Critical data loss halted production operations, requiring immediate crisis response and long-term infrastructure modernization to support business growth.

Solution

We stabilized systems after critical data loss and restored production operations. We modernized their ERP platform and implemented a layered defense strategy that stopped dozens of documented cyber attacks—including attempted ransomware and phishing-based breaches—without a single production outage. Over the years, we supported their growth phase as they scaled from 1 to 4 locations with zero downtime, through their 2014 private equity acquisition with continued expansion and integration support, and ultimately to their 2017 purchase by a Fortune-500-owned industrial group, after which they expanded into Mexico.

Results

The company expanded from 1 to 4 locations, grew their team 10x, increased revenue 40x, completed multiple acquisitions including a private equity deal in 2014, and was ultimately purchased by a Fortune-500-owned industrial group for $80M in 2017 before expanding into Mexico.

"They didn't just help us grow; they made us feel like a true partner every step of the way. We couldn't have done it without them."
