Who We Are  

1. We're a top-tier IT consulting firm, with headquarters in Atlanta and London, providing best-in-class technical solutions for companies across finance, energy, ecomm, logistics, travel, retail, entertainment, auto, and healthcare, specifically for our many end clients, including Microsoft, Google, Johnson and Johnson, Fannie Mae, Walmart, PayPal, T-Mobile, McDonalds, CVS, Verizon, Charter, Nike, Dell, Wells Fargo, Capital One, Charles Schwab, and many more.

We then mentor, develop, and rigorously train the consultants, as mentioned above, to learn one of those said technologies, so they can then provide consultative services to our end clients!   Some of Our Highlights

• Our Expertise: IT consultative services and quality engineer development through recruiting, hiring, and coaching our consultants.
• Longevity: 25+ years' of combined domestic and international experience
