Challenges and Resilience
Every year is not without its own challenges. Our early concentration around a few customers left us subject to variability in those projects. Adding new customers both in number and size has reduced that dependency.
In 2024, we have successfully brought in new people, new processes, and new technologies into the Tekumo family. These additions will enable us to change how services are procured and delivered, effectively shaping the Future of Work.

Graham will head our efforts in Client, Employee, and Technician experience, including UX/UI, Training, Onboarding, Support, and Advocacy.

In 2024, we added key resources in multiple verticals in our organization, including, Derrick Youngblood (CRO), Wendi Greene (Director, Operations), Chad Parker (Director, Technical Solutions), and Tiffany McNeely (Service and Parts Delivery). These individuals collectively bring over 90+ years of knowledge and direct industry experience. Their skills have brought an immediate impact to their respective roles and we are excited about their continued impact for 2025 and beyond.
- Systems and Technology: Kicking off 2025 is a very exciting time for Tekumo. Our focus continues to be on efficiency, scalability, and profitability. As we deploy new automation in our service management platform, we will usher in a new era of managing field labor that can be leveraged in any technology and any environment. Leaders in this market, including ServiceNow (Ticker NOW), offer robust platforms that greatly benefit from the granularity of the Data and process our systems and software provide.
- Dramatically Expanding Our Market Reach: We plan to enter multiple new verticals and strengthen our presence in existing ones. These verticals include impacting The Future of Work by integrating internal and external resources, heavily utilizing AI in service delivery, leveraging Data at the Edge, harnessing Remote Power Generation, expanding Industrial IoT, and advancing Wi-Fi and Connectivity.
