Business in Rugby
Rugby has an engineering base rooted in heavy electrical and turbine work that continues in specialist form, alongside cement production, and a very large distribution presence using the position where the M1, M6 and A14 converge — one of the most significant logistics locations in the country. The town centre serves a substantial catchment, and the school gives it a visitor trade. Large sheds and precision engineering firms sit within a few miles of each other with entirely different requirements.

Rugby — common questions
We operate at DIRFT. What does connectivity need to look like there?
Sized for the busiest hour and dual-pathed, because rail freight interchange operations do not have quiet periods to absorb an outage. A leased line with a guaranteed fix time plus automatic mobile failover is the standard answer. Coverage across the shed itself is a separate design problem and usually needs more access points than anyone expects.
Our engineering side and our warehouse side keep arguing about the network. Why?
Because they are genuinely different problems sharing one circuit. Engineering traffic is upload-heavy and bursty; warehouse traffic is constant and latency-sensitive for scanning. Sizing for one starves the other. The fix is sizing on combined peak and prioritising so neither can starve voice, rather than either side winning the argument.
We are an engineering business in Rugby with a large site. What is the usual gap?
Coverage away from the offices — across the works, the yard and wherever material is moved. Office access points do not reach those places and were never meant to, so the fix is a survey with the site in its normal working state and outdoor-rated hardware where it is genuinely outdoors. The second gap is failover where a stoppage costs real money.
