About Us
Our History
Our company has a long, robust history of solving problems and delivering value to our clients, which began when our founder Mr. Louis Gonzalez, identified a need to build high performing computer system to address data processing requirements for the Federal government. This need inspired entrepreneurial spirit in Mr. Gonzalez to establish TRI-COR Industries, in 1985, to help our customers succeed with technically superior, cost-effective information technology (IT) solutions.
Since then, TRI-COR Industries has earned a reputation for diligence, technical expertise, on-time performance, consistent cost controls, and ethical business practices. This success is a direct result of providing conducive environments that foster creativity, innovation and collaboration for engineering value-add IT solutions and delivering superior enterprise grade digital services.
We are excited to share our success stories, innovations and capabilities and explore how we might be able to partner with you in delivering business and mission enabling capabilities.
