Manufacturing & Industrial IT/OT Solutions — Saudi Arabia

The National Industrial Development and Logistics Program and giga-projects like Oxagon are pushing Saudi manufacturing toward Industry 4.0 — connected shop floors, machine data, predictive maintenance and digital twins. But connecting a factory exposes operational technology that was never designed for the open network: PLCs, SCADA, MES and production-line controllers now share data paths with enterprise IT. Skyline designs and secures the IT/OT backbone for factories, plants and industrial cities across Jubail, Yanbu, Dammam, Riyadh's industrial zones and beyond.

We build resilient shop-floor networks and industrial wireless that survive dust, heat and electrical noise, segment OT from enterprise IT so a phishing email can't reach a production line, and integrate manufacturing execution systems (MES), SCADA and IoT machine-data collection into a single secure architecture. Predictive-maintenance and energy-management programmes need reliable telemetry from the floor to the dashboard, and we engineer the connectivity and storage that makes that data trustworthy.

Industrial cybersecurity is now a board-level concern. We harden OT environments, deploy industrial firewalls and monitoring, and align with NCA cybersecurity controls and OT-security best practice, while keeping production constraints front and centre — work happens in maintenance windows with rollback plans. We are vendor-neutral across automation, network and security platforms, integrating with the OEM systems already on your floor.

The hardest part of a smart-factory project is rarely the technology — it is doing it without losing a shift. A production line that stops costs real money by the minute, so our method is deliberately conservative: passively discover and map every controller and protocol first, design the segmentation and data-collection architecture on paper, then implement in agreed maintenance windows with a tested rollback for every change. We respect that a twenty-year-old PLC running a critical process may never be patched and instead protect it with compensating controls. The payoff is a factory that finally produces trustworthy machine data — feeding OEE dashboards, predictive-maintenance alerts and energy-efficiency reporting — on a network that is both connected for Industry 4.0 and walled off from the threats that connection invites.
