IT Support for Construction Companies UK: Security, Sites & Microsoft 365
What a UK contractor actually needs from an IT partner, counted rather than described: six computing environments instead of one office, cellular-first site connectivity measured against Ofcom’s real coverage figures, Microsoft 365 licensing split between office and site with the annual cost of each shape worked out, identity and Conditional Access for a workforce that changes weekly, the eight golden thread attributes the Building Safety Act now requires and the IT control that delivers each, the statutory payment and adjudication clocks that email has to carry, CIS deduction arithmetic, invoice fraud controls, and a fifteen-year retention floor that most backup policies quietly miss. Ends with a weighted hundred-point scorecard and a pass mark of 70.
