Manufacturing

Helping manufacturers build for the future with the latest Cloud technologies.

Modernise manufacturing with cloud technologies

We help forward-thinking manufacturers improve their processes and unlock efficiencies with Microsoft cloud technologies. Traditionally, manufacturing has maintained their infrastructure on-premises. Now, innovative manufacturing methods mean factories are becoming more productive, secure, and reliable with a reduced environmental impact.

Enterprise systems are key to the day-to-day operations at many manufacturing facilities as they manage essential processes, reporting and data. But some processes may fall outside of the capabilities of these core systems, creating inefficiencies. Bridge the gaps in your enterprise system and digitise paper-based processes by creating custom apps in PowerApps. Free up valuable time by automating simple, repetitive admin tasks with Power Automate.

Modern manufacturing equipment often collects production and operational data which can go overlooked and unused. Pull this data into visual, interactive dashboards in Power BI to get insights and export reports directly from the factory floor.

Attract the best office-based talent with flexible and remote working options. Enable on-premises and remote working staff to work closely together with Microsoft 365 and Teams, for instant, centralised communication.

As manufacturing becomes more digitized and connected, the potential risk of cyberattacks grows too. In recent years ransomware has emerged as a top method of data breaches in manufacturing according to the Verizon 2021 Data Breach report. Keep systems, data and machinery secure around the clock with Microsoft’s extensive security toolset and our fully managed security service.

McLaren Case Study 1
“With Transparity coming on board, a well-defined Power Apps Governance structure was put in place along with customisation of our existing Centre of Excellence kit. This facilitated a foundation for restricting the creation of environments, performing an audit of connections, and implementing Data Loss Prevention policies. This approach allowed Collaboration Services to proactively reach out to app makers, support them, reduce sprawl and create a thriving community.”

In the new year Microsoft is implementing changes to their Enterprise Agreements (EA) which are set to impact how businesses manage their Microsoft software and services, particularly for those using cloud-based solutions. The changes are in line with Microsoft’s broader business strategy to streamline licensing and emphasise subscription-based models.
