Local IT support
IT services built for Lawrence County.
Lawrence County's business community is anchored by New Castle (the county seat), Ellwood City along Route 65 in the southern portion of the county, and New Wilmington with Westminster College in the north. Each has its own character: New Castle's downtown professional district, Ellwood City's industrial-and-commercial mix, and New Wilmington's college-town economy.
New Castle's business district hosts law firms, accounting practices, financial advisors, medical offices, and the retail and restaurants that support the broader regional population. The Route 422 commercial corridor running through and around the city extends this commercial activity, with operations in plazas and standalone buildings of varying ages.
Healthcare anchors a significant slice of the county's economy, with UPMC Jameson Hospital serving as the regional medical hub. Medical and dental practices throughout the county depend on HIPAA-compliant infrastructure, secure patient records, and reliable telehealth.
Westminster College in New Wilmington adds an academic-and-professional layer to the county, with surrounding businesses facing campus-adjacent IT requirements. Ellwood City's manufacturing legacy and current industrial activity adds another sector to support.
