Delivering Operation Excellence and Product Reliability for Manufacturing Businesses

Unexpected disruptions on the production line, quality control issues, or delayed incident response can have a major impact on manufacturers - affecting output, customer satisfaction and profitability.

In a high pressure environment where downtime is costly and efficiency is key, manufacturers need to ensure their operations are not only streamlined but secure.

Why Somerford?
Somerford has a proven track record of helping manufacturers modernise operations, improve performance, and maintain regulatory compliance. Our sector-specific experience enables us to deliver tailored solutions that unlock efficiency, reduce risk and support long-term growth.
"From providing support and guidance, which led me to speak at the Splunk conference back in 2019, our partnership with Somerford has continued to grow.
We recently transitioned from a Splunk Enterprise solution to Splunk Cloud, a major undertaking for us. Working closely with Somerford gave me the confidence to proceed and allowed me to focus on the business’s needs while migrating to a live Splunk environment.
Currently, we have embarked on a new project analysing sensor data from mechanical equipment using the innovative Splunk Edge Hub. Once again, Somerford Associates have provided both technical and project support, assisting in establishing a proof of concept.
Our next steps will involve leveraging this data through machine learning and artificial intelligence to deliver tangible benefits. Exciting times ahead!"
