Mission

The ForceLight Group was founded on the principle of helping companies to drive down IT costs. IT purchases are some of the most negotiable transactions that a company will make. From spending their entire careers sitting on the other side of the table in sales roles, our advisors know how companies often leave money on the table by not effectively negotiating with vendors.

With our negotiating experience and knowledge base of products and pricing structures, we help guide negotiations toward more competitive pricing. Our goal is to help clients reach the best pricing and value available.

our team

ForceLight Group is comprised of client advisors that bring experience gained while working in sales, procurement, and IT roles for different global fortune 500 IT companies.

Collectively, our resources have seen and helped negotiate hundreds of deals involving various technology vendors. Through this experience we have compiled a considerable knowledge base which enables us to rapidly identify opportunities for additional cost savings.
