Manufacturing IT
Is your plant IT a utility — or a fire drill?
8 rows: uptime, ERP, drawings, backups, cyber, support, compliance signal, future capability. Most manufacturers are shocked by at least two red bands.

The only fixed-fee manufacturing MSP that runs ERP-aware IT, kills paper drawing chaos with a shop-floor drawing + QR system, and brings AI to ops — built by a team that actually helps CAMA manufacturers, not generic helpdesks.
Sound familiar?
Most of our clients aren’t chasing gadgets. They’re trying to ship product without IT becoming the bottleneck.
The network “just works”… until it doesn’t
Printers drop mid-pick. VPN flops for remote accountants. Nobody’s sure if last night’s backup finished.
ERP is critical — and fragile
Epicor, SAP, Dynamics, Sage, and the rest need stable infrastructure, sane permissions, and recovery plans that match how the plant actually runs.
Drawings everywhere, answers nowhere
Paper prints on the floor go stale. The “current” file lives in three folders and one person’s laptop. Revisions become tribal knowledge.
Still guessing where IT hurts?

How the promise shows up on the floor
How the promise shows up on the floor. Managed IT is the spine; drawings, AI, and compliance are how we keep plants shipping.
Managed IT for the whole site
Proactive monitoring, patching, and unlimited support so your team isn’t the after-hours helpdesk — fixed monthly fee.
ERP-aware infrastructure
We stabilize and support the plant systems your VAR implements. Networks, servers, and permissions shaped around inventory, MRP, and accounting.
Cloud & secure remote access
Hosted desktops and remote workflows for controllers, estimators, and multi-site teams — without opening the plant to the world.
Backup & disaster recovery
Verified backups and a recovery path you can explain to a COO in one sentence.
AI embedded in ops — not a toy SKU
Fewer fire drills and faster answers for the floor: document search, ops assistants, and workflow automation on systems you already trust.
Drawings always at the machine
Our drawing + QR system: scan the job or traveler, open the approved revision — stop hunting binders and network folders.
Paper drawings & network scavenger hunts — fixed
One proof point on the floor: drawings always at the machine, never lost on the network.
Wrong print on the floor
Operators work from a binder that was current last quarter. Scrap, rework, and “who approved this?” follow.
Files scattered everywhere
Drawings live on shares, email, USB sticks, and personal drives. Nobody agrees which PDF is the source of truth.
QR → current revision
Tag the job, machine, or traveler. One scan opens the approved drawing — controlled, findable, ready for the floor.
CMMC, ISO, and ITAR expertise
Defense and regulated manufacturers need IT partners who already speak the control language — not a crash course after the audit letter arrives. Consultants assess; we own remediation and ongoing posture as fixed-fee managed IT.
CMMC
Practical guidance: scoping, controls that stick on the shop floor, and evidence your team can maintain.
ISO
Align systems and processes so security and quality aren’t two different stories for two auditors.
ITAR
Protect export-controlled data and workflows — access, storage, remote work, vendors — without freezing the plant.

We help local manufacturers through CAMA
We’re the IT team that helps CAMA — the local manufacturing association — so shops in the community get technology support that understands manufacturing.
Same ops-first mindset we bring to member plants and private manufacturers alike.
Who this is for (and who it isn’t)
For you if…
- Manufacturer or distributor roughly $1M–$100M+
- Shop floor + ERP (Epicor, SAP, Dynamics, Sage, or similar)
- Tired of paper drawings / network file scavenger hunts
- Facing or preparing for CMMC, ISO, or ITAR scrutiny
- Want one accountable IT partner on a fixed fee — not ticket roulette
Not for you if…
- Pure office / SaaS with no plant floor
- Looking for cheapest break-fix or hourly firefighting
- Want a gadget demo, not outcomes for uptime, audits, and drawings
- Need a full ERP implementation partner (we stabilize and support; we don’t replace your VAR)

“The shift in vendors went seamlessly — and the network finally feels managed instead of reactive.”
“They dig until there’s a real answer — and they explain it in language the plant and the front office both understand.”
“Cloud access means quotes and files travel with the team — without babysitting an on-site server.”
