People often ask what
SCS stands for.

The answer goes back to the 90s.

When Chris Pelon started the company, the primary focus was computer support for local businesses. At the time, he also enjoyed mountain biking, and his favorite bike brand was Specialized. That inspiration led to the original name: Specialized Computer Solutions.

Nearly three decades later, we've grown far beyond supporting computers. Today, we help businesses with managed IT, cybersecurity, software development, cloud infrastructure, websites, and AI solutions.

The business evolved.
The initials stayed.

Today, we're simply known as SCS.
