Segmentation between production and office networks, a monitored firewall and controlled access. At your size that is configuration rather than significant spend, and it covers most of what the questionnaires actually ask. The disproportionate version is buying enterprise security tooling nobody has time to administer, which we would talk you out of.

Segmentation first — keeping production systems, visitors and finance off one flat network, because supply chain customers increasingly ask you to demonstrate it. Then coverage on the floor, which is a survey job: machinery, dust and steel defeat placement that would be fine in an office. Both are usually cheaper than expected and both are frequently configuration rather than purchase.
