The mission of CFT is to provide consulting and solutions for small businesses that cannot afford a full-time IT person. We're a Microsoft Certified Partner, as well as a Dell Shop (meaning, we sell Dell products and use them internally).

Typically we enter an arrangement with a company by being referred by an existing customer. We discuss needs (whether it be Technology solutions, such as Workflow Streamlining, Web/Email/FTP hosting, Workstation/Server purchases, etc. or Financial solutions, such as financial analysis of the corporation and discussions on better ways to run the company) and either purchase items on behalf of the clients (Dell Laptops, for example) or build the machines to custom specs and sell them directly to the client (Servers, client workstations). We provide Microsoft and other affiliated solutions to business problems, Video conferencing, and systems automation.


Quite simply, getting IT right remains a struggle for most organizations. According to a Gartner study, the average company wastes 20 percent of its corporate IT budget on purchases that fail to meet their original objectives. We have seen and corrected IT failures firsthand, and drawing from experience we have come up with three simple principles for successfully managing IT:

 

  • a long-term IT renewal plan linked to corporate strategy
  • a simplified, unifying corporate technology platform
  • a highly functional, performance-oriented IT organization
