WSB Computer Services

What WSB Computer Services does

WSB Computer Services, Inc. (WSBCS) is a privately held managed IT services and electronic recycling firm headquartered in Alamosa, Colorado, serving the San Luis Valley region of South Central Colorado. Founded in 1998 as a division of Wall, Smith, Bateman & Associates and now independently operated by owners John and Jenine Manesiotis, the company employs 19 people including 13 full-time technicians. Its service portfolio spans Business Phone Systems (VoIP and digital), Onsite & Remote Support, Network Services & Management (servers, firewalls, virtualization), Cloud Computing (Google Apps and Microsoft Office 365 integration), Cabling (copper and fiber), Wireless networking, and Surveillance & CCTV. Distribution is direct via walk-in office and onsite field service across a small regional geography.

WSB's distinct secondary business line is WSB e-Recyclers, LLC, a wholly-owned electronic recycling subsidiary launched in October 2012 with Blue Star Recyclers licensing support, Blue Peaks Developmental Services vocational partnership, City of Alamosa startup financing, and a Colorado state RREO grant. The recycling facility accepts a wide range of electronics at published per-pound and per-item rates (e.g., $0.95/lb for general electronics, $55 for TVs, $8 for hard drive shredding) and offers onsite pickup services, processing over 160,000 lbs of e-waste since inception.

Revenue is generated through a mix of recurring IT service contracts, one-time hardware/software sales (Dell, Lenovo, HP servers; SonicWall, Cisco firewalls), transaction-fee recycling services, professional services (cabling, installations), and subscription-based cloud and VoIP offerings. The go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven, targeting SMBs, government entities (notably the City of Alamosa), educational institutions, and individual consumers in the San Luis Valley. Channel mix relies on the company website, direct phone/email contact, community partnerships, and a remote support portal. There is no external institutional investment, no acquisitions, and no disclosed expansion beyond the South Central Colorado market.

Direct peers

• Blue Star Recyclers: Colorado Springs-based electronic recycler with a disability-employment vocational model. Direct strategic partner of WSB that taught its recycling model and manages downstream processing — the most operationally comparable peer given the shared model.

Broad incumbents

• Sims Lifecycle Services: Global IT asset disposition leader offering enterprise-scale e-recycling, data destruction, and reverse logistics. Comparable because it competes for the same recycling and certified data destruction workloads, but at vastly greater scale.
• Iron Mountain: Global data management and secure IT asset disposition company offering certified data destruction, e-recycling, and records management. Comparable on hard-drive shredding and secure end-of-life IT services.
• ERI (Electronic Recyclers International): Large US e-waste recycler with R2v3 and e-Stewards certifications serving enterprise, government, and consumer markets. Comparable on the recycling and data destruction service lines, but operates nationwide facilities versus WSB's single spoke location.
• Dataprise: Mid-Atlantic managed IT services and cybersecurity provider. Comparable on managed IT, cloud, networking, and helpdesk support offerings that mirror WSB's core IT portfolio.
• Ntiva: Regional managed IT services provider covering cloud, cybersecurity, networking, and VoIP. Comparable on the IT services portfolio that forms WSB's primary business, though Ntiva serves larger metro markets.

Emerging players

• RetroFit Technologies: IT asset disposition and electronics refurbishment company specializing in enterprise hardware recycling. Comparable on the server/storage/networking recycling value chain that WSB e-Recyclers addresses.
• GreenDisk: Small e-waste recycling and refurbished computer reseller. Comparable as a niche recycler serving consumer and small-business clients with similar per-pound and per-item fee structures.
• PC Survivors: Small-batch IT asset disposition and e-recycling company. Comparable as a regional electronics recycler with similar service offerings to WSB e-Recyclers.

Regional players
