Your Campus Runs on Communication. Make It Count.
You've sat through the demos. You've heard the promises. You just want the right solution, at the right price, without the runaround. That's what we do.
Built for How Higher Ed Actually Works
You are navigating shared governance, shrinking budgets, and a phone system that should have been replaced five years ago. Every vendor says they understand higher ed. Most of them do not. We have spent 22+ years working inside this world. We know what cooperative contracts you can leverage, how long approvals actually take, and why the last project stalled. With access to 200+ suppliers and zero sales quota, we find what fits your campus, your budget, and your timeline.
See What Sets Us Apart →The Challenges You Deal With Every Day
- 01 "Our phone system is from another era. Parts are discontinued. Support calls go nowhere."
- 02 "Half our staff works hybrid now. Our system still assumes everyone is sitting at a desk on campus."
- 03 "We sat through five vendor demos. Every slide deck looked the same. We still have no idea who to pick."
- 04 "My team is already underwater. Nobody has bandwidth to run an RFP and a rollout at the same time."
- 05 "We know we are not E911 compliant. Twelve buildings, three campuses. It keeps us up at night."
Sound Familiar?
None of This Is Your Fault
This is what happens when budgets get cut, priorities shift, and vendors treat you like a quota number. You are not behind. You just need a partner who actually knows this space. A 30-minute call with our team will give you clarity on your options and a realistic next step.

Less vendor juggling. Less guesswork. More of your time back. Here is what changes when we step in.
Supplier-Neutral Guidance
We work with 200+ suppliers and have zero incentive to push any of them. The right fit for your campus is the only answer we are looking for.
Procurement Made Simple
Chancellor's Office agreements, CMAS, NASPO ValuePoint, OMNIA Partners. We know which contract vehicle saves you time and when you can skip the full RFP entirely.
E911 and Compliance
Kari's Law. RAY BAUM's Act. We bake compliance into every implementation from day one. On a multi-building campus, getting this wrong is not an option.
End-to-End Coordination
Number porting, call flow design, cutover planning, go-live. Our Operations Team owns the heavy lifting so your IT staff can keep the lights on.
One Point of Contact
No more chasing three different vendor reps for answers. You get one person who knows your campus, your contract, and your timeline.
Long-Term Partnership
Most vendors vanish after go-live. We do not. Escalations, renewals, system changes. We are still in your corner years from now.
Requirements You Cannot Afford to Miss
E911 compliance is not a checkbox you address at the end of an implementation. For campuses with dozens of buildings and thousands of users, we build it in from day one so your institution is protected and your students and staff are safe.
Kari's Law
Requires multi-line phone systems to allow direct 911 dialing without a prefix and send a notification to building staff when a 911 call is made. Applies to on-premise systems and many cloud configurations across every campus building.
RAY BAUM's Act
Requires that the dispatchable location, meaning the specific floor, wing, or room, be transmitted with every 911 call. Critical for large campuses, multi-building institutions, and organizations with remote or hybrid staff.
From First Call to Go-Live And Beyond
No mystery. No surprises halfway through. Here is exactly what happens after you reach out.
We Listen First
We learn what you have today, what is broken, and what your procurement path looks like. No assumptions. No generic playbook.
We Show You Real Options
We shortlist suppliers that genuinely fit and give you a clear comparison with real trade-offs. Plain language, not a pitch deck.
We Handle Procurement
Chancellor's Office agreement, CMAS, NASPO, or a full RFP. We navigate the paperwork and the back-and-forth so your team does not have to.
We Run the Rollout
Number porting, call flows, cutover scheduling, go-live support. Our Operations Team leads across every campus and building.
We Stick Around
This is where most vendors ghost you. We do not. Escalations, changes, renewals. Your dedicated team stays with you for the long run.

Legacy System to Zoom Phone in 6 Weeks
SBCC needed to replace a phone system from the early '90s. Maverick managed the evaluation, helped select Zoom Phone through the Chancellor's Office agreement, and coordinated the deployment. Physical phones dropped from over 1,000 to about 400, backend programming was eliminated, and the transition completed in roughly 6 weeks.
"They did a lot of work for us. I couldn't have done it without them."
