Caliber Solutions

What Caliber Solutions does

Caliber Solutions is an IT strategy and procurement consulting firm headquartered in Spring, Texas, that partners with middle-market to Fortune 50 organizations to optimize technology spending, vendor relationships, and infrastructure decisions. The company positions itself as a vendor-agnostic alternative to traditional IT consultancies, offering engagement-based advisory services built around four pillars: resource augmentation, investment optimization, waste elimination, and disruptive procurement methodologies. Its founders, including CEO Chris Gamble, have stated that the firm was created specifically to challenge what they describe as inefficiencies in the traditional IT sector.

The company's service portfolio spans nine offerings: Network/Connectivity, Network Edge, Cloud, Cybersecurity, Customer Experience (CX/UX), Application Optimization, Business Intelligence Optimization, Professional Services, and OT Services. Underpinning these services is a proprietary client portal called Calibrate, which provides real-time monitoring of vendor relationships, application stack performance, and OT infrastructure. The firm operates within the Caliber Holdings family alongside affiliated entities including noVAR, OSI, XCV Partners, cavalry.solutions, and vendorsphere.ai, allowing it to deliver procurement, maintenance, cloud, and adjacent capabilities through a coordinated ecosystem.

Caliber generates revenue through professional services engagements, operating on a custom, multi-year contract basis with no publicly disclosed pricing. Its go-to-market is sales-led, driven by direct enterprise outreach, inbound consultation requests, and referral-based growth from channel partners. The customer base spans healthcare (notably Texas Children's Hospital), energy and oil & gas (Sunoco, LyondellBasell), financial services (Woodforest National Bank), and distribution/logistics, with case studies documenting multi-million dollar client-side savings outcomes including a 25% reduction in IT costs, $2 million in contract savings from a document management transformation, and 80% cloud storage cost reductions versus hyperscalers through Titan Cloud Storage partnership.
