The challenge

What manufacturers in Schaumburg are up against

Downtime stops the line

When ERP, MES, or a shop floor PC goes down, orders slip and people stand around.

Office IT meets the plant floor

Older production machines, Windows versions, and vendor-managed equipment share a network with email and the internet.

Contract and customer requirements

Defense work brings CMMC and NIST SP 800-171, and large customers now send security questionnaires.

What is included

Manufacturing IT support from WEBIT

  • Support for ERP, MES, and shop floor workstations, with vendor coordination
  • Network segmentation that keeps production equipment away from email and the internet
  • Zero Trust EDR, allowlisting, and DNS filtering, including on older systems where possible
  • Backups of ERP, engineering files, and CNC programs, with restores tested
  • CMMC and NIST SP 800-171 readiness support for defense suppliers
  • Hardware lifecycle planning so replacements happen on schedule, not after a failure

Pricing is public. Managed IT is priced per computer user plus a per-device fee for endpoint management and Security Essentials, with month-to-month agreements and a 90-day money-back guarantee. Get a ballpark with the managed IT calculator.

Compliance

Manufacturing compliance for Schaumburg manufacturers

Manufacturers in the defense supply chain handling Federal Contract Information or Controlled Unclassified Information must meet CMMC requirements, which are based on NIST SP 800-171. Even without defense work, customers and cyber insurers increasingly ask for MFA, EDR, backups, and segmentation. WEBIT helps you close the gaps and document them.

Illinois adds its own rules. The Illinois Personal Information Protection Act requires notice to affected residents after a breach of personal information, and the Biometric Information Privacy Act regulates fingerprint and face scans, including employee time clocks.
