Columbus, Ohio — Since 1990

We don't just advise.
We deliver.

Systems Integration Specialists is a 100% employee-owned technology consulting firm. We help retail and Warehouse Operations teams operate smarter, move faster, and deliver with confidence.

Our Story

Operators who consult.
Not consultants who theorize.

We are a trusted technology consulting partner helping retail and Warehouse Operations teams thrive through practical, tailored solutions. We build lasting partnerships and drive sustainable growth by aligning IT strategies with business goals.

Our consultants average over 15 years of relevant experience. They've run the warehouses, managed the platforms, and led the programs they now consult on. We don't hand off a plan — we embed with your teams and own the delivery from kickoff through post-go-live stabilization.

As a 100% employee-owned firm, every consultant has a personal stake in your project's success. That means deeper commitment, tighter accountability, and follow-through that outlasts the statement of work.

Employee-Owned

Since transition

Employee Ownership

When consultants own the company,
they own the outcome.

SIS is 100% employee-owned and operated. This isn't a tagline — it's a structural advantage. Every consultant who walks into your program has a personal financial stake in making it succeed.

Accountability Beyond the SOW

Every consultant owns their outcomes personally — not just contractually. Employee-owners don't cut corners.

Continuity Across Engagements

Our people stay invested in your success long after go-live. Ownership creates long-term thinking.

Aligned Incentives

When we succeed together, everyone at SIS shares in that success. No misaligned priorities.

Deeper Commitment

Employee-owners protect the relationship, plan for the long term, and deliver like their name is on it — because it is.
