IT Services for Manufacturing & Engineering Companies
In manufacturing, downtime isn't an inconvenience — it's a direct hit to your bottom line. Every hour your production systems are down costs real money.
The Inland Empire is home to thousands of manufacturing and engineering operations — from precision machining shops and food processing facilities to large-scale distribution centers and defense contractors. These businesses share a common requirement: IT that keeps operations running, data secure, and compliance requirements met.
eTop Technology provides managed IT services specifically designed for manufacturing environments. We understand that your priorities are different from a law firm or a marketing agency — uptime, reliability, and operational continuity come first.
The Manufacturing IT Challenge
Modern manufacturing depends on technology at every level:
- Production systems — ERP, MES, quality management, and inventory systems that drive daily operations
- Operational technology — PLCs, SCADA systems, and IoT devices on the factory floor
- Business systems — Email, file sharing, accounting, and collaboration tools for office staff
- Supply chain connectivity — EDI, vendor portals, and customer-facing platforms
Securing and managing this diverse technology stack requires expertise that most general IT providers simply don’t have.
Our Approach to Manufacturing IT
Uptime-First Design
We architect your IT infrastructure for maximum reliability — redundant systems, failover capabilities, and proactive monitoring that catches issues before they impact production.
OT/IT Network Segmentation
We implement proper network segmentation between your operational technology and business IT systems. This protects your production environment from IT-side threats while maintaining the connectivity your operations require.
Multi-Site Connectivity
Whether you operate two facilities or twenty, we ensure consistent, secure connectivity across all locations. Same security standards, same management, same visibility — everywhere.
Compliance Support
CMMC, ISO 27001, industry-specific requirements — we help you build an IT environment that meets the compliance standards your contracts and partnerships demand.
Cybersecurity for Manufacturing
Manufacturing is increasingly targeted by ransomware and state-sponsored attacks. We implement defense-in-depth security — SOC monitoring, EDR, email security, and employee training — tailored to the realities of manufacturing environments.
