History
Established in 2002.
The Fulcrum Group was founded in Keller, Texas by Steve Meek and David Johnson to help organizations get more value from technology through stronger relationships, better guidance, and practical support. The name “Fulcrum” comes from the pivot point of a lever: a small point of leverage that can create meaningful movement.
That idea still guides the company today. We believe technology should not just be maintained. It should be used as leverage to reduce risk, improve productivity, support innovation, and help leaders make better business decisions. Over the years, Fulcrum has grown from a North Texas network support company into a Texas-owned managed IT, cybersecurity, Microsoft 365, cloud, VoIP, automation, and AI strategy partner for DFW organizations.
Our STARPower process, STARLight visibility, and STARMap roadmaps were created to help clients move from reactive IT decisions to clearer priorities, better budgeting, stronger cybersecurity, and smarter long-term planning.
