IT, automation, and security for Scottsboro businesses
OneBody serves Scottsboro and the rest of Jackson County — the business is based in the county and the owner lives here. Jackson County's industrial base runs more than 80 companies against a civilian labor force of 21,034 — textiles, refrigeration, packaging, and auto supply. We handle the systems those businesses run on: automation, document digitization, cybersecurity, and IT that someone actually owns.
What business in Scottsboro actually looks like
The county’s largest employer is headquartered here: Maples Industries, a Scottsboro rug manufacturer with 1,350 employees across four local facilities. Behind it in the county’s top ten are HTPG at 454, Lozier at 444, WestRock at 410, and Sanoh America at 260 — refrigeration, store fixtures, packaging, and auto parts (North Alabama Industrial Development Association, Jackson County profile). Below that top ten sits the actual client base: the 20- and 40-person companies that supply, service, and staff those plants.
The Bridgeport data center changed the county's timeline
Google announced a $1.5 billion expansion of its Bridgeport data center, here in Jackson County, on June 15, 2026, with more than 1,000 contract workers on site during construction. OneBody has no affiliation with Google, the county, or its economic development authority. What matters is second-order: a county actively recruiting data and technology employers starts holding its existing small businesses to the vendor-onboarding and security standards those employers expect. That paperwork lands on 15-person companies that have never seen it before. The full analysis is in our Bridgeport article.
What we do for businesses here
Automation & Custom Software
Order and job data typed once instead of three times, from the customer email to the system that bills it.

Document Digitization
Travelers, work orders, and inspection forms captured as work happens, so nobody assembles a binder at audit time.

Cybersecurity & CMMC
The vendor questionnaire a bigger customer just sent you, answered honestly — and the gaps behind it, fixed in score order.

Every system inventoried, including the server nobody reboots, then modernized one safe step at a time.

Based in the county
On-site work — assessment walkthroughs, cutovers, hardware, training — happens in person. Monitoring and build work happen remotely.
Frequently asked questions
Are you actually local, or is this a Huntsville firm with a Scottsboro page?
Local. The business is run from Jackson County, Alabama, and the owner lives here. There is no Huntsville office and no Scottsboro storefront — it is a service-area business, which is why the address is not published.
We're a 12-person shop supplying a plant. Are we too small?
No. Managed IT starts at a $750 per month account minimum, and the assessment is $3,500 or $4,500 fixed depending on size. Both numbers are published on the pricing page, so you can decide whether it is worth a call before you make one.
What's the first thing you'd look at?
Wherever the same information gets typed twice. In a shop that means orders, job travelers, and invoices; in an office it means intake and billing. The assessment ranks those by what they cost per year, so the first project is the one with the largest number next to it.
