Secure project document exchange for construction and engineering teams.
Construction project file transfer
Construction projects depend on reliable document sharing.
Drawings, specifications, contracts, BIM models, schedules and project documentation must be exchanged between contractors, subcontractors, architects, engineers, suppliers and clients throughout the entire project lifecycle.
ftpGrid provides secure construction project file transfer designed for modern construction workflows. Share large project files securely without relying on email attachments, consumer file sharing services or self-managed file servers.
Whether you need to distribute updated drawings, exchange project documentation, collaborate with subcontractors or deliver large BIM models, ftpGrid helps construction teams transfer files securely and efficiently.

Everything you need to know
Why construction projects require secure file transfer
Modern construction projects generate enormous amounts of documentation. Drawings, BIM models, specifications, contracts, inspection reports and schedules are exchanged continuously throughout planning, construction and project delivery.
Construction teams often include multiple companies working together, making secure and reliable file exchange essential for keeping projects on track.
Common construction file sharing challenges
Project stakeholders frequently need access to the latest revisions and documentation. Email attachments quickly become difficult to manage when drawings are updated regularly or when multiple organizations need access to the same information.
- Construction drawings and blueprints
- BIM models and technical design files
- Project schedules and planning documents
- Specifications and requirements
- Inspection reports and quality documentation
- Contracts and procurement documents
Construction file transfer vs email attachments
| Feature | Email Attachments | Construction File Transfer Platform |
|---|---|---|
| Large BIM models | Often impossible to send | Designed for large files |
| Drawing revisions | Difficult to track | Centralized delivery |
| Multi-company collaboration | Fragmented communication | Structured file exchange |
| Project documentation | Scattered across inboxes | Professional workflow |
| Large document packages | Hard to manage | Simple transfer process |
