Our Story
TMC was founded in 1987 and quickly became a industry-leading technology consulting firm in Minnesota. During the early days of TMC, we worked with most of the big names in Minneapolis and began expanding into other states. In the early 2000s, TMC opened up services for IT, AV, Communications and Security (Division 25, 27 & 28) Design and became a full service technology consulting and design firm.
Since then, we have advised on and designed sophisticated converged technology infrastructures for airports, sports stadiums, hospitals, government facilities, Fortune 500 companies, K-12 school districts and higher education colleges/universities.
Our team of consultants and designers are among the most experienced and highly qualified in our industry. Whether they’re supporting you from our Minnesota headquarters, one of our many offices across the U.S., our team’s first priority is making sure your technology meets your goals.
