Our Story
Over 40 years ago, our journey began in a modest apartment with a simple mission: to deliver reliable field services with integrity, precision, and a customer-first mindset. Armed with determination and a vision for something greater, our founder and CEO rolled up his sleeves and got to work—solving complex problems one client at a time, often with limited resources but an unlimited commitment to service.
As the demand for connectivity and digital infrastructure grew, so did we. What started as a small field services outfit evolved steadily into a full-fledged technology services provider. We expanded our capabilities, built a reputation for excellence, and earned the trust of some of the world’s most recognized brands. Each milestone reflected our relentless focus on innovation, responsiveness, and doing right by our clients—no matter the challenge.
Today, we are a multimillion-dollar global corporation offering end-to-end managed network services, field engineering, and technology deployment solutions. But we’ve never forgotten our roots. That same entrepreneurial spirit that drove our CEO to start this company in a one-bedroom apartment still powers us today—only now, it fuels a team of hundreds across the world, all working to keep businesses connected, secure, and future-ready.

Industry Recognition
Industry expertise is at the heart of our operation, giving our clients the confidence and knowledge that their network is in the hands of a technology leader.
While we feel honored to receive industry awards, and are especially proud of awards we receive from our clients, recognition for our achievements humbles us as well. We are proud of what we’ve accomplished, yet we will never stop striving to achieve even more.
