Due Diligence
Six Questions for Every Finalist
Take these into every meeting — including ours. The answers separate plant-ready providers from pitch decks.
01
Which ERPs Do You Administer?
And for how many plants, today? “We can learn it” is the wrong answer when your BOMs, scheduling, and shipping live inside it.
02
Response Time — In the Contract?
Ask for the contractual commitment and the actual average. If they differ wildly, believe the average.
03
Is OT Security Included?
Or an add-on price list? Your PLCs and HMIs are on the network whether anyone secures them or not — segmentation either exists or it doesn’t.
04
Manufacturer References?
Two or three, callable, at your headcount. Manufacturing fluency shows up in how those references describe line-down incidents.
05
Line Down at Full Order Book?
Ask them to walk the scenario: detection, containment, recovery time, customer communication. Rehearsed answers are the good ones.
06
What Does Leaving Look Like?
Who owns documentation and credentials? Any hesitation here predicts the whole relationship.
Frequently Asked Questions
Choosing Manufacturing IT — Questions, Answered
What plant managers and owners ask when comparing this list.
What should a manufacturer pay for IT support in Los Angeles?
Typically $125–$250 per user per month fully managed, with OT security and compliance scope driving the range. Full market breakdown in our managed IT pricing guide.
Should we choose a manufacturing specialist or a general MSP?
A plant of any size benefits from manufacturing fluency: ERP administration, OT/IT segmentation, and maintenance windows that respect production schedules aren’t things a generalist improvises well.
How were these rankings determined?
Publicly available review data — Clutch, Google, Cloudtango, DesignRush, as of 2026 — plus published manufacturing-industry capabilities. No provider paid for placement.
Can we switch providers without stopping production?
Yes — a competent successor runs discovery and parallel access before cutover. We complete most manufacturer transitions in under 30 days with no line downtime. See our manufacturing IT services.
What does CMMC readiness actually involve?
A NIST 800-171 gap assessment, an SSP and POA&M, then evidence: MFA, EDR, logging, and access controls that hold up in an audit. Defense-adjacent shops should start with our CMMC compliance for manufacturers overview.
Do you support job shops, or only large manufacturers?
Our manufacturing clients run from single-site job shops to multi-plant operations. The stack scales down gracefully — flat pricing means a 20-person shop gets the same security as a 200-person plant.
