Manufacturing doesn’t stop for IT problems. IT HQ provides managed IT services designed for manufacturers — supporting ERP systems, securing OT/IT networks, maintaining CMMC compliance, and keeping production lines running.
Schedule a ConsultationProduction equipment is increasingly connected to IT networks, creating security risks and complexity that most IT providers don’t understand.
ERP platforms are mission-critical and depend on reliable servers, databases, networking, and backups that must perform 24/7.
Defense contractors and supply chain partners face strict compliance requirements that demand documented security controls and continuous monitoring.
Manufacturers are among the most targeted industries for ransomware because production downtime creates immediate financial pressure to pay.
Our network infrastructure team isolates OT and IT networks with VLANs, firewalls, and access controls — protecting production equipment while maintaining connectivity.
As part of our managed IT services, we handle server management, database backups, performance monitoring, and high availability for the infrastructure your ERP depends on.
Our cybersecurity program includes EDR/MDR, email security, MFA, and security awareness training — layered protection designed for the manufacturing threat landscape.
Gap assessments, control implementation, documentation, and ongoing monitoring to achieve and maintain CMMC certification.
Enterprise Wi-Fi coverage for offices, warehouses, and production floors — designed for the unique RF challenges of manufacturing environments.
Automated backups with rapid failover to minimize production downtime during ransomware attacks, hardware failures, or natural disasters. Our cloud solutions support hybrid backup and off-site replication strategies.
We know the difference between OT and IT, we understand production uptime requirements, and we’ve built networks in facilities from 10K to 500K sq ft.
CMMC, NIST 800-171, ITAR — we implement the controls, documentation, and monitoring required for defense supply chain compliance.
Production can’t wait. Our 15-minute critical SLA and proactive monitoring ensure IT issues don’t become production shutdowns.
Manufacturing companies — especially those in the defense supply chain — face strict compliance requirements that demand documented security controls and continuous monitoring.
The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification is required for Department of Defense contractors. IT HQ implements the technical controls and documentation needed for CMMC Level 1 and Level 2 compliance.
Protecting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) requires adherence to NIST 800-171 controls. We implement access controls, encryption, audit logging, and incident response procedures aligned with NIST requirements.
International Traffic in Arms Regulations govern the export of defense articles and data. IT HQ ensures your IT infrastructure meets ITAR data handling and access control requirements.
Manufacturers face OT/IT convergence risks, ERP system complexity, CMMC and NIST compliance requirements, legacy equipment integration, network reliability across large facilities, and increasing ransomware targeting of production environments.
Yes. We support the infrastructure that ERP systems run on — servers, databases, networking, backups, and user access. We coordinate with your ERP vendor for application-level support.
Yes. We provide CMMC gap assessments, implement required security controls, deploy compliant infrastructure, and provide ongoing monitoring and documentation for audit readiness.
Yes. We design and manage segmented networks that separate OT (operational technology) from IT systems — protecting production equipment while maintaining connectivity for monitoring and data collection.
“IT HQ transformed our factory floor connectivity and secured our DoD contract data. Their team understood our compliance requirements from day one and built an infrastructure that passed our CMMC assessment without findings.”
