Government tenders and head-contractor prequalification now ask about cyber controls. Your drawings are in the cloud and your people work from sites and utes. Our IT support for construction companies makes it all reliable and secure, from Perth. - Site connectivity over 5G and satellite, with secure remote access - Fast, backed-up sharing for large computer-aided design (CAD), building information modelling (BIM) and survey files - Tender and prequalification cyber questions answered with evidence - **40+ Google reviews** - Perth clients since 2000 - Zero offshoring We hold ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification from BSI, [certificate IS 840964](https://www.bsigroup.com/en-AU/products-and-services/assessment-and-certification/validation-and-verification/client-directory-certificate/IS%20840964/). ## Cyber security risks for construction companies ### Clients are asking about cyber before they award work. Government agencies and tier-one head contractors increasingly ask Essential Eight and cyber insurance questions in prequalification. Large progress-claim payments also make construction a prime target for invoice fraud. - #### Progress-claim fraud A spoofed email from a “subcontractor” with new bank details, timed for your payment run. We set up email protection and verification steps that stop it. - #### Lost site time When the site office can’t reach drawings or job-management systems, crews stand around. Reliable connectivity and offline sync keep work moving. - #### Tenders without evidence “Yes, we have multi-factor authentication (MFA)” won’t win a tender that asks for Essential Eight maturity. We keep your evidence current and ready to attach. ## Cyber rules affecting construction firms, 2026–27 ### The rules your next tender will ask about. The dates that affect your IT and data obligations. We track them so you don’t have to. 1. 30 May 2025 Businesses with annual turnover over $3 million must report ransomware payments to the Department of Home Affairs within 72 hours. 2. Ongoing Government and tier-one prequalification increasingly asks for a stated Essential Eight maturity level. 3. 10 Dec 2026 Privacy policies must explain any automated decisions made using personal information, including decisions made with AI tools. 4. 2026–27 The second tranche of Privacy Act reform is in consultation.
