IT Designed for the Way Architects Design

Your Revit models are 500 MB. Your rendering queue runs overnight. Your team collaborates on a central model from three different offices. Architecture demands IT infrastructure that generic providers do not understand — GPU workstations, high-speed storage, BIM collaboration servers, and rendering farms. GCS builds all of it.

Revit Opens in Seconds, Not Minutes — Because Your IT Is Built for It

Revit and AutoCAD are the backbone of architectural practice — but they are also among the most hardware-demanding applications in any industry. Slow model loads, worksharing conflicts, and GPU crashes are not Revit problems — they are IT infrastructure problems. We build environments where Revit and AutoCAD perform the way Autodesk designed them to.

Revit-Optimized Workstations

High single-thread CPU performance, 64-128 GB RAM, NVIDIA RTX GPUs with ISV-certified drivers — spec'd for Revit, not for spreadsheets

Worksharing Infrastructure

Central model hosting on high-speed storage with proper network configuration — sync-to-central completes in seconds, not 10 minutes

AutoCAD Performance

DWG file handling, xref management, and plotting optimized — large drawing sets open and print without the freezing and crashing

License Management

Autodesk subscription management, named-user optimization, and Revit add-in management — maximizing value from every license dollar

BIM Collaboration Infrastructure

Your Entire Team Working on One Model — From Multiple Offices

BIM coordination requires infrastructure that supports multiple architects, engineers, and consultants working on the same model simultaneously — often from different locations. We deploy and manage the BIM collaboration infrastructure that makes this seamless: Autodesk Construction Cloud, Revit Server, or BIM 360 configured for your practice.

Autodesk Construction Cloud

ACC Document Management and Model Coordination configured for your project structure — permission management, issue tracking, and clash detection workflows

Multi-Discipline Coordination

Architects, structural engineers, MEP consultants, and contractors all accessing the federated model through controlled permissions and defined workflows

Revit Server / Cloud Worksharing

Central model acceleration for multi-office firms — local caching reduces WAN latency so remote offices work at near-local speed

Navisworks Coordination

Clash detection and model review infrastructure — workstations configured for large federated models with proper RAM and GPU resources

High-Speed Storage & Backup

Terabytes of Design Files — Fast to Open, Impossible to Lose

Architecture firms generate enormous files — Revit models, Rhino meshes, Photoshop renderings, InDesign presentations, and video walkthroughs. Consumer cloud storage cannot handle this volume or deliver the performance your designers need. We build storage that is fast enough for real-time design work and resilient enough to survive any disaster.

10GbE NAS

Network storage delivering 1+ GB/s — large Revit models open in seconds

Cloud Tiering

Active projects on fast local storage, archived projects in Azure cloud

3-2-1 Backup

Three copies, two storage types, one off-site — immutable and encrypted

Version Control

File versioning so deleted or overwritten designs are always recoverable

Project Access Controls

Client data isolated by project with audit logging on every file access

4-Hour Recovery

Full DR capability — every file recoverable within 4 hours from any event

Photorealistic Renders in Minutes — Without Locking Up Your Workstation

High-quality rendering ties up a designer's workstation for hours. V-Ray, Lumion, Enscape, and Twinmotion all demand significant GPU and CPU resources. We deploy dedicated rendering infrastructure — on-premises and cloud — so your team submits render jobs and keeps designing while the render completes in the background.

Dedicated Render Nodes

Multi-GPU machines with 4x NVIDIA RTX A6000 — submit from your workstation, render completes on the dedicated node while you keep working

Cloud Rendering

Azure GPU instances for peak demand — spin up massive GPU power for competition deadlines, pay only for hours used, tear down when complete

GPU Cloud Desktop

Azure Virtual Desktop with dedicated GPU — designers run V-Ray or Lumion remotely from any device including home offices and client sites

Cloud Project Management Tools

Every Project — Organized, Accessible, and Under Control

Architecture projects involve dozens of deliverables, consultant coordination, client reviews, and regulatory submissions. We deploy and integrate the cloud tools that keep every project organized and every team member aligned — from schematic design through construction administration.

Teams & SharePoint

Per-project channels with design documents, meeting notes, and consultant correspondence organized and version-controlled.

  • Project-based channels
  • Document libraries by phase
  • External consultant access

Project Management

Task tracking, resource planning, and deadline management integrated with your design workflow.

  • Monday.com / Asana
  • Microsoft Planner
  • Deltek Vantagepoint

Design Review Tools

Markup, annotation, and client review platforms integrated into your deliverable workflow.

  • Bluebeam Revu

Is your IT designed as well as your buildings?

Slow Revit, undersized storage, and consumer-grade networking cost architecture firms thousands in lost productivity and missed deadlines. Our free assessment evaluates your workstations, BIM infrastructure, storage, and rendering capability — and builds a plan that lets your designers design instead of waiting for their computers.
