Hurix Digital Modernizes IT Infrastructure for $500M Seattle Manufacturer

Hurix Digital Modernizes IT Infrastructure for $500M Seattle Manufacturer

Mumbai, July 2025 – Hurix Digital has completed a cloud modernization project for a Seattle manufacturer struggling with outdated technology. The company, which generates over $500 million annually, turned to Hurix Digital when its IT problems started affecting its bottom line.

The manufacturer’s situation was getting worse by the month. Cranky old data centers failed just when production hit its busiest hours. Workers stared at empty screens while servers rebooted again and again. Shipments got delayed, and that angered retailers waiting on new stock. Big clients began raising tough, awkward questions about how reliable the company truly was. Past consultants had simply pushed costly, temporary fixes that did little to solve the root problems.

Hurix Digital took a different approach. Their Cloud Solutions team spent weeks on the ground, interviewing factory floor managers up through C-suite executives. They captured all the servers, applications, and workflows. They went further than merely listing hardware shortcomings, as they also discovered the business costs of each technical shortfall. As a result, they developed a migration plan that was truly useful for an organization that cannot afford downtime.

Nitesh Kumar, Vice President and Strategic Business Unit Head – Cloud Services, Hurix Digital, explained the complexity of the project: “You can’t just flip a switch and move a manufacturer to the cloud. These companies run 24/7. One mistake costs millions. We developed a migration plan that works around their reality. Move the critical stuff first. Test everything twice. Keep the production lines running. That’s how you earn trust in manufacturing.”

Top management emphasized the significance of this project. A senior manager shared, “Hurix defined a reliable IT modernization and cloud adoption strategy that helped us win back our customers’ trust by ensuring highly available, high-performing, and secure IT services.”

The solution wasn’t a one-size-fits-all template. Hurix Digital created a step-by-step migration plan that moved systems in a careful sequence. They started with backup systems and disaster recovery. Once those proved stable, they tackled core applications. Each phase included extensive testing and rollback procedures. Nothing moved to production until everyone felt confident.

What made this project work was the focus on business outcomes, not technology metrics. Sure, the manufacturer got faster servers and better uptime. But they also gained something more valuable. Production managers could check equipment status from their phones. Finance teams got real-time cost data instead of monthly reports. Maintenance crews predicted problems before machines broke down.

For Hurix Digital, this win proves they belong in the enterprise transformation space. Educational institutions aren’t their only market anymore. Any organization wrestling with legacy technology could benefit from their systematic approach to modernization.
