Case Study: WBCM achieves high-performance VDI and seamless remote access with Citrix

WBCM Meets the Challenge of VDI with NVIDIA Grid, Citrix and Goliath Technologies

Whitney Bailey Cox & Magnani (WBCM) is a 200‑person AEC firm serving the Mid‑Atlantic with complex, distributed projects. As projects and remote work grew, a four‑person IT team struggled with latency, file‑sharing bottlenecks, poor user experience at distant sites, and slow provisioning—prompting the need for a virtual desktop strategy.

WBCM completed a hardware refresh and deployed Citrix XenDesktop/XenServer with NVIDIA vGPU, Framehawk and Goliath performance monitoring to deliver virtual desktops and proactive support. The result: 70% virtualization with two offices fully on VDI, reliable remote access (60+ employees worked remotely during storms with no UX decline), faster provisioning, centralized file access and near real‑time troubleshooting—moving the firm toward a goal of 100% virtualization.
