Business Challenge
As part of a digital workplace and multi-cloud transformation strategy, a UK-based manufacturing and distribution company required more elastic and reliable network services across its remote locations. The goal was to reduce downtime and improve visibility across the voice, data and WLAN environments.
Systal’s Solution
The client engaged Systal to design and deliver a modern network architecture based on Cisco’s ENCS platform, implementing Network Function Virtualisation (NFV) and SD-WAN technologies. Key actions included:
- Network Review: Assessed and improved availability across the existing voice, data and WLAN environments
- SD-WAN Deployment: Delivered with Cisco E-Series ENCS for scalable, remote-friendly infrastructure
- Network Monitoring: Implemented Paessler PRTG for real-time performance tracking, bandwidth analysis and alerting
Key Outcomes
- Incident Reduction: Significant drop in P1 and P2 network incidents following stabilisation and reconfiguration
- Proactive Monitoring: Early detection of issues via bandwidth threshold alerts and live dashboards
- Rapid Resolution: Coordinated onsite response through integrated Systal teams to minimise disruption
Business Impact
Systal’s work resulted in a dramatically more resilient and visible network environment. With fewer critical incidents, improved monitoring and a future-proofed SD-WAN foundation, the manufacturer can support ongoing digital transformation initiatives with confidence.
