Orlando manufacturers build missiles and sensors, simulators, lasers, turbines and chips, often for defense and energy customers with strict requirements. ITServices.Tech looks after IT for Orlando manufacturers through one managed plan: user support, security, backups and long-range planning.
High-tech manufacturing in Central Florida
Lockheed Martin’s missiles and fire control business has a large Orlando operation, Siemens Energy builds and services gas turbines here, and photonics and laser companies grew up around the optics college at UCF. In Osceola County, the NeoCity campus hosts a semiconductor fab, and machine shops, electronics assemblers and simulation hardware makers fill industrial parks from Sanford to Kissimmee.
Defense supply chain requirements
Suppliers to missile, simulation and aerospace programs receive drawings and specifications that are often controlled unclassified information. Their purchase orders carry DFARS clauses requiring NIST SP 800-171 controls, an SPRS score and, increasingly, CMMC readiness. We help you understand what applies, then build and document the controls.
Clean rooms, labs and test equipment
Photonics, semiconductor and electronics plants run test stations and lab instruments controlled by PCs that vendors may not let you update. Putting those systems on a protected network segment, controlling vendor remote access and backing up test data keep production safe without breaking validated setups.
Lightning and storm protection
Central Florida sees more lightning than almost anywhere in the country, and Hurricane Ian in 2022 flooded parts of the region. Surge protection on network and production equipment, battery backup, a second internet link and copies of engineering data stored off site keep a strike or storm from becoming a long outage.
Hiring engineers and technicians
Fast-growing plants hire engineers, technicians and operators throughout the year. Standard onboarding, accounts that match each role and quick removal of access when people leave keep the network clean and make customer audits easier.
IT services for Orlando manufacturers
- Support for the shop-floor network and machine PCs
- Server, backups and user access for your ERP
- Office and shop-floor networks kept separate and secure
- CMMC preparation for defense suppliers
Everything runs under one managed IT agreement, with the help desk, monitoring, patching, Microsoft 365, security and backups handled by the same team.
Software we support
We support the systems you already run, such as Epicor, JobBOSS, SAP Business One and Microsoft Dynamics, along with SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Mastercam and label software like BarTender, without making you replace them. PLC and controller programming stays with your machine vendor or integrator.
Security and compliance
We help defense suppliers prepare for CMMC Level 1 and Level 2 (NIST SP 800-171) with a gap review, policies and security controls. The formal assessment is done by an outside assessor (C3PAO).
