Why We Don't Compete with Integrators: Our Partnership Approach

In an industry where consultants often become competitors, Stonos Solutions takes a different approach: we deliberately don't compete with integrators. We partner to enhance your capabilities and drive your success.

The Traditional Problem

Many consultants: - Provide design then bid installation themselves - Learn client relationships then contact directly - Position as integrator alternatives - Create conflicts of interest

Result: Integrators hesitate to engage consultants.

Our Commitment

We will NEVER: - Bid installation projects - Sell products or systems - Contact your clients directly - Compete for your projects

We ONLY: - Support YOUR success - Enhance YOUR client relationships - Strengthen YOUR capabilities - Help YOU win and deliver

Why This Works

True Partnership: You're adding expertise to YOUR team, not a competitor

No Conflicts: Revenue only from consulting, never products/installations/poaching

Knowledge Transfer: We teach while we do, building your capabilities

Flexibility: Engage when and how you need—no forced commitments

How We Support

Specialized Expertise: Physical security, cybersecurity, ConnectWise, APIs

Resource Augmentation: Post-award support, peak season help, specialized skills

Behind-the-Scenes: White-label services, support without client-facing role
