Flat-fee IT support and cybersecurity built for aerospace engineers, defense subcontractors, and space-sector companies working near Kirtland Air Force Base, Sandia National Laboratories, Los Alamos National Laboratory, and Spaceport America. Plans start at $750/month.
Aerospace work in New Mexico runs on more than just secure systems — it runs on being able to prove they’re secure. Whether you’re a machine shop supplying parts for programs tied to Kirtland Air Force Base, an engineering firm supporting Sandia National Laboratories or Los Alamos National Laboratory, or a startup testing hardware near Spaceport America and White Sands Missile Range, your IT has to satisfy two audiences at once: your own engineers, and the compliance frameworks — CMMC, ITAR, NIST 800-171 — that determine whether you keep your contracts.
Even small IT issues carry outsized risk here. A CAD file that syncs slowly is a productivity problem. A network that isn’t properly segmented for Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) is a contract problem. An employee who can access export-controlled technical data without the right access controls is an ITAR problem. In aerospace, downtime and non-compliance both cost real money, and they often come from the same root causes: undocumented networks, missing access controls, and IT decisions made without an eye toward federal requirements.
Zia Networks has spent years supporting small and mid-size businesses across New Mexico’s aerospace and defense supply chain — the machine shops, engineering firms, and technology companies that keep programs at Kirtland AFB, Sandia, Los Alamos, and Spaceport America moving. We provide managed IT services built around that reality: proactive monitoring, encrypted backups, layered cybersecurity, and infrastructure planning that keeps compliance requirements in view from the start, not bolted on after an audit fails.
You get flat monthly pricing, a local New Mexico help desk available 24/7, and a team that understands the difference between generic managed IT and IT service for aerospace companies operating under federal scrutiny. We work with your existing tools and workflows and plan improvements around your budget and your contract timelines — not the other way around.
With Zia Networks handling your technology, your team can stay focused on designing, testing, and building, while we keep your systems secure, documented, and ready for whatever your next audit or contract requires.

Every Aerospace Engineer needs information to help it succeed. Having different types of critical or relevant information resources can help you grow your business and get the best out of your IT investment.
CompTIA Network+ validates the knowledge and skills of networking professionals. It is an international, vendor-neutral certification that recognizes a technician’s ability to describe the features and functions of networking components and to manage, maintain, troubleshoot, install, operate and configure basic network infrastructure.
The CompTIA Security+ certification designates knowledgeable professionals in the field of security, one of the fastest-growing fields in IT. Security threats are increasing in number and severity, and the gap between the need for security professionals and qualified IT personnel is the largest of any IT specialty.
A CCENT certification opens the doors to a career in networking. Having your CCENT means you have what it takes to manage a small, enterprise branch network. A CCENT is your first step toward CCNA certification and will help you stand out from the crowd in entry-level positions.
Cisco is the worldwide leader in networking that transforms how people connect, communicate and collaborate. Cisco Channel Partner Program have access to the solutions, training, tools and support needed to help satisfy their customers.
The ability to perform basic troubleshooting and repair of both desktop and portable Macintosh systems, such as iMac and MacBook Pro. ACMT certification exams emphasize identifying and resolving common Mac OS X problems and using Apple Service and Support products and practices.

If your company handles Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) as part of a Department of Defense contract — including work that flows down from Sandia National Laboratories, Kirtland Air Force Base, or prime contractors — you will likely need to meet CMMC Level 2 requirements, which are built on the 110 controls in NIST SP 800-171.
Managed IT support for aerospace companies usually includes device and network support, encrypted backups, layered cybersecurity, and infrastructure planning that accounts for compliance frameworks like CMMC, ITAR, and NIST 800-171 — in addition to standard help desk support.
Zia Networks’ baseline managed IT plan starts at $750 per month for up to 10 endpoints, with flat monthly pricing so costs stay predictable as your team grows.
Yes. Zia Networks supports aerospace, engineering, and defense-adjacent businesses across the Albuquerque, Santa Fe, Los Alamos, and Rio Rancho areas, including companies that supply or partner with organizations near Kirtland AFB, Sandia National Laboratories, and Spaceport America.
