San Antonio manufacturers build trucks, aircraft parts, food products and metal goods, often as one link in a much larger supply chain. ITServices.Tech covers IT services for San Antonio manufacturers in a single agreement: help desk, security, backups and planning for the plant and the office.

Trucks, aircraft and tortillas

Toyota builds the Tundra and Sequoia on the South Side, with supplier companies operating on the same campus. Port San Antonio, the former Kelly Air Force Base, hosts aircraft maintenance, aerospace and technology firms. Food and beverage producers are a large employer across Bexar County, and metal fabricators, plastics molders and equipment makers line Interstate 35 out to Schertz, New Braunfels and Seguin.

Life as an automotive supplier

Automotive customers schedule parts in tight windows and expect suppliers to protect production data and recover quickly from an attack. Many ask for a cybersecurity assessment based on the TISAX or NIST frameworks. We map your systems, close obvious gaps such as shared passwords and unpatched servers, and document the controls you have so the questionnaire reflects reality.

Aerospace and defense parts

Shops that repair aircraft or machine parts for military programs often receive drawings that count as controlled unclassified information. Those contracts carry DFARS cybersecurity clauses, and CMMC preparation becomes part of the job. We keep that data in a controlled area of the network, separate from the general office, and help you track what came from which customer.

Food plants and traceability

Food and beverage producers rely on lot tracking, recipe systems and labeling software that must be accurate on every shift. A server failure that stops label printing can halt a line. We keep those systems monitored and backed up, keep spare label printers configured, and plan updates for planned downtime rather than mid-run.

When the power goes out

The 2021 winter storm left much of San Antonio without power for days, and flash floods in Bexar County close roads with little warning. Battery backup that shuts servers down cleanly, a generator plan for critical systems and copies of production data stored away from the plant make restarting much easier.

IT services for San Antonio 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).

Under Texas law, a business must notify affected people of a breach of their sensitive personal information within 60 days, and the Texas Attorney General within 30 days when 250 or more Texans are affected.
