The head office of Grange Quarry

Case Study:

Grange Quarry

Grange Quarry is a family run business that was founded in 2000. It is now one of the largest suppliers of high quality aggregates and ready mix concrete in South West Scotland and North Cumbria.

Objectives

Grange Quarry required a more reliable and forward-thinking technology partner after experiencing critical service failures with their previous managed service provider.

In parallel, one of their key production sites was suffering from unreliable connectivity. Grange Quarry wanted to eliminate single points of failure, improve resilience across all of their locations, and work with a provider capable of supporting future digital transformation, rather than reacting to problems after they had occurred.

The Project

Project Type:  IT Support Wifi & Networking Business Phone Systems

Redesigning Grange Quarry IT and connectivity landscape across their five fixed sites and four mobile concrete plants to provide stability, system consistency and resilience and future scalability.

The initial focus was on removing immediate operational risk by implementing proper certificate management and improving remote site connectivity using Starlink, alongside correctly configured network equipment.

This was followed by a broader programme of infrastructure improvement, including:

  • Dual-WAN connectivity at all sites with multipath site-to-site routing
  • A routed subnet at Head Office to support their self-hosted ERP platform
  • Upgraded and standardised CCTV systems across all sites
  • Cloud-hosted VoIP telephony to improve resilience and communications
  • Migration to SharePoint to modernise collaboration and data access

Why Corona IT Solutions?

Grange Quarry were looking for a dependable, trustworthy partner who would take ownership of their entire technology estate. Rather than isolated fixes, they wanted proactive management, visibility of risks before they became incidents, and a team capable of supporting both operational needs and strategic planning.

Grange Quarry are now supported under an ongoing managed service agreement, with Corona IT Solutions acting as their trusted technology partner, providing a single point of accountability for all of their technology, proactively identifying and resolving issues before they impact operations.
