Enabling a Newly Divested Chemical Manufacturer to Build and Sustain IT Infrastructure Operations
Executive Summary
When a chemical manufacturer divested from its parent company, it needed to set up IT capabilities from the ground up. We stepped in at this crucial moment, implementing a secure, scalable, and high-performance IT infrastructure. Post-deployment, our managed services (still ongoing) ensured continuous optimization, proactive monitoring, and end-to-end IT support. As a result, the company successfully transitioned into a fully operational independent entity.
