What Certified Technical Experts does

Certified Technical Experts (CTE), Inc. is a privately held, SBA-certified 8(a) small disadvantaged business founded around 2010 in Montgomery, Alabama, now headquartered in Peachtree Corners, Georgia (Atlanta metropolitan area). The firm delivers enterprise IT, healthcare, technical, and media/marketing solutions almost exclusively to U.S. federal government customers, organized around three service pillars: Core Services (Cloud Solutions across Azure, AWS, and GCP; Data & Analytics; Information Assurance; Legacy System Modernization; Sustainment Services for Microsoft, Oracle, IBM, SAP, and SAS platforms); Technical Services (Strategic Management, System Architecture, Framework Integration, Custom Application Development, and Pearson VUE-authorized Certification Training/Testing); and Medical Solutions (Certified Healthcare Professionals staffing, Medical Office Management, and Medical Technology including proprietary MedCloud Pro and DrCloudEHR platforms).

CTE's revenue model is anchored in government contracting via multiple procurement vehicles: GSA 8(a) STARS III GWAC, GSA MAS IT Schedule 70, SeaPort Next Generation, and the FAA eFAST Master Ordering Agreement ($7.4B ceiling across 8 functional areas, awarded May 2022). The firm operates as both prime contractor and subcontractor alongside partners including Booz Allen Hamilton, Orion System Integrators, System Edge, and eSolution Architects. Service delivery is supported by ISO 9001:2015, ISO 27001:2013, ISO/IEC 20000-1, and CMMI-SVC Level 3 certifications, and includes work for DoD (Air Force BES with a $1.025B annual portfolio, SPAWAR/Navy LBS-AUV, DISA at Yokota, Army Cadet Command), federal civilian agencies (CDC, FEMA, HUD, FAA, DoDEA), and military healthcare facilities (Armed Forces Retirement Home). Leadership transitioned from founder-era CEO Eugene Tinker to Sunil Savili by 2025, with operations now spanning seven U.S. locations and international deployments across Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Caribbean.
