The founder.
When she founded TEK Consulting nearly 20 years ago, Tricia Knight wasn’t sure where the telecom industry was headed. Nor did she anticipate its exponential growth. As the industry has continued to evolve, so has her company. Looking back now, she admits to wondering whether it could continue at the same pace. "We've just kept modifying and growing,” she says, “so this has been a really good place for me."
The vision.
Tricia Knight had a knack for cultivating key relationships and navigating complex processes, and that turned out to be a winning ticket. For the last 12 years, TEK Consulting has been helping us with permitting and licensing requirements as we work to expand wireless connectivity in jurisdictions up and down the west coast. It’s allowed us to deploy critical infrastructure quickly, while supporting TEK Consulting’s continued growth and success.
Tricia Knight Founder“As an independent contractor, it’s the peace of mind that comes with having a good working relationship.”
Our partnership.
TEK Consulting supports our work on the west coast and manages a substantial workload—touching nearly every aspect of the deployment process.
- When a need for new infrastructure is identified, Tricia and her team help us find and vet potential sites.
- Whether it’s a small cell deployment or tower modification, once a project has been approved, TEK Consulting helps us secure permits, navigate public hearings and appeals and ultimately ensure project success.
- The strong working relationship with TEK Consulting has been mutually beneficial to both companies—helping us to continue building infrastructure while being a foundation for TEK Consulting’s own growth.
