Core Office Interiors

What Core Office Interiors does

Core Office Interiors (COREoi) is a Texas-based office furniture and workplace solutions provider founded in 1985 and headquartered in San Antonio, with additional showroom locations in Austin and Houston. The company is a certified Service-Disabled, Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) with VetHUB and HUB certifications, led by CEO Nick Williams, a former U.S. Army Sergeant who served two tours in Afghanistan. COREoi serves corporate, federal government, state and local government, higher education, K-12, and healthcare clients across Texas, with named enterprise customers including Bazaarvoice, ERCOT, YETI, Sailpoint, Goodix, Rice University, and UT MD Anderson Cancer Center.

COREoi's offerings combine physical furniture products (seating, desking, storage and organization, systems furniture, architectural walls, acoustics, and conference and meeting solutions) with workplace technology (RFID asset management, AV design and integration, data and power implementation, space sensors and analytics, room and space booking, digital signage, smart glass and switchable film, sound masking, and wayfinding solutions) and professional services (architectural services, interior design, project management, and A&D resources). The technology stack includes proprietary project management software with service request timestamping and task analytics, a real-time client portal providing 24/7 project and accounting visibility, and an RFID asset management system with JSON RPC API integration into enterprise systems. The product portfolio is delivered through authorized dealer relationships with 70+ manufacturers led by Teknion, plus technology partners TEKVOX and Yulio for AV and VR visualization respectively.

The business operates a quote-based pricing model with volume discounts available through manufacturer partnerships, offers office furniture financing for Texas businesses, and engages clients through multi-year contracts. Revenue is generated across three streams: hardware sales (FF&T), professional services, and managed services. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales anchored by showroom visits, supported by A&D professional referrals and an extensive government contract vehicle portfolio including GSA Cooperative Purchasing, HealthTrust, Equalis Group, BuyBoard, UTSSCA, PCA, Austin ISD, and Vizient.

Direct peers

• Allsteel: Allsteel is a commercial office furniture manufacturer with a North American dealer network offering seating, desking, and systems furniture. Comparable to COREoi in serving enterprise office furniture buyers through a dealer model, though Allsteel operates nationally as a manufacturer rather than as a single regional dealer.
• Teknion: Teknion is a family-owned commercial office furniture manufacturer and one of COREoi's primary manufacturer partners. Highly comparable because Teknion's products (seating, desking, systems furniture, architectural interiors) form the core of COREoi's offering; however, Teknion operates as a manufacturer while COREoi operates as its authorized dealer in Texas.
• CORT: CORT is a national provider of furniture rental and workplace solutions serving corporate, government, and education clients. Comparable to COREoi in offering office furniture along with workspace services to enterprise and government buyers, though CORT's rental/leasing model and national scale differ from COREoi's dealer-led project model.
• Vari: Vari is a direct-to-consumer and B2B office furniture company offering desks, chairs, partitions, and office pods with a tech-forward brand. Comparable to COREoi in providing modern office furniture solutions with strong e-commerce and B2B channels, though Vari's distribution model is more digitally native and national rather than showroom- and dealer-led.

Broad incumbents

• Humanscale: Humanscale is a leading designer and manufacturer of ergonomic office furniture including self-adjusting seating, sit/stand desks, and monitor arms. Listed as one of COREoi's manufacturer partners; comparable in product category with a strong technology and ergonomics positioning, though Humanscale operates at the OEM level rather than as a dealer.
• MillerKnoll: MillerKnoll is the parent company of Herman Miller, Knoll, and other workplace brands, offering a comprehensive portfolio of office furniture and workplace solutions. Comparable to COREoi across contract furniture, systems furniture, and workplace strategy services, but at much larger scale and broader geographic reach.
• Haworth: Haworth is a global office furniture manufacturer and family-owned business with a broad dealer network. Overlaps with COREoi in commercial office seating, desking, and systems furniture; differentiated by its global manufacturing footprint and integrated workspace portfolio.
• Kimball International: Kimball International is a major commercial furnishings manufacturer serving Workplace, Health, and Hospitality segments and is one of COREoi's manufacturer partners. Comparable in product category (seating, desks, systems furniture, casegoods) but operates at the manufacturer level rather than as a regional dealer.
• Steelcase: Steelcase is the largest global office furniture manufacturer with an extensive North American dealer network. Comparable to COREoi as an enterprise office furniture and workplace solutions provider, though it operates at vastly greater scale and primarily as a manufacturer rather than dealer.
• HON Industries: HON Industries (The HON Company) is a major office furniture manufacturer offering seating, desking, storage, and workspace solutions. COREoi is an authorized HON dealer; comparable product breadth across office furniture categories, though HON operates as a manufacturer and brand owner rather than a regional dealer.
