TGS has a 22,000 square foot facility in Kansas City where we carry out logistics and staging for projects, reducing the complexity of deploying projects in the field. This facility enables us to take on larger advanced projects than companies of our size typically can handle. We provide services for the entire solution lifecycle from design and architecture through to deployment and support. 

As a business founded and owned by an African American woman, we are a diverse supplier for many of our customers. 

TGS is honored to serve as the technology partner for the Kansas City Chiefs, providing the team with all their technology and collaborating with them on charitable work in the local community.

“TGS has been an ideal partner for the Kansas City Chiefs, helping us meet the stringent demands of our IT technology and cybersecurity needs. TGS has also expanded its relationship with us through their SHIPs program, bringing students from local schools in underserved communities to GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium to showcase career opportunities in the field of IT as it relates to technology in sports, entertainment, and large public venues. Lenora Payne and the team at TGS have been amazing to work with on these efforts.”

–Kevin Higgins, VP of IT, CISO, Kansas City Chiefs

–Bill Nixon, Chief Information Officer, Johnson County Government
