IT for Manufacturers
IT that keeps the line running.
From shop-floor PCs and ERPs to OT networks and CAD workstations, we keep manufacturers running with proactive IT, real cybersecurity and a partner who understands the cost of downtime.
Industry challenges
Manufacturers can't afford reactive IT.
Downtime is measured in dollars per minute
When the line stops because IT is slow, the cost compounds fast — and customers don't care why.
Aging plant equipment with networked controls
Legacy PLCs, scanners and industrial PCs need careful network design and segmentation.
ERP and MES uptime
Production scheduling, inventory and quality systems need consistent uptime and informed support.
Cybersecurity attacks targeting manufacturing
Manufacturers are now a top ransomware target. Insurance carriers demand controls you can prove.
Hybrid workforce in the front office
Office, sales and engineering teams need productivity tools that match the modern world.
Compliance pressure from primes and customers
DFARS, CMMC-style requirements and customer security questionnaires keep getting tougher.
