Construction professionals face critical challenges.

A construction project involves years of documentation: plans, studies, contracts, photos, reports, and as-built records. Voltn (formerly NetExplorer) stores and manages them in a sovereign cloud designed to keep pace with the field.

Ever-growing file sizes

‍
Blueprints, BIM models, photos, and site videos: construction files far exceed what email services can handle. USB drives and consumer-grade transfer tools take over, and security goes out the window.

Long-term document retention

‍
Ten-year liability, claims, and incidents: construction project documents must remain accessible for years after completion. An aging local server or a misplaced hard drive is not an archiving plan.

Coordination of multiple stakeholders

‍
Project owners, project managers, contractors, subcontractors, and inspection offices: everyone produces and expects documents. Without a shared space, the right version of the plan is always somewhere else.

Access to documents in the field

‍
Construction sites aren't always managed from the office. Field teams need up-to-date plans, schedules, and instructions on their mobile or tablet, even in areas without network coverage.

Cyberattacks and project continuity

‍
A ransomware attack encrypts the company server, and all work stops. Data protection becomes a prerequisite for meeting deadlines.

The pillars of Voltn

Voltn stores and secures files for construction professionals in a trusted, end-to-end controlled cloud: we develop the software and operate the infrastructure.

Solutions tailored to your needs

Voltn Share secures your file exchanges with all project stakeholders. Voltn Workspace centralizes storage and collaboration for your projects.

External file sharing

Send files with no size or format limits

Send plans, BIM models, photos, and site videos via secure link. Sharing a 4 GB folder is now as easy as sending a quote.

Secure upload link

Your subcontractors and partners can upload their deliverables to a dedicated space without needing to create an account. Every file is scanned for viruses and automatically filed in the correct project folder.

Password or SMS code protection

Add authentication to sensitive shares and set expiration dates. A tender file will automatically become inaccessible once the submission deadline has passed.

Full traceability of exchanges

Every link is unique and timestamped. You know exactly who viewed or downloaded which plan, and you can export the history in the event of a dispute.

Custom portal branded to your company

Give your partners and clients access to a branded space featuring your logo and domain name. Professionalism shows in every interaction.
Discover Voltn Share

The enterprise file platform

Centralized and replicated storage

Keep all your project documents in one place, with every file replicated in real-time across three storage systems in two separate data centers. It’s time to retire that aging local server.

Rights management by project or by trade

Assign precise permissions to each stakeholder with 7 levels of access rights. The electrician can view their plans, but not the structural work contract.

Version history and anti-deletion trash bin

Every plan retains its full history of revisions, and deleted files can be recovered for a duration of your choosing. Revision C never replaces revision B without leaving a trace.

Mobile app

Access plans, schedules, and instructions on-site, even offline. The documents follow the field teams, not the other way around.

Real-time co-editing

Collaboratively draft site reports, schedules, and calculation notes directly in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint formats. Only one version of the document, always up to date.

Concrete use cases in construction

Architect & engineering firm

Plans, technical studies, calculation notes, and graphic documents: the design phase generates heavy files that circulate between the agency, engineering firms, project owners, and contractors. Every plan revision sent by email creates a risk of using an obsolete version on site.
Voltn centralizes project documentation: stakeholders always have access to the latest revision, communications are tracked, and large files are sent via secure links.

Scenario
Distribution of plans and successive revisions to all stakeholders
Solution
Centralized project space with versioning and secure sharing links
Benefit
The correct revision for
the construction site +
full traceability

General contracting and structural work

A general contractor coordinates dozens of subcontractors, hundreds of documents, and teams split between the head office and various job sites. Deliverables arrive via email, local servers become overloaded, and a ransomware attack can bring all operations to a standstill. Voltn organizes it all: a dedicated space for each project, an upload link to collect subcontractor deliverables, replicated storage to keep data safe, and mobile access for site managers.

Scenario
Collecting subcontractor deliverables and managing documentation across multiple sites
Solution
Project-specific workspaces + secure upload links + replicated storage
Benefit
Business continuity +
accessible documents

Trades & finishing work

Electricians, drywallers, plumbers, painters: tradespeople work on multiple sites simultaneously, each with different plans, schedules, and instructions. The right document is often buried in an impossible-to-find email or left on a computer back at the workshop. With Voltn, every project has its own shared folder: up-to-date plans and instructions are accessible on mobile, and photos taken at the end of a job are uploaded directly to the right place.

Scenario
Project-specific shared folders, accessible on mobile
Solution
Secure links and protected sharing
Benefit
Fewer back-and-forth emails +
documented interventions

Public works & infrastructure

Roads, utilities, and civil engineering structures: public works projects involve demanding contracts and span many years. Technical reports, as-built drawings, and final project documentation (DOE): every document creates a long-term liability for the company, sometimes for decades. Voltn secures this long cycle: tender documents are sent via secure links with expiration dates, site documents remain hosted in France, and the complete final documentation is delivered upon project completion in just a few clicks, regardless of its size.

Scenario
Submission of tender documents and delivery of the final project documentation (DOE) to the local authority
Solution
Secure sharing with expiration dates + unlimited file size transfers
Benefit
Deadlines met +
documents retained
over the life of the project

How can you keep construction project documents for the long term?

Voltn stores your documents for as long as necessary, complete with version history and an anti-deletion trash bin. For long-term archiving, the Vault option adds immutable backups on LTO magnetic tapes.

How do I send files that are too large for email?

Use a secure Voltn Share link, with no limits on size or format. Blueprints, BIM models, photos, and videos are encrypted in transit, with full tracking of views and downloads.

Where can you securely store construction project documents?

In a Voltn Workspace dedicated to your project, hosted exclusively in France. Every file is encrypted, scanned for viruses, and replicated in real time across three storage systems in two separate data centers.
