NaviTEK

What NaviTEK does

NaviTek, Inc. (NaviTEK) is a privately held, founder-operated IT consulting firm headquartered in Cary, North Carolina, that acts as a vendor-agnostic intermediary between SMB clients and a large network of technology service providers. The firm was established to commercialize nearly two decades of combined telecom-technology experience held by its founder and owner, Chris Huey, who also serves as vCTO. Its stated mission is to help small and medium businesses navigate overwhelming choices among emerging cloud, network, voice, and AI solutions, recommending best-fit providers from a partner ecosystem that spans AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, VMware Velocloud, Aryaka, Comcast Business, Verizon, AT&T, Ring Central, 8x8, Conversica, Rackspace, and roughly two dozen additional vendors.

The firm's product surface is organized into four service categories: Cloud Services (including managed public cloud, Direct Connect to hyperscalers, colocation, DRaaS, hosted PBX, UCaaS, and SaaS applications); AI Lead Management (lead generation, lead management, sales assistance, and sales automation, delivered via a Conversica partnership); Data and Network Services (cable, DSL, fiber, satellite, SD-WAN, MPLS, DIA, VPLS, and global WAN); and Voice Services (hosted VoIP, SIP, conferencing, contact center, local/long-distance, and wireless). Rather than developing its own software, NaviTEK curates, recommends, and implements third-party offerings through its partner channels.

The business model is sales-led, with quote-based pricing tailored per engagement and multi-year contracts; revenue derives from consulting/advisory fees and pass-through or referral economics on the underlying technology services. The go-to-market relies on direct outreach, the company website, and referrals rather than paid marketing, and the firm has surfaced only a handful of named customer relationships (e.g., The Judge Group, Medical Revenue Associates, AFC Fitness) via its testimonials. The company is privately held, is not publicly listed, and discloses no funding rounds, M&A activity, or headcount above the 1-10 employee band.

Direct peers

• MicroCorp: Master agency and telecom/UCaaS distributor connecting agents with carriers and cloud providers. Direct competitor to NaviTek in the SMB/mid-market telecom advisory channel, serving a similar intermediary role.
• Vology: Managed IT services provider focused on SMB/mid-market with cybersecurity, cloud, and network offerings. Adjacent rather than pure advisory, but competes for the same customer's IT budget and decision-maker.
• Sandler Partners: Master agency offering telecom, cloud, UCaaS, and managed services through a national agent network. Closely comparable to NaviTek's advisory and resale model across the same hyperscaler/carrier ecosystem.
• Bridgepointe Technologies: Technology advisory firm helping mid-market and enterprise clients select and manage telecom, UCaaS, SD-WAN, and cloud providers. Comparable vendor-agnostic advisory model and similar SMB/mid-market focus.
• AppSmart (AppDirect): Marketplace and advisory platform aggregating cloud, voice, and connectivity services for SMBs and the channel. Competes with NaviTek by serving SMB buyers directly through a software-led advisor experience.
• Intelisys: Master agent/distributor for cloud and telecom services, owned by ScanSource. Competes with NaviTek by enabling agents to sell carrier, UCaaS, SD-WAN, and cloud services to SMB and mid-market customers.
• Telecom Brokerage Inc (TBI): Master agency selling telecom, UCaaS, and cloud solutions through a network of sub-agents to SMB customers. Closely aligned with NaviTek's go-to-market of intermediating SMB buyers to carrier/cloud vendors.
• Avant (now ConvergeOne): National master agency/distributor for cloud, connectivity, and UCaaS solutions targeting SMB and mid-market. Same vendor-agnostic, partner-broad strategy as NaviTek with deeper resources.
• TeleChoice (TCG): Telecom and IT consulting firm advising mid-market and enterprise on carrier services, UCaaS, and cloud connectivity. Comparable vendor-agnostic advisory model, slightly larger scale than NaviTek.

Others

• Channel Partners / TCG Advisory: Industry media and event organizer for the telecom/IT agent channel. Not a direct competitor, but the primary ecosystem/community where NaviTek's peers (master agents, sub-agents) recruit and transact.
