Engineering Systems Inc unifies 500TB of project data and powers AI with Egnyte

Engineering Systems Inc (ESi), a forensic engineering firm operating at the intersection of AEC, legal, and media, faced significant data governance and access challenges. They needed to unify over 500TB of project data across 20,000+ active projects into a single source of truth, but were hampered by sync delays from Nasuni and a restrictive Active Directory permissioning ceiling. Their fragmented system created liability risks for their legally consequential data.

Egnyte provided a unified, high-performance platform that eliminated sync issues and broke through the permissioning ceiling, enabling real-time, project-level access control at scale. The solution delivered a single governed environment, finally retiring parallel systems like SharePoint. Results included instantaneous data access for teams, seamless cross-platform parity, and the establishment of a compliant data foundation. This foundation directly enabled ESi's production AI program, built on 30 years of expert knowledge.
