Digital Workplace
Elevate Your Business Performance
Construction projects involve multiple teams, suppliers and stakeholders, often working in silos. Poor communication, lost documents and scheduling conflicts cause delays, inflate costs and lead to disputes. Without a single source of truth, project managers struggle to keep everyone aligned, slowing decision-making and leading to expensive rework.
SCC’s Digital Workplace solutions simplify collaboration for construction companies. Our project management and document control solutions keep all project data centralised, reducing errors and improving efficiency. We integrate systems for real-time updates, secure cloud storage and clear communication to ensure everyone stays informed. Our construction customers benefit from:
Collaboration Platforms: Enable real-time communication and document sharing, with instant access to the latest project updates.
Cloud-Based Document Management: Standardise data, track changes and ensure full project visibility.
Seamless Integration: Bring all your systems together in one place, reducing errors and miscommunication.
For successful project execution, construction companies rely heavily on blueprints, site plans and architectural drawings. SCC’s managed print solutions ensure access to reliable, high volume and large format printing capabilities both on-site and in offices. Many construction sites are often temporary and remote, with limited network capabilities or onsite print capabilities, our solutions deliver print mobility, allowing workers to print from mobile devices regardless of their site location. SCC help construction companies to streamline workflows, improve efficiency and enhance project management. Implementing a managed print solution, can reduce printing costs by up to 30% through optimised infrastructure, integrated workflows and efficient machines.
Construction firms, communication and collaboration solutions and hybrid work strategies are hinged on having the right secure devices to provide high quality audio, video and mobile communications from everywhere. Ensuring a seamless transition across devices, whether at home, in the office, or on a building site, SCC provides the right devices for your staff while responsibly disposing of or recycling existing devices. This sustainable approach helps you achieve your carbon reduction and recycling goals.
SCC's IT Asset Management services offer construction companies enhanced visibility and control over their technology infrastructure. This is crucial in an industry where diverse and often mobile technology is used on various project sites. By providing detailed insights into hardware and software assets, construction firms optimise their IT spending, ensuring they have the necessary tools without unnecessary costs. We have developed strong partnerships with all core IT vendors, allowing us to deliver optimised pricing to our construction customers. Our end-to-end asset management solution reduces cost and increases security, by provisioning, storing and configuring all purchased IT devices from one centralised location. Additionally, when assets reach end of life, SCC support organisations in releasing residual value from devices by either remarketing them or recycling them securely at our Recycling Centre, SCC Recyclea.
We offer a broad spectrum of services to address the specific needs of our construction customers including:
Productivity and Collaboration: Leverage industry-leading solutions like Microsoft 365, Teams and Cisco Collaboration tools.
Cloud Adoption and AI Integration: Embrace the potential of cloud applications, AI and chatbots to streamline operations and enhance cross-team productivity.
Device Management and Security: Ensure device uptime and keep employee and business data secure with our comprehensive management solutions.

Partner with SCC and unlock the full potential of your workforce. Invest in a secure, streamlined digital workplace that drives productivity, enabling you to stay in control of your projects to cut delays, improve margins and make life easier for everyone on site and in the office. SCC empowers construction companies to thrive in the digital age, providing the confidence and security needed to accelerate growth and achieve long-term success.
Skanska’s offices all faced the same challenge of reducing costs for paper, consumables and energy when it came to printing. Due to a lack of consistency in their printers, copiers and fax machines, the IT department lacked the ability to monitor and support devices, resulting in downtime of assets and internal delays.
Although there were more than ten service contracts across its estate, some machines were not covered, which caused further cost implications. Most of the printers did not address the requirements of the location. This was due to either the incorrect specification of the machine, or incorrect functionality.
SCC carried out a printer audit, including costs and put forward suggestions for improvement to streamline Skanska's printing requirements. SCC replaced Skanska’s entire printer estate and installed new machines specifically to tailored to address the requirements of each location and department. The project took six months to complete and due to the strong working relationships developed as part of the audit, SCC implemented a seamless installation across the entire estate.
At the end of the implementation, Skanska had the right equipment for each individual location. Extra features, including colour printing capability, were only included on printers where there was a specific business need to do this and duplex printing was set as default to minimise paper waste.
By matching the company’s exact requirements to the printer estate, SCC was able to reduce the number of printers at Skanska by over 450 devices and considerably reduce power, consumables and maintenance costs.
Through SCC’s introduction of default duplex printing, the company has reduced its paper requirements by over 750,000 sheets. Skanska has also been able to reduce expenditure on toner cartridges by implementing a default setting to black and white print.
The solution implemented by SCC has given Skanska complete control over their print estate, allowing them to easily see what printers are attached to the network, which streamlines maintenance requirements and reduces costs.
Through an automated toner notification system, SCC has reduced downtime by ensuring consumables are ordered and dispatched without the need for the user intervention.
