Architecture, Engineering & Construction

From large-scale blueprints to daily project correspondence, architecture, engineering, and construction firms manage more documents, drawings, and deadlines than almost any other industry.

Metro Sales provides the technology, from wide-format printing to secure document management, that keeps your projects moving on schedule and within budget. We work with firms of every size across the design and build process, from early planning through final walkthrough.

Overview

Every drawing, revision and approval on record

We know that staying on budget and having a clear record of every approval and revision matters as much as the finished project itself. Metro Sales helps your team track costs, manage version control on critical drawings, and keep documentation organized and accessible for every stakeholder involved.

What clients say

Told straight, by the people who hired us

Metro Sales attitude and professionalism has never faltered. I never felt that I was bothering them, asking too many questions and/or too much of them. When conflicts arose, I believe the mutual respect we have for each other, allowed us to resolve conflicts or problems with a reasonable and rational outcome. The partnership we have with Metro Sales, is the best I have ever experienced and look forward to many more years of creating and making things better.

Project Manager Construction

Working with our Account Manager has been fantastic. When it comes to certain technology in our office, we are less than eager to make changes. They have always been patient and understanding of that. We move slowly on these changes and we appreciate them understanding our needs and our timelines.

Office Manager Structural Engineering

When I have had to call for service in the past it's so nice to know that a technician will be out quickly. We've never had excessive down time. The techs come out quick and get things fixed and us back up and running. They are always professional and knowledgeable.

FAQ

Questions AEC firms ask us before the first call

What architects, engineers and contractors ask us most about wide-format printing, scanning, drawing revisions and security. Anything else, a real person will answer today.

Ask us directly

Managed print services pair wide-format printers with proactive supply management and maintenance, so blueprints, site plans, and architectural renderings print quickly and accurately without downtime. This keeps project teams from relying on outside vendors for last-minute reprints before a bid deadline.

Leasing a wide-format printer spreads out equipment costs, whereas purchasing requires the payment upfront. MSI offers both options and our team can discuss with you what is best based on your unique situation. All devices are backed up with our award winning service and support team to ensure your investment runs well for years to come.

Document scanning services convert physical blueprints and CAD drawings into searchable digital files, freeing up office and job-site storage while making archives instantly retrievable. Metro Sales' scanning solutions are built to handle CAD drawings and blueprints for easy distribution and long-term digital archival.

Our document workflow automation, powered by DocuWare, gives architects, engineers, and contractors access to the latest approved drawing set, reducing the risk of a crew building from an outdated plan. Automated version control and approval routing cuts down on miscommunication between design and field teams.

Managed IT services include cybersecurity protocols, network monitoring, and secure printing features like user authentication, protecting sensitive bid documents and client information from breaches. 24/7 support ensures a security issue gets resolved quickly rather than sitting overnight.
