"Service
is our Best Product" |
On
January 2, 1979, Telephone Communications, Inc., d/b/a TCI and
TCI Wireless, began as a telephone interconnect company with humble
beginnings. Kenneth Bice, CEO and President of TCI, had a dream
of having his own company and providing top quality telephone
equipment and service to businesses.
Today, as a systems consulting, contracting, and services firm,
TCI is thriving with year after year increases in sales revenues
and maintains a high level of commitment to servicing its customers.
TCI has 17 employees, who work in its communications, security,
and IT consulting. In operating the day-to-day operations, Kenneth
and Fran (Corporate Secretary/Treasurer) have relied upon family
and other highly trusted people to run TCI. Barry Russell is the
Vice President and IT Manager of TCI. Jimmy Houston is the Technical
Supervisor, and Doris Dixon is the Office Manager.
In August 2006, TCI spun off its wireless divsion into a sister
company called Yello Wireless, which is the largest Sprint/Nextel
Authorized Representative in the State of Alabama. TCI still offers
wireless services through Yello Wireless. Tamara Reaves is Vice
President of the new Yello Wireless sister company to TCI.
The
key to TCI’s success will continue to be its service, and
its ability to adapt to market trends and dynamics. The management
of TCI foresees a further convergence of technologies in the market
place. Therefore, they believe that the integration of TCI’s
divisions and operations is vital. Each division works together
to provide integrated solutions to TCI’s customers. TCI
sees itself as the technology source for its customers’
needs – whether that need is a telephone or paging system,
a burglar or fire alarm system, a CCTV or access control system,
a computer or network system, or wireless phones and service.
