IT Support for Manufacturers

Yes. We support the servers, networks, and workstations your production depends on, and we coordinate with your machine and equipment vendors so the line between “IT” and “the machine” stops being your headache. We won’t reprogram a CNC controller, but we’ll make sure everything around it stays connected and protected.

Almost always. We manage and back up the systems your operation runs on, keep them patched where the vendor allows, and isolate anything too old to update safely so it can’t become a security hole. Older line-of-business software is normal in manufacturing, and we plan around it instead of pushing you to rip it out.

Production-down issues are our top priority. We respond remotely right away and get someone on-site same-day when the problem needs hands on it. We’re local to the Vancouver and Portland area, so “on-site” means a short drive, not a flight.

Yes, and it’s one of the most common reasons manufacturers call us. We put the required controls in place, document them, and help you answer customer security questionnaires, cyber insurance renewals, and defense-contract requirements like CMMC. You stop guessing at the answers.

Yes, and in most cases you should. Segmenting your office, production, and guest networks keeps a problem in one area from spreading, improves reliability, and is increasingly something insurers and customers expect. We design and manage that separation for you.

No. We start by documenting what you have and fixing what’s most at risk, then build a plan to modernize on a schedule and a budget you approve. Most manufacturers have equipment at very different ages, and a realistic roadmap beats a forklift upgrade every time.
