Cloud & Infrastructure
Stable, secure foundations your team can run.
The problem
If this sounds like you
- “Things moved to the cloud one at a time, and nobody planned it.”
- “Our plants and offices lose connectivity too often.”
- “We do not know whether we could recover from a ransomware attack.”
- “IT costs keep rising and we cannot explain why.”
What we do
Cloud readiness and migration, infrastructure modernisation, and release automation.
We start with what you run today and what it must support tomorrow. Then we set an order of work that your team and your budget can absorb.
Not everything belongs in the cloud. Some plant systems must stay close to the machines. We say which, and why.
The test of our work is simple: your own team can run it after we leave.
What it covers
The foundations, and what each one improves.
Placement and platforms
Planned cloud placement
Governed decisions about what moves, what stays and why, in place of ad-hoc migration.
Infrastructure readiness for a core business-system upgrade
The platform is checked before the programme starts, so there is no platform surprise half-way through.
Enterprise data platform
One governed place for business data. It is the prerequisite nobody budgets before starting AI work. See AI & Business Automation.
DevOps and release automation
Changes reach production through a repeatable, checked route, not by hand late at night.
Network, identity and devices
Site-to-site networking
Predictable connectivity across offices and plants, and a lever on network cost.
Identity
Single sign-on, multi-factor authentication and control of privileged access. Often the highest-return security control.
Standardised device lifecycle
Devices bought, set up, patched and retired the same way. Easier to patch, cheaper to support, easier to audit.
Operations, recovery and cost
Consolidated monitoring
One view of your systems, in place of several tools nobody watches.
Ransomware-resilient recovery
Protected backup copies and a recovery time that has been tested, not assumed.
IT service management maturity
Requests, changes and assets recorded properly, so IT performance can be argued with data.
Cloud cost and licence rationalisation
Finding what you pay for and do not use. The savings can fund the modernisation.
Before we start
What must be true first
If these are not in place, this may not be the right time. We would rather say so on the first call.
- A list of what you run, or the will to build one first. You cannot plan a move without it.
- A business reason. A contract ending, a system upgrade, repeated failures or cost. “Everyone is moving” is not one.
- People who will run it afterwards. If there is no team to hand over to, we need to talk about that first.
- Agreed windows for change. In a plant, production decides when IT work can happen.
