The Challenge
Clark Electric has been growing fast—recognized two years in a row as one of Tampa Bay’s 50 fastest-growing companies. But behind the scenes, their IT and cybersecurity were reactive, inconsistent, and handled in-house by a non-technical team member.
“We didn’t have any real IT or cybersecurity in place. We were relying on one of our staff members to help when something went wrong.” – Danny Clark, CEO
As their growth accelerated, so did the risk. They needed real infrastructure, real security, and a real partner.
The Solution
- Vine stepped in as a scaling and security partner, giving Clark Electric the foundation and support they needed to keep growing—without tech holding them back.
- Seamless transition: from internal management to fully managed IT & cybersecurity
- Security-first systems: real-time monitoring, threat prevention, and compliance alignment
- Cloud transformation: full support through their cloud-based ERP migration
- AI enablement: training and consulting to help them use AI as a daily tool
- Fast, proactive support: so the team stays focused and productive
- Scalable tech stack: built to grow with them, not slow them down
“Now problems get fixed fast. My team stays productive, and I don’t have to think about IT anymore.”
The Impact
With Vine, Clark Electric now operates on a secure, modern foundation that supports their explosive growth. They’ve stopped firefighting and started scaling—confident their systems are protected and their team supported.
“They’re responsive, they follow through, and they do what they say they’ll do.”
