SECURE THIRD PARTY COMMUNICATIONS

Manufacturing and Engineering Solutions

Ensure Secret Recipes Stay Secret

Protect Intellectual Property

Patents, copyrights and trademarks keep barriers to entry high. If a rogue employee or competitor steals your product designs or customer lists, first mover advantage is lost. The Kiteworks platform provides engineering and manufacturing firms critical control of and visibility into who accesses, modifies or shares your coveted trade secrets.

Connect to Content Wherever It’s Stored

Avoid Production Delays

Engineering and manufacturing firms need unfettered access to equipment maintenance schedules, vendor contracts, and employee overtime records to keep production timelines on track and gross margins intact. Searching for these files in disparate systems and applications, some on prem, others in the cloud, waste time and threaten production schedules. Engineering and manufacturing employees in the back office, on the plant floor or at the job site, have a single point of access to these documents with the Kiteworks platform.

Eliminate Shadow IT Risks

Send Product Files Simply and Securely

Engineering and manufacturing firms frequently share large, sensitive files like blueprints, product schematics, EIR reports, and other sensitive information with trusted partners. When sanctioned file sharing solutions are cumbersome or require IT involvement, however, employees choose less secure alternatives that introduce unnecessary risk. Engineering and manufacturing firms utilize the Kiteworks platform to share large and sensitive files safely and efficiently without jeopardizing their competitive advantage.

Access Information When It Matters Most

Get Product Information in Real-time

Manufacturing sales professionals must have the latest pricing information and product brochures when visiting customers and partners. Similarly, licensed service technicians need the latest product manuals and parts lists when making repairs. The Kiteworks platform ensures manufacturing employees and partners have fast, simple access to the most current product information to enable maximum productivity and customer satisfaction.
