The Wildcat Business Group of companies has consistently won awards for its service and community commitment in the Santa Clarita Valley. One of the founders, Joe Messina, had been the Assistant National Area Service Manager for a large broadcasting company. They relied on him and a small group to keep over 400 users in 8 major cities connected and running with real-time information with little or no budget to speak of.

The group quickly learned how to find and use technology to its fullest without having to have every "bell and whistle" available. The old, "Do more with less" mentality was applied, but with a twist: Work with excellence and maximum productivity in mind.

The group was able to save the company hundreds of thousands of dollars over a very short period of time by using technology wisely. The result, a group of people who understood you don't have to strain a client's bank account to give them cutting edge technologies and have them function, feel, and look like a Fortune 1000 company.
