Tigerhawk Technologies was started in August 2005 with the sole purpose of providing top-notch I.T. services to local businesses.
Why the name Tigerhawk you ask? The name comes from our original senior partners. One, a graduate of the University of Missouri (Mizzou Tigers) and the other, a graduate of the University of Kansas (KU Jayhawks). Hawktiger didn’t roll off the tongue, so Tigerhawk it is.
Today Tigerhawk is solely owned by JR Bareis. We focuse on developing a close trusting relationship with our clients. We use proven solutions and a high level of standardization, so they can use the latest technological innovations to help them elevate their businesses.
