Who it’s for
Best fit: Energy operators, EPC/engineering teams, project management, land/admin, HSE, and IT leaders who need predictable uptime, consistent workflows, and defensible security across multiple sites.
Colorado coverage
Local ABT teams support deployments and service across the Front Range and statewide—ideal for multi-site operations that can’t afford “wait-and-see” support.
Energy workflows ABT supports (office + field + multi-site)
Energy projects generate high-stakes documentation—often on tight timelines and across distributed teams. ABT helps you reduce rework and risk by standardizing how documents are captured, secured, routed, printed, and archived.
| Common energy use case | What usually breaks | ABT approach |
|---|---|---|
| Permitting, land, and regulatory documentation leases, ROW, exhibits, filings, correspondence |
Version confusion, slow retrieval, uncontrolled sharing, scattered storage | Scan-to-workflow, metadata tagging, controlled access, and searchable archives with clear retention rules |
| Project execution + closeout packages as-builts, O&M manuals, submittals, warranties |
Manual routing, missing approvals, inconsistent naming, “where’s the latest?” | Automated routing and approvals, standardized naming, and audit-ready history |
| Procurement, AP, and vendor documentation POs, invoices, packing slips, COIs |
Paper backlog, slow processing, duplicate work, weak controls | Central capture, indexing, exception handling, and security controls aligned to your policies |
| Field-to-office intake daily reports, safety forms, photos, checklists |
Inconsistent uploads, email chaos, slow sharing between teams | Scan-to-cloud and structured intake workflows that route documents where they belong |
| Multi-site operations regional offices, yards, construction trailers |
Print sprawl, no visibility, downtime surprises, uneven security | Managed print + proactive monitoring, consistent device configs, centralized reporting |
Fastest path to clarity: map your workflow + risk in one assessment
If you’re juggling multiple sites, vendors, and tight deadlines, a structured assessment gives you a clean plan: right-size devices, lock down workflows, and reduce downtime.
Print + Scan + Document Control (built for compliance and speed)
Your print environment is part of your information security perimeter. ABT helps you reduce exposure with secure print release, identity-based access, and scan workflows that move documents into the right systems—consistently.
- Secure print release (badge/PIN) for sensitive documents
- User and group-based permissions tied to directory services
- Scan profiles (scan-to-email, scan-to-folder, scan-to-cloud, scan-to-DMS)
- Automated file naming + indexing to reduce rework and misfiles
- Fleet reporting for cost visibility and right-sizing
- Land/admin files, legal exhibits, and regulated documentation
- Bid sets, contracts, and vendor packets
- HSE documentation and incident records
- Operations packages and maintenance documentation
- Multi-site teams needing consistent workflows
Workflow Automation (Document routing, Approvals, and Retrieval)
If your team spends time chasing approvals or hunting for the “real” version, workflow automation reduces cycle time and helps you keep a defensible record.
- Square 9 Softworks document workflow automation for capture, routing, and archiving
- Cloud document solutions to simplify access, sharing, and control

Wide-format printing for plans, exhibits, site documentation, and signage
Wide-format isn’t just an AEC thing. Energy teams use large-format output for site plans, easement exhibits, GIS maps, safety signage, as-builts, and stakeholder-ready visuals. ABT helps you right-size devices by width, volume, and media—then supports the workflow.
- Site plans, one-lines, and construction drawings
- Permitting exhibits, ROW/easement maps, GIS overlays
- Safety and compliance signage (yard, site, and facility)
- Stakeholder boards, posters, and meeting visuals

FAQs: Energy, Oil & Gas, and Solar office technology
What should an energy company standardize first: print, IT, or security?
Start with whatever is causing the most downtime or risk. For many teams, that’s a mix of “print sprawl” (no control, no visibility), inconsistent scan workflows, and baseline cloud security gaps. An assessment helps prioritize what to fix first and what can wait.
How do you secure printing for contracts, land documents, and regulated files?
The practical baseline is secure release (badge/PIN), identity-based permissions, and locked-down scan destinations. Pair that with logging and reporting so you can answer “who printed what, where” without guesswork.
Do we really need wide-format printing in energy and solar?
If you produce site plans, exhibits, GIS maps, signage, or plan sets on a recurring basis, wide-format saves time and reduces vendor delays. The right device depends on width, volume, media type, and whether you need scanning.
Can ABT support multi-site operations across Colorado?
Yes. ABT supports deployments and service across Colorado, which is especially useful for teams with regional offices, yards, and job sites that need consistent standards and predictable response.
How does Managed IT help reduce downtime for project teams?
Proactive monitoring catches issues early, a help desk handles user-impacting problems quickly, and security layers reduce incident risk. The goal is fewer surprises and more predictable operations—especially for distributed teams.
What cloud security controls are most important for field + hybrid teams?
Identity controls (MFA/conditional access), endpoint protection, and reliable backup/recovery planning are the most common starting points. From there, most teams improve email security, patch governance, and vulnerability management.
How does access control help energy facilities and yards?
It reduces key sprawl, improves accountability, and makes it easier to manage contractors and vendors without losing control of access. It’s also a practical way to standardize policies across multiple sites.
Is VoIP reliable enough for dispatch and operations?
When designed correctly (network readiness, QoS, redundancy), cloud voice can be highly reliable and easier to manage than legacy systems. It also supports mobile users and improves flexibility when sites change.
What’s the fastest way to get pricing for our environment?
Use ABT’s risk-free assessment so pricing reflects your real volume, workflows, and service expectations. That prevents under-sizing devices or buying features you won’t use.
