We envision that IT services will eventually migrate to lower cost of living areas, much the same way that manufacturing moved from urban areas to rural areas. We also believe that the same manufacturing concepts that have been successfully applied to manufacturing processes can –  and will – be applied to IT processes. Thus, we see the concept of the “IT factory” and the origin of our name, 1901 Group, after the year the assembly line was created.

• We believe that the Internet, broadband, and mobility change everything.
• We believe the core element of IT strategy and a true business differentiator is the equity you build in your enterprise network through practical innovation and appropriate investment.
• We thrive on the ideal that the next generation of winners will make innovative investments in IT infrastructure that transform their organization strategy.
• We appreciate the different challenges that organizations face as they grow, contract, change, and evolve.
• We believe we can solve problems best when we work as a team with our clients.
• We come from a variety of backgrounds and experiences. Because of our diversity, we relish the idea of healthy debate, collective discourse, and cooperative action.
• We bring together a unique collection of innovators from management consulting, product development, systems design and implementation, security engineering, and voice and data network engineering.
• We’ve infused the best and eliminated the worst practices from our collective experiences at large companies, start-ups, and in the public sector.
• We have a flat organizational structure where people are evaluated on their contributions to client success, not by rank.
