| In 1987 James Bertino worked in a small start-up company in Boca Raton. This
company was on the leading edge of telephony technology. The company made
on-hold equipment and was introducing a new technology known as
auto-attendant/voice mail equipment to the south Florida market place. During
this time Mr. Bertino assembled, installed and maintained all equipment sold by
the company.
Mr. Bertino then began working as a diagnostics engineer at
Seagate, Inc., a
hard drive manufacturer. One of his positions at the company was to create a device that would test the drives automatically. When this project was completed Seagate laid off all
workers in the Delray office and re-opened in Taiwan using an unskilled labor
force and the newly create device.This is when the concept of CTC was
conceived by it's founder James Bertino in 1989.
After an elevator accident in 1990 involving the president of
Computer & Telephone Consultants, the company remained small. In the
beginning this was a matter of necessity but over time found that
staying small had its' advantages. Focusing on few clients and
staying with them gave us the uncanny ability to anticipate their needs. One
good aspect of remaining small is that it has allowed us to focus on our
clients.
Although CTC focuses on software development, clients
have grown to utilize all of the services offered such as maintenance of
their networks, support and installation of phone systems and networks.
Over sixty percent (60%) of CTC's clients have
been with us for seven years or more.
Our clientele is quite eclectic. They consist of companies in the following
