Our Clients
Technology Runs Every Industry. We Support Many of Them.
From accounting firms to machine shops, the businesses and organizations we work with have one thing in common: they depend on their technology working every day. Here is how that shows up across the industries we serve.

Accounting, Insurance, Financial, and Legal Services
Insurance agencies
Financial advisory
Law firms
Clients hand these firms their most sensitive records and expect fast, accurate answers in return. How a firm runs its technology is now a competitive question as well as a compliance one. Tax and accounting firms of any size must also keep a written security plan under federal rules.

Real Estate, Architecture, Engineering, and Construction
Architecture and engineering
Construction
Drawings, specs, and contracts live on shared systems that connect the office to the field. When people cannot reach the latest version, work stops or gets redone. Project teams feel an outage in the schedule within days.
77%
of design and construction firms said blocked access to project documents for more than five days would cause critical schedule delays.

Manufacturing and Production
Printing and packaging
Machine shops and fabrication
A production line is only as steady as the systems behind it. Orders, scheduling, inventory, and the equipment on the floor all depend on a network that has to be there every shift. Ransomware is now involved in most manufacturing breaches, and recovering from it means stopped production, not just lost files.
61%
of manufacturing data breaches involved ransomware.

Trades and Field Services
Landscaping
Automotive repair and dealerships
Utilities and infrastructure
Crews make money in the field, not at a keyboard. Scheduling, dispatch, job details, and invoicing need to work from the office, the truck, and the job site without slowing anyone down. Every minute spent fighting a device or chasing paperwork is a minute not billed.
30%
of an average technician’s working hours go to administrative tasks and information gathering, slightly more than the 28% spent delivering service.

Healthcare and Animal Care
Behavioral health and therapy
Veterinary and animal care
Patient and client records are some of the most regulated data a small practice handles, and staff need them available all day. A practice that keeps records digitally carries the job of protecting them whether it chose that role or not. Most large healthcare breaches now come from hacking and other IT incidents.

Education and Nonprofit
Nonprofit
Schools and nonprofits look after people who trust them with sensitive information, often with small teams and tight budgets. In a school, technology now touches every classroom, so student data and student safety depend on how it is set up and watched. For a nonprofit, a security problem is also a trust problem with the donors who fund the mission.

Marketing, Creative, and Staffing
Staffing and recruiting
Agencies and staffing firms run on people who work from anywhere, and on client and candidate information that has to stay safe. Strong technology lets a team collaborate from any location without slowing down. Weak technology shows up as lost files, locked accounts, and clients who notice.

remote-capable employees prefer a hybrid schedule, and 53% already work one.

Retail, Hospitality, and Wholesale
Restaurants and food service
Wholesale and distribution
When the doors are open, the network has to be too. Registers, card terminals, inventory counts, and online orders all depend on the same connection, and customers do not wait. For wholesalers and distributors, the same systems carry orders, phones, and shipping.

consumer payments are made with credit or debit cards, so a payment outage can stop most sales.

Alpha Tech Pet
Dr. Shawn Seitz, CEO, describes Cleartech Group’s expertise, proactive approach, and fast response time.
The businesses least likely to describe themselves as dependent on IT are frequently the ones with the least visibility into how much they actually rely on it.
That gap between reliance and awareness is where the real cost shows up. Not in the technology itself, but in the moment a business discovers a plan it needed and never had.
