A precision-engineering firm ran its CNC machining lines well below industry benchmarks for equipment effectiveness, with downtime recorded on paper and maintenance entirely reactive. We connected the machines and gave the floor live data, OEE dashboards and predictive alerts.
Unplanned downtime was running at several hours per line per day, but nobody could say reliably why — downtime causes were written on job cards after the event, and the data was incomplete. Tooling was replaced on a fixed schedule rather than on condition, and maintenance only found out about problems when a machine stopped.

Local government NHZ Global supplied and customised a mobile device management platform that lets a London borough council's IT team lock down, configure and support frontline Android devices from one console — later licensed to a second borough.
Local government / passenger transport Councils run hundreds of daily home-to-school journeys for children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). Sendtra gives the transport office one place to plan routes, allocate drivers and passenger assistants, and see every journey happening — with a driver app that replaces paper run sheets.
Trading & distribution Al Shahama Trading replaced spreadsheets and WhatsApp threads with a CRM built around the way their sales team actually works — from first enquiry to quotation to order — hosted and supported by NHZ Global on a monthly plan.
