1. Customer Industry:
Mechanical Engineering – Industrial Pump Manufacturer
2. Customer Business and ICT Challenges:
This multi-site manufacturer operated with siloed IT infrastructure across production, engineering, and admin divisions. Their legacy networks suffered from high latency and no failover design, and backups were inconsistent, putting valuable IP and production data at risk. They also lacked cybersecurity protocols for IoT and engineering endpoints, threatening business continuity in the event of attack or system failure.
3. The Journey We Walked with the Customer:
We initiated a holistic technology assessment across networking, cloud infrastructure, and security layers. After presenting our findings, including unsecured endpoints, outdated switches, and no DR facility, we co-designed a digital modernization roadmap aligned with the customer’s Industry 4.0 ambitions.
4. Solution Implemented:
- GOLE Cloud Infrastructure: Migrated core ERP and engineering systems to the cloud with high availability.
- Networking Revamp: Standardized to Aruba CX switches with VLAN segmentation and dual uplinks, improving performance and fault tolerance.
- Security Overhaul: Rolled out 24/7 SOC-backed cybersecurity stack: firewalls, EDR, and SIEM-lite telemetry.
- Cloud DRaaS + BaaS: Real-time replication and encrypted backups with quarterly DR failover testing.
5. How This Benefited the Customer:
- Downtime reduced by 90%
- End-to-end network visibility and control
- Incident response times dropped to under 10 minutes
- Achieved alignment with ISO 27001 policies
- Positioned to adopt smart factory technologies and expand IoT automation with confidence
This full-spectrum modernization has elevated the manufacturer’s ICT from a bottleneck to a business enabler. With resilient cloud infrastructure, intelligent security, and a future-ready network, the customer has not only stabilized operations but laid a strong foundation for smart manufacturing and long-term digital competitiveness.
