Specs matched to your software
CPU, GPU, RAM and storage chosen for Revit, Civil 3D, structural analysis or rendering workloads — not a generic business PC spec sheet.
Workstations
Workstations Built for AEC Work
A workstation that's great for email is nowhere near enough for Revit, Civil 3D or a rendering pass. Hawk specs, deploys and supports hardware sized for what your team actually runs, and keeps it running that way.
What We / Handle
Hardware decisions made for your software, not the other way around.
The four things that come up most when we spec AEC workstations.
Desktop and mobile options
Desktop workstations for the office, mobile workstations for architects and PMs who need real performance on the road.
Fast local & network storage
Storage configured so opening and saving large models is fast, whether the file lives locally or on a shared server.
Lifecycle & refresh planning
A replacement schedule based on actual performance data, not guesswork — so aging hardware doesn’t quietly become a bottleneck.
Why It Matters
Why generic office hardware falls short for AEC teams.
Revit, BIM coordination and rendering are some of the most demanding everyday workloads a workstation can run. The wrong spec doesn't just feel slow, it costs billable hours.
- Single-core CPU speed and a certified GPU driver often matter more than core count or RAM for Revit and Civil 3D performance.
- Field laptops and jobsite devices need to survive real conditions, not just look good in an office.
- Every workstation is patched, monitored and secured the same way, whether it’s in the office or a jobsite trailer.

FAQ
Common questions about AEC workstations.
What specs do we need for Revit or Civil 3D?
It depends on model size and team workflow, but generally a fast multi-core CPU with strong single-core performance, 32–64 GB of RAM, a certified professional GPU, and fast NVMe SSD storage. See our full breakdown in Best Workstation Specs for Revit in 2026.
Do you handle laptops for staff who work in the field?
Yes — we spec mobile workstations for architects, PMs and superintendents who need real performance without being tied to a desk.
How often should we replace workstations?
Most AEC firms see 3–5 years before performance genuinely limits productivity — we track actual usage and performance data so replacement is a planned decision, not a surprise failure.
Can you support a mix of desktops and laptops across multiple offices?
Yes — every device is set up, patched and monitored the same way regardless of location or form factor.
Do you help with leasing vs. buying hardware?
Yes — we’ll walk through the tradeoffs for your firm’s size and cash flow and help you choose the approach that fits.
