IT infrastructure for data-heavy, technically demanding consulting environments
CAD files, simulation models, project data sets, and collaborative design environments are the core of what these businesses produce. The computational demand is substantial, the project timelines are unforgiving, and the data is irreplaceable. When IT infrastructure does not perform, engineers cannot work. When data is lost or compromised, projects are at risk and client relationships are damaged.
CAD, BIM, and simulation workloads require consistent high-performance compute that standard cloud environments and shared infrastructure cannot reliably deliver
Large project data sets require fast, reliable storage and the ability to access and collaborate on files from multiple locations without performance degradation
Multi-site and remote access for engineers working across project offices, client sites, and home environments needs to work seamlessly and securely
Project data sovereignty matters. Engineering IP, client specifications, and project documentation cannot sit on infrastructure subject to foreign government access legislation
The consequences of downtime during a live project phase are significant: delayed deliverables, contract penalties, and reputational damage that affects future work
Growing firms are taking on larger, more complex projects and their IT infrastructure needs to scale with that ambition without requiring a capital investment cycle every two years
Public cloud handles general business workloads well. It does not handle GPU-intensive engineering applications consistently. Shared infrastructure means variable performance at exactly the moments when engineers need certainty. And most managed IT providers do not have the infrastructure depth to support the kind of compute environment that a serious engineering consulting firm actually needs. The market for WA engineering consulting is competitive. The firms that win are the ones that can produce faster, collaborate better, and keep delivering when things get hard.
CMTG’s Desktop as a Service platform, powered by Citrix and backed by NVIDIA L4 and L40 GPU infrastructure, delivers full workstation-class performance from any device, anywhere. Engineers get consistent, high-performance compute without the capital cost of individual high-spec workstations, and the environment scales as the team grows.
IBM enterprise storage with world-record IOP performance handles large file environments and simultaneous multi-user access without degradation. Project data stays in WA on infrastructure CMTG owns and is directly accountable for.
CMTG’s team includes 36 technical specialists who understand engineering IT environments. Proactive monitoring, managed connectivity, and a dedicated Technical Account Manager who knows the business mean that IT runs reliably in the background rather than demanding attention.
Quarterly-tested DR with sub-1-hour recovery time objectives. In the event of a system failure mid-project, recovery is fast and the data is intact. Immutable backups mean that ransomware does not end a project.
A Perth-based engineering consultancy working across civil and resources projects moved its design and project environment onto CMTG’s DaaS platform to address performance inconsistency that was affecting productivity across a team of engineers working from multiple locations. The GPU-backed virtual desktop environment delivered workstation-class performance from any device, the project data moved onto CMTG’s sovereign storage platform, and the NOC monitoring replaced an arrangement where IT issues were only discovered when an engineer raised a ticket. The outcome was a faster, more reliable working environment and the ability to take on larger, more data-intensive projects with confidence.
Your team successfully transitioned us from a fragmented network to a unified, scalable, and secure infrastructure
I just wanted to pass on my thanks for your efforts in getting the server upgrade implemented. Your techs have done a great job completing the upgrade works on-site with absolute minimal disruption. When other staff do not even know it happened, that is a great result.
I cannot thank you guys enough for getting me back up and running so fast. This is a crazy time of year for us and I truly appreciate the prompt and professional help.
CMTG was fundamental to the success of the BlackBox Control data centre migration project. Their focus and attention to detail played a key role in delivering a smooth and secure transition.
