About CBT

Mission Statement

CBT is a premier, woman-owned Domain Expert Integrator breaking the mold of traditional technology solution design. Our digital transformation strategies bridge the gap between information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT) to provide business outcomes beneficial across the entirety of an organization. From the CIO to the COO, to Digital Transformation Leadership and everyone in between, we deliver solutions that unite these unique business cultures for collective success in today’s data-driven economy.

At CBT, we take our tagline to heart, to deliver Technology with a Human Touch. We put people at the center of our processes, products, and technology solutions. With the focus areas of Internet of Things (IoT), IT/OT Convergence, and High-Performance Computing (HPC) & Analytics we’re ready to take your innovation initiatives from ideas to execution.
