Case Study: PCL Construction achieves IT cost reductions despite doubling data with Egnyte

PCL Construction Reduces IT Costs Despite Doubling Data

PCL Construction, a 100%-employee‑owned group of independent construction companies operating globally with roughly $8.5B in annual volume, was struggling with a “digital free‑for‑all”: disparate cloud point‑products, duplicate large CAD files, and poor remote performance across geographically distributed projects. Their existing on‑premises architecture could not scale to support next‑generation PM4 applications, creating security, continuity and productivity problems.

PCL implemented Egnyte’s hybrid‑cloud content services to centralize files, synchronize on‑site repositories, and integrate with Salesforce, Microsoft Office, Bluebeam and in‑house apps. The deployment migrated 100+ TB (with 40–50 TB archived but accessible), eliminated unauthorized file sharing, sped field access with offline mobile sync, reduced storage provisioning labor and capital costs, and enabled them to double data without doubling IT spend.
