Design teams in 35 countries, working from the same model.
Ramboll, with 16,500 engineers across 35 countries, was running physical storage backed by SnapMirror, with CAD application latency and siloed files that made collaboration between distant offices painful. After deploying 3 petabytes of cloud file storage with Nasuni, cross-office collaboration became real-time and weekly maintenance overhead disappeared entirely.
- LAN-speed access to Revit, BIM 360, AutoCAD, and Civil 3D files across every office and job site
- Global file locking ensures no two offices can unknowingly edit the same file at once, preventing conflicting versions
- 5X faster file synchronization between locations (Leo A Daly)
15X faster Revit load times. No storage overhaul.
45% of AEC firms say slow or inconsistent file access negatively impacts employee productivity to a large or very large extent. Highland Associates were losing billable time waiting for Revit models to open over VPN. Nasuni delivered a 15X performance improvement: models that took minutes now open in seconds, from any office, over any connection.
- Up to 98% cache-hit rate for near-local performance on multi-GB design files
- 15X performance improvement on Revit model load times (Highland Associates)
- VPN-dependent slow access eliminated for remote offices and hybrid workers
82% of AEC firms hit by a cyberattack last year. Average recovery: 4 weeks.
AEC is the most targeted sector for cyberattacks, with 82% of firms affected in the past year. Recovery is slow: on average it takes 4.0 weeks, and 78% of affected firms face extended downtime. Source: Nasuni State of Enterprise File Data 2026.
- Real-time edge detection, with threats contained before spreading
- Restore millions of files in minutes, with billable teams back online without days of downtime
- Immutable snapshots captured as often as every minute, automatically, across every site
Full file access on site. No VPN. No dropped transfers.
Picture a superintendent on a remote job site pulling the latest structural drawings before concrete is poured. The connection drops, the transfer fails, and the crew waits. Active Everywhere is purpose-built for this: a P2P transfer engine that uses every available megabit, resumes automatically after any interruption, and caches files locally so crews keep working even when connectivity disappears entirely.
- Transfers use all available bandwidth over any connection type — cellular, satellite, or limited site broadband
- Automatic resume after any interruption, with no failed transfers and no manual retries
- Local caching at job site appliances means crews work at full speed even when connectivity drops
One platform for every office and every acquisition.

82% of AEC firms have no centrally managed file system, and the average firm runs 4.4 separate vendors for storage, backup, and disaster recovery (Nasuni State of Enterprise File Data 2026). Leo A Daly replaced all of it — fragmented NAS, backup appliances, and FTP servers — with Nasuni across every location, reducing storage footprint by 67% per site and avoiding $700K in backup costs.

Decades of project knowledge,
made searchable by AI.
RFIs, submittals, specifications, permit packages, and as-built drawings hold answers your teams have already paid to find. AI Activate indexes Nasuni volumes and gives AI tools governed, permission-enforced access to the full project archive, without moving data or rebuilding infrastructure.
What your teams can ask
- Search RFI responses across active and archived projects
- Retrieve current-revision specs, submittals, and permit packages
- Match prior project scope and building type to active proposals
- Compare specs against current drawings
- Identify scope conflicts across subcontractors
- Surface recurring issues across project types before they become claims
- Draft RFI responses from spec and prior answers
- Assemble project briefs and permit packages from the full project archive
- Generate proposal sections based on comparable project archives
- Find permit packages and agency correspondence by natural language query
- Surface compliance documentation across active and historical projects
- Reduce regulatory inquiry response time from days to hours
