Supporting Burnley businesses
Manufacturing employs a large share of Burnley's workforce, with aerospace at the heart of it. Companies in and around the town make parts for aircraft engines, nacelles and structures, and they feed into the supply chains of major aerospace firms. Engineering, automotive components and advanced materials businesses are also common, many based on industrial estates near the M65, including Burnley Bridge Business Park.
The town centre has been regenerating, helped by the University of Central Lancashire's Burnley campus and the Burnley College sixth form and further education campus, which sit together in the Princess Way area. The Weavers' Triangle, the canal-side area of old cotton mills, is being redeveloped for business and leisure. Burnley FC brings visitors to Turf Moor, and nearby Pendle and the Ribble Valley support rural, tourism and food businesses.
For aerospace and engineering suppliers, IT security is a business requirement. Customers ask for strong controls on technical data, MFA, encrypted devices and regular patching, and many require Cyber Essentials. Shop-floor machines and inspection PCs sometimes run older software that needs to be kept on a separate network. CAD and ERP systems need reliable backups and well-managed user accounts. Smaller local businesses, from cafés to trades, want websites that work and are secure, reliable email and quick help with Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace. Firms in rural areas around Pendle often need better connectivity and backup broadband.

Can you help a Burnley aerospace supplier with security requirements?
Yes. We put in place MFA, encryption, patching, backups and access controls for technical data, and help you prepare for Cyber Essentials. Work is remote from Mansfield, and bigger projects are quoted upfront.
Do you cover Nelson, Colne and Padiham?
Yes. We support businesses across Burnley and Pendle, including Nelson, Colne, Padiham, Brierfield and Barnoldswick. Plans start from £25 a month + VAT, and ad-hoc work is £45 an hour + VAT.
Our shop-floor PCs run old software. What should we do?
Keep them on a separate network segment with tightly limited internet access and controlled file transfers. We can review your network and set up segmentation, quoting any new equipment first.
