Chris France Consulting was formed January 4, 2010 as a woman-owned IT Consulting and Infrastructure Services firm focused on clients in the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry. Lisa, an educator, sees the need for fast, affordable, and easy to use information technology. Chris, an IT executive, implements this vision. We serve the needs of organizations both small and large—either single enterprises or divisions within a larger enterprise. Our clients have big technology decisions to make that can be very costly and have impact many years into their future. They also have a constantly changing IT infrastructure to manage. They need an advocate that can negotiate in their best interest; they need the cutting edge ideas that will make their technology better, faster, and cheaper. They need a trusted partner and that partner is Chris France Consulting.Chris France Consulting has a purely business focused approach to IT. It is not about cool, blinking lights—it is about achieving your organization's ideas, whether they be public service or for-profit, with just enough technology and no more than needed. For over two decades, Chris has worked at IBM, Bank of America, a small IT consulting firm, and as the CIO at Charlotte's premier design firm, Little Diversified Architectural Consulting. While implementing business strategy, he has led, designed, built, broke, operated, and decommissioned just about every technology invented from mainframes, midranges, client server, internet, and cloud computing. We are technology agnostic and buy/sell whatever technology best serves the needs of our clients.
