Computech International (CTI), established as a privately held company in 1995, is a solutions provider for a wide variety of corporate, government, educational, health and public service sectors. Initially, the company focused on providing storage systems to the digital content creation (DCC) industry -- systems that were designed and built for very demanding users in 24/7 environments.

Utilizing the experience gained from successfully serving this market, CTI expanded its operation to offer full turnkey audio and video editing stations for sale through A/V dealers in the US. Further, they began cultivating solid relationships with IBM and a host of other major multimedia hardware and software vendors.

These relationships, along with their ever-growing expertise, allowed them to offer a full range of services - from designing through implementation and installation to support and training.

CTI is proud to offer its capabilities in the broadest sense. The depth and breadth of their field experience and established business relationships, augmented by a great capacity and genuine eagerness to learn quickly, allow them to address new challenges - large or small.

When dealing with a client, CTI follows a clearly defined procedure. First they enquire about their needs. Often the customer has a shopping list, either compiled internally or by an outsourced expert. CTI tries to get beyond these initial perceptions and determine which solutions or services are realistically required in order to meet their actual objectives. Once they understand the full scope of the project it becomes much easier to determine the elements of the solution. These components can include hardware and software, installation and training as well as maintenance, service and repair, design and coordination services - a full gamut of possibilities.

A proposal is then submitted with further discussion and refinement provided, if needed. Once everything is finalized a schedule is created. Necessary items are ordered with particular attention to the timetable. Items that can be pre-assembled and tested in the company’s facility are worked on and delivered to the customer’s site.

The project is then fully tested and demonstrated to the customer, along with any training that is required. Follow up status calls are made. If any maintenance and upgrade services have been agreed upon, they are pursued according to schedule.
