History

Coleman Technologies, Inc. (CTI) was founded in
1995 as a new kind of IT and systems engineering company.

The company’s genesis goes back to 1980, however, when Jeff Coleman founded Coleman Research Corporation (CRC) based on the idea that a small, nimble, engineering services company could compete with larger aerospace players by using advanced simulation tools, a talented workforce, and a systems engineering methodology.

Founded by a handful of engineers, with headquarters in Orlando, Florida, CTI was built on the same values, culture, and systems engineering approach that helped CRC grow from a small player to an industry leader.

On January 1, CTI announced its merger with and into Presidio Networked Solutions.

Speaking on the deal, Ben Patz, Chief Executive Officer of Coleman Technologies, Inc, commented, "Joining with Presidio broadens the solutions we can offer our customers, expands our market for innovative solutions and enhances our ability to invest in our people and processes. Moving forward, our combined teams will continue to deliver the same innovative services and solutions that have differentiated us in the marketplace and upon which our customers have come to depend."

Joel Schleicher, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Presidio, Inc., stated, "We are ecstatic with this combination due to Coleman's stellar reputation, unique approach to the market, and culture. We view the Coleman team as the perfect complement to Presidio. There are few companies that offer the engineering/implementation excellence, customer satisfaction approach and are as forward thinking, from a standpoint of utilizing technology as a productivity enhancement tool for their customers, as Coleman."
