Keeping Launceston's production and logistics moving

For a manufacturer or distributor on the A30 at Launceston, an outage stops the line and stalls dispatch. We build resilient IT, monitor it remotely, and the border location keeps a visit close.

Launceston's position on the A30 makes it a natural base for manufacturing and logistics serving both counties, with the agricultural trade of the surrounding area feeding into it. Those operations depend on systems staying up, and on dispatch not stalling. We answer that with resilience built in and remote monitoring that catches issues early, so a dropped connection doesn't bring production or distribution to a halt.

Resilience and remote monitoring

We size the right connectivity, up to a dedicated leased line with 4G failover, so the ERP and stock systems your operation rides on stay connected even when a line drops. Around it we monitor your systems, security and backups remotely, so most problems are headed off before anyone on the floor notices.

Cabling and installs on planned visits

A factory or warehouse floor is a demanding environment for IT, and that work needs someone on site. Launceston's place on the A30 makes a planned visit straightforward for the structured cabling, Wi-Fi and install jobs — designed and certified to hold up where standard kit struggles — while the day-to-day support and monitoring stay remote.

Local to Launceston

Launceston is about 70 minutes from our Exeter base, close enough for us to be there in person when it matters and set up to handle most things securely online.

What we handle

What Launceston manufacturing businesses come to us for

Downtime stops the line

When systems go down, production and dispatch stop with them. We build in resilient connectivity, 4G failover and tested backups so an outage doesn't bring the whole operation to a halt.

Multi-site, joined up

Manufacturers often run office, warehouse and production across sites. We join them onto one phone system and one support model with resilient links, so the sites work as one operation.

Connectivity on the factory floor

A factory floor is a harsh environment for IT — dust, distance, machinery. We design and install cabling and Wi-Fi that gives you solid coverage where standard kit struggles.

Resilient connections

ERP, stock systems and cloud apps all ride on the connection. We size the right connectivity — up to a dedicated leased line — with failover, so the link your business runs on stays up.

Securing the operation

Manufacturers are an attractive target, and a breach can halt production. Cyber Essentials, monitoring and tested backups close off the common attacks and get you back up fast.

Phones across the whole site

Reception, the warehouse, the floor — people need to be reachable across a large site. A cloud phone system extends to every corner, on desk phones, mobiles and DECT handsets.

FAQs

Manufacturing IT support in Launceston — your questions

How do you keep a Launceston plant running if you're not next door?

We build resilience in and monitor it remotely. Properly sized connectivity with failover keeps the line up, proactive monitoring catches issues early, and tested backups mean fast recovery — so a dropped connection doesn't stall production. Most fixes happen remotely; install and cabling work we plan as a visit, and the A30 keeps that close.

Can you still handle cabling and Wi-Fi on the factory floor?

Yes — that work needs someone on site, so we plan it as a visit, helped by Launceston's position on the A30. We design and install structured cabling and Wi-Fi that gives solid coverage in a demanding environment, tested and certified, then keep the ongoing support and monitoring remote.

How do you keep production from stopping when IT fails?

We build resilience in: properly sized connectivity with 4G failover so the line keeps working, proactive monitoring that catches issues early, and tested backups so you recover fast. The aim is that an outage doesn't bring the operation to a halt.

Can you support multiple sites as one operation?

Yes — we join your sites onto one phone system and one support model with resilient links between them, so office, warehouse and production work together. We supported Multipanel UK as they grew into an international, multi-site business.

Can you handle cabling and Wi-Fi on the factory floor?

We can — a factory floor is a harsh environment, and we design and install structured cabling and Wi-Fi to give you solid coverage where standard kit struggles. It's tested and certified so you know it performs.
