Sparkhound was established in 1998 by Shawn Usher with one goal in mind: make an impact on client organizations by redefining how companies use technology to solve business challenges. Originally focused on servicing small to mid-sized businesses, Sparkhound quickly established core competencies that have benefited numerous enterprise-level, high-profile clients — yet, we remain fiercely committed to meeting the needs of every client, regardless of size, with the same high standards of service.

 

After operating from our Baton Rouge headquarters for 11 years, we established a Houston office in 2009 to deliver Sparkhound’s proven benefits to the Texas business marketplace. In 2011, we opened a third location to accommodate rapid company growth and new client relationships in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.

 

Today, our forward-thinking approach and service focus continue to benefit our clients and earn industry recognition. In July 2012, Sparkhound was named the Microsoft Central Region 2012 “South Central Partner of the Year” and received the 2012 Central Region Partner “Customer Loyalty and Satisfaction” Award at the Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference in Toronto.

 

Why “Sparkhound”? Simple. Because it’s how we help our clients achieve success. To us, the “spark” symbolizes ideas — innovative ways businesses can use technology to accomplish their goals. Inspired by the beloved bloodhound, “hound” represents our quest to find the most efficient, powerful ways to execute those ideas. Together, the “Sparkhound” is all about strong ideas and decisive action. Without one or the other, it’s just not a Sparkhound solution.
