounting and payroll happen, and the jobsite, where crews need plans, schedules and email on a tablet or phone. IT has to serve both.

- **Jobsite connectivity.** Trailers and temporary sites need internet, Wi-Fi and secure access to office files, set up fast and taken down cleanly when the job ends.
- **Plans, bids and change orders.** Plan sets and bid documents move by email and file share between owners, architects, subcontractors and suppliers. That traffic is a target for invoice and payment-change fraud.
- **Field devices.** Tablets, laptops and phones go to the field, get dropped, get lost and get shared. Each one needs to be managed, kept up to date and able to be wiped remotely.
- **Federal work.** A contractor or subcontractor that handles Federal Contract Information or Controlled Unclassified Information on a Department of Defense contract falls under the CMMC program (32 CFR Part 170).
- **Hurricane season.** The Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 to November 30 (NOAA National Hurricane Center). Project files, estimates and payroll need a backup that lives outside the building and has been tested.

## **FAQs**Frequently Asked Questions About IT Support for Covington Construction Companies

### Do you provide on-site IT support for construction companies in Covington?

Yes. Our office is at 19295 N. 3rd Street in Covington. Our helpdesk handles day-to-day requests remotely, and we come on site to your office or jobsite when the work needs hands on the equipment.

### Can you set up internet and secure remote access for jobsite trailers?

Yes. We set up internet, Wi-Fi and a secure connection back to your office files for a trailer or temporary site, and we remove it when the job closes, so old site equipment does not stay connected to your network.

### Does my construction company need CMMC compliance?

It depends on your contracts. CMMC applies to Department of Defense contractors and subcontractors that handle Federal Contract Information or Controlled Unclassified Information, and the level depends on the information named in the contract. If you bid federal work, we review those requirements with you and build a readiness plan.

### How do you protect bid documents and plan sets from email fraud?

We combine email filtering, multi-factor authentication on every account and staff training. We also help you set a rule that any change to payment instructions is confirmed by phone, at a number you already have, before money moves.

### Can you work with our in-house IT person or office manager?

Yes. Our co-managed IT service works alongside an in-house IT person, or an office manager who handles IT, and takes on the monitoring, security and projects they do not have time for.

### What does managed IT cost for a contractor?

Managed IT is priced per device and per user per month, with the current figures on our pricing page. There is a minimum of 10 devices and 10 users, and a 60-day money-back guarantee.

I never have to think or worry about IT anymore. Ener Systems has it all under control. My experience so far with Ener Systems has been nothing but amazing; they have consistently gone above and beyond our expectations. René, the technician that works with us from Ener Systems is one of the best engineers that I've ever worked with. He is forward thinking and plans out what we're going to need in the months and years to come instead of thinking only quick fix and short term. He's taken care of everything and it really has made my life a heck of a lot easier. The capabilities they bring to the table are everything we were looking for. They are dedicated, very professional and always available. There hasn't been one time that I have called Ener Systems where I didn't get a prompt response. I've called him late in the evening and early in the morning outside of normal business hours and they're always available and willing to help in whatever I need.

WOW! That is all I can say about René and the team at Ener Systems. It's so nice to know that my entire network is handled so I can focus on my business. I've worked with a number of other computer consultants in the past and no one can touch their level of service or expertise. Ener Systems does things differently. Instead of simply resolving the issue at hand with a temporary fix, they give me options that will enhance functionality. Ener Systems is always looking out for my best interest. I have the peace of mind knowing I have someone to call who will get us back up and running ASAP if something goes down. You almost can't put a price on it. I trust Ener Systems and have a personal relationship with the owner. That's important to me because it gives me confidence that I can completely trust her.

The single greatest benefit to our company since having Ener Systems become our sole IT firm is less stress and being able to focus on our day-to-day business. Having a working relationship with Rene Miller is also a great benefit.

Ener Systems is Very Sensitive to the Fact that We Don't Have the Big Bucks to Spend on IT; They Bend Over Backwards to Make Something Work without a Huge Outlay of Cash. René, my contact at Ener Systems, always knows what's going on with my network and does a lot of the maintenance and support...

Ener Systems is Very Sensitive to the Fact that We Don't Have the Big Bucks to Spend on IT; They Bend Over Backwards to Make Something Work without a Huge Outlay of Cash. René, my contact at Ener Systems, always knows what's going on with my network and does a lot of the maintenance and support in the background so we aren't interrupted. Sometimes I just cannot believe how on top of things they are! I remember calling or sending René an e-mail on a Saturday night and he responded to me immediately. I don't even remember what the issue was but he was on it - I mean he was right there! If I decide that I need to reset my server, he's on the phone with me telling me my server is down! It's all done remotely and that's very convenient for us. If there's something that goes wrong, I call and explain what the problem is and he has it fixed either by phone remotely or sends a technician in to take care of it and in a very timely fashion. I certainly have no qualms about recommending them.
