Day 1 – 26th February 2026 – 12:00 | Track B
Solve infrastructure and security challenges in today’s connected world
Modern manufacturing runs on connectivity. Your plants, warehouses, offices and cloud systems all depend on a globally reliable network. When the network fails, production stops.
As manufacturers embrace smart factory tools to drive innovation and competitive differentiation, it is crucial to have a secure, high-performance networking foundation that keeps pace with these technological shifts. GTT helps global manufacturers modernize their networks to keep production lines moving, data flowing and teams connected wherever you build, ship or serve.
Connecting the end-to-end manufacturing ecosystem
Manufacturers are linking more of their world together than ever before: plants, suppliers, logistics partners, engineering teams, ERP systems, OT equipment, and cloud services. When these environments aren’t well connected, downtime increases, performance dips and visibility disappears.
GTT’s global, secure cloud networking changes that. With GTT, you can:
- Ensure real-time operational visibility across production environments
- Improve quality checks with consistent connectivity across sites
- Accelerate cloud adoption without sacrificing reliability and security
- Bring new plants and logistics locations online faster
- Gain a single, unified view across global operations
Whether you’re expanding production, standardizing systems or increasing supply chain resiliency, GTT designs and deploys high-performance secure networking foundations that support innovation without adding complexity.
The benefits of GTT’s manufacturing expertise
Global connectivity that keeps production moving
Your operations need secure, reliable, predictable performance across every site, from the mainfactory to the smallest branch office. GTT brings your environments together through Secure Connect, Managed SD-WAN, Cloud Connect, and our global Tier 1 IP backbone, delivering a cohesive network experience.
Without GTT
- Regional networks with inconsistent performance
- Slow, complex onboarding of new plants and logistics sites
- Limited visibility into network or app performance
With GTT
- One global network with centralized control
- Faster, simpler turn-up of new sites
- Consistent performance for your critical cloud applications such as MES, ERP, digital twins, analytics
HMY Group implemented Managed SD-WAN across its global locations, reducing network costs by 22% while doubling site bandwidth to support production and design workloads.
Built-in cyber resilience and zero-trust access
With increasing cyber threats across both IT and OT environments, you can protect both by embedding security directly into your network with Secure Connect, Zero-Trust Network Access, Managed Detection and Response, Managed Firewall and DDoS protection.
Without GTT
- Legacy OT systems exposed to modern attacks
- Inconsistent global security controls
- Limited visibility into threats
With GTT
- Globally consistent protection across every site
- Zero-trust access enforced by user, device and context
- Faster detection and response via global SOCs
Mitsubishi Electric UK deployed SD-WAN and advanced security services to modernize its network across UK and Ireland with tightened access controls, enhanced threat detection, and improved overall resilience.
Cloud-smart and edge-ready performance
Some workloads belong in the cloud. Others must stay close to the production line, where milliseconds matter. GTT helps you place applications where they perform best without compromising security or control.
Without GTT
- Latency issues impacting robotics, analytics, digital twins
- Unpredictable cloud performance
- Fragmented visibility across on-prem, edge, and cloud
With GTT
- Private, high-performance connectivity to major cloud providers
- Optimized workload placement (cloud or edge)
- Unified application and network visibility via GTT EnvisionDX
Etex modernized its global network with SD-WAN and Cloud Connect to support its multi-cloud strategy, improving visibility, strengthening reliability and optimizing application performance across 160+ sites.
Simpler operations, more control for lean IT teams
Manufacturing IT teams often support dozens — even hundreds — of globally distributed sites with limited resources. GTT takes on project, technical and service management so you can focus on higher-value work.
Without GTT
- IT is juggling multi-vendor networks
- Long deployment timelines, inconsistent standards
- Too many escalations and slow troubleshooting
With GTT
- One accountable partner across all regions
- Standardized architectures and consistent global delivery
- Proactive optimization guided by shared telemetry
Barry Callebaut deployed a global Managed SD-WAN architecture across 130+ sites, simplifying operations and improving reliability across manufacturing and logistics networks.
