 ![Man writing on a glass board covered in colorful sticky notes]()

A leading mechanical construction company needed to unify IT across multiple operating companies while closing critical disaster recovery (DR) and business continuity (BC) gaps. With investor due diligence approaching, those gaps carried greater business risk. The company needed consistent protection across platforms, Microsoft 365, and critical workloads without adding complexity. Expedient Push Button DR On Demand + Backup as a Service (BaaS) delivered a unified approach to strengthen resilience and establish a standardized, audit-ready platform.
