IT, cloud and security services in Industrial Area
Industrial Area is the heart of Nairobi's manufacturing, FMCG, and logistics economy — Enterprise Road, Likoni Road, Lusaka Road, Lunga Lunga Road, and Mombasa Road all feed plants, distribution centres, cold-chain warehouses, and processing facilities that run 24/7 on SAP Business One, SYSPRO, custom-built MRP systems, and WhatsApp-integrated dispatch workflows. The technology pain here is operational: SAP environments slowing under storage bottlenecks, dispatch teams running on paper LPOs, perimeter CCTV gaps on 5-10 hectare site footprints, and network designs that haven't been segmented since the plant was built. 912's FMCG automation work (the pitch-deck case — LPO scanning, accuracy reports generated, real-time WhatsApp updates to stakeholders, audit-ready release-from-go-down workflows) was built for exactly this profile and contributed to a stated 14% profitability lift. Server virtualization with the Swing Migration protocol modernizes the on-prem ERP estate without taking production offline. SAP HANA DR with documented failover runbooks protects ETIMS-compliant invoicing during site failure. From Westlands we cover Industrial Area in 25-30 minutes outside rush hour with documented site survey, install, and AMC service templates.

Infrastructure context
Industrial Area power is grid-dependent with frequent voltage fluctuations — UPS sizing and generator runtime are critical for any SAP, NVR, or production-line workload. Internet redundancy via multiple ISPs is a baseline requirement; MPLS connections to upstream warehouses or regional depots need QoS for SAP traffic. CCTV deployments span 5-10 hectare footprints with mixed indoor/outdoor camera placement, long CAT6 outdoor runs, and NVR storage sized for 30-90 day retention.
Compliance considerations
- •KRA ETIMS — manufacturing and FMCG businesses are heavily VAT-registered; SAP HANA DR scope must explicitly test ETIMS after failover so invoicing resumes immediately.
- •KEBS standards — manufacturing operations have product-conformity obligations that drive process-traceability requirements; we design workflow automation around audit-ready reporting.
- •Occupational safety regulations — CCTV deployments on production floors have specific privacy + safety obligations.
