IT support for manufacturing in Sussex
Keep production running while office IT, older machines and customer security requirements all keep moving, with a managed IT team based in Burgess Hill.
Common IT issues for this sector
The problems below come up again and again for organisations like yours.
Older machines and controllers
Equipment that cannot be patched is a risk. Separating it from the office network and planning its replacement reduces exposure.
Downtime that costs by the hour
When a server or network fails, the line may stop. Monitoring, tested backups and a quick response limit the damage.
Customer security questionnaires
Larger customers increasingly ask suppliers about their security. Cyber Essentials and clear evidence help you answer with confidence.
Email fraud against suppliers and finance
Fake invoices and changed bank details target finance teams. Email protection and verification routines help.

Questions we are asked
Can older machines be made safer?
Often yes. Where they cannot be patched, isolating them on a separate network segment and limiting access reduces the risk while you plan replacement.
Why do customers ask suppliers about security?
Attackers can reach larger organisations through their suppliers, so customers want assurance. Cyber Essentials is a common baseline.
Do you support manufacturers across Sussex?
Yes. We support organisations across Sussex, including Haywards Heath, Horsham, Crawley and Brighton.
