GB Tech, Inc. was founded by the current
owners in 1985 to provide engineering and scientific services
to several large aerospace companies in Houston. However,
shortly thereafter, the Challenger tragedy occurred and
all aerospace work was put on hold. Instead, we focused
our attention on the small businesses in the community,
providing them custom applications for their PCs.
In 1989, NASA returned to space,
and GB Tech began to weave aerospace companies into its
client mix. Sales in 1989 totaled $100,000, and one year
later, exceeded $635,000. By 1994, our sales skyrocketed
to $20 million - a 2,900% increase in a four-year period.
As a result, we were named to the #41 position on Inc.
Magazine's list of fastest growing private companies in the United
States.
Today, our multi-million dollar company
boasts a technical talent pool of several hundred employees around
the country. While much of our contract work has been supplied
through the aerospace industry, we look forward to branching
out and applying our comprehensive array of core technical
services to numerous other business sectors, including construction,
energy, public safety, waste management and more.
