# From 70+ Sites to One Cloud-Managed Network

How Elevance transformed a 70+ site UK retail and distribution network into a centrally managed Cisco Meraki platform with stronger security and estate-wide visibility.

**Sector:** UK retail, manufacturing and distribution group  |  **Scale:** 70+ UK sites

**The challenge**

A geographically dispersed estate of stores, mills, warehouses and offices relied on inconsistent network equipment and operating standards. Visibility and support were difficult at group scale.

**The Elevance approach**

Elevance designed and led the rollout of a standardised Cisco Meraki network architecture, creating a centrally managed platform for connectivity, security and future digital services.

**What we delivered**

- Created repeatable site designs and configuration standards
- Planned phased deployment across more than 70 UK locations
- Standardised security, segmentation and connectivity policies
- Established cloud-based monitoring and estate visibility
- Integrated support, alerting and lifecycle management processes

**Business outcomes**

- More reliable connectivity across the estate
- Centralised monitoring and configuration
- Faster fault diagnosis and support
- Stronger, more consistent security controls
- A scalable platform for stores, operations and cloud services
