G&W Electric Co. Tech Stack

Power distribution equipment manufacturer with 120+ years in switchgear and cable accessories

Appliances, Electrical, and Electronics Manufacturing Bolingbrook, IL 1,001–5,000 employees Founded 1905 Privately Held

G&W Electric manufactures specialized electrical equipment for power systems—switchgear, reclosers, cable accessories, and distribution automation solutions. The company runs a manufacturing-heavy operation (132 of 199 open roles in manufacturing) with active new-product-development pipelines, but pain points around process control, safety compliance, and production scheduling suggest the engineering-operations bridge is under strain. Stack is predominantly legacy enterprise (Oracle JD Edwards, ServiceNow, Salesforce) with industrial control systems (Rockwell, Siemens, Ignition); no cloud or modern data infrastructure in use.
