Enhancing IT Agility for an Expanding Aircraft Company

Discover how Hikru revolutionized IT operations for a rapidly expanding Florida-based aircraft company with comprehensive IT support and management.

Client overview

The aircraft company, based in Florida, was experiencing rapid international expansion across Europe and Asia. This growth led to increased demands on their IT department, which struggled to keep up with the requirements of a burgeoning global presence. The company faced significant challenges, including round-the-clock IT support needs, high overtime costs, and operational risks due to untimely IT responses.

The challenge

The company’s IT team was stretched thin, leading to delayed responses to business needs and potential outages. The additional burden of managing IT support, server patching, routine maintenance, and security requirements became overwhelming. Furthermore, the transition to remote work during the pandemic exacerbated the IT demands, and the logistics of moving physical IT facilities added to the complexity.
