Convergint Technologies' Proven Model for Growth: Enterprise Integration
Enabling its vision of Quadrant Four enterprise-level integration has brought SDM Systems Integrator of the Year, Convergint Technologies, positive results and a proven path for growth during transition.
In systems integrator circles, Convergint Technologies is a company that people admire. Homegrown by Greg Lernihan, president and co-founder, and Dan Moceri, CEO and co-founder, Convergint was born of a strategic plan that centered on a core platform of values and beliefs. Those value and beliefs, which still guide the company today, promise results and satisfaction for customers; emphasize integrity, accountability and communication from Convergint’s colleagues; foster a positive and fun work environment; and express the importance of leading balanced lives.
Back in early 2001, forming those values and beliefs was an exercise in business self-awareness — in essence, it meant deciding who Convergint would be to its colleagues (at first there were just 10 people employed, today there are nearly 1,100) and what it would offer to the market. It meant envisioning the future needs of business, industry, and institutions like schools and hospitals — and conceiving the products and services that would long remain viable to help them solve security problems, manage costs and comply with regulations.
