Case Study: Ground Construction Limited achieves control, security and GDPR compliance with Egnyte

How Ground Construction Gained Control, Security and Compliance

Ground Construction Limited (GCL) is a major UK contractor and demolition specialist with 20+ active sites and hundreds of large project files. IT faced uncontrolled user access, complex departmental drives, oversized CAD and plan files that were often stored locally on laptops or USBs, and a pressing need to demonstrate GDPR compliance while enabling fast onsite access and collaboration.

GCL selected Egnyte for its granular sub‑folder permissions, versioning, cloud sync with an on‑premise replica, and secure link‑sharing. Deployment across office and site teams delivered a single, centralised file environment with audit trails, improved collaboration and productivity, simpler external partner access, demonstrated regulatory compliance, and reduced on‑prem infrastructure and governance costs.
