People. Process. Product.
Done right.

Great organizations empower their best people to do their best work. That’s why for more than 20 years, Garnet River has been a relationship-oriented, conversation-first company built around multi-disciplinary practice groups. While people and process are defined and valued differently by different organizations, getting them right means everything to everyone…and we have the talent, experience, and technology platforms to help you do it.

Great organizations empower their best people to do their best work. That’s why for more than 20 years, Garnet River has been a relationship-oriented, conversation-first company built around multi-disciplinary practice groups. While people and process are defined and valued differently by different organizations, getting them right means everything to everyone…and we have the talent, experience, and technology platforms to help you do it.

Let’s go farther, together

Garnet River was first known as a UNIX engineering firm, with a Java development center. The expertise-based approach we developed over 20 years ago still drives all we do and deliver today—across an expanded platform of staffing, solutions, and products…powered by great people, proven processes, and innovative technology. Here are three reasons why we remain a great business partner.

RELIABLE

Founded in 2000—with a culture centered on “practical idealism”—we are privately held, stable, transparent, and financially strong.

AGILE

With a team of experienced specialists, 100+ employees, and 20 contractors, we provide on-demand services and support.

EFFECTIVE

Whether cutting costs and improving efficiency, ensuring security, or staffing with success, we offer a strong value proposition.

Multidisciplinary & Collaborative

Garnet River has three delivery channels: Business and IT Solutions, Staffing, and Products. What makes us unique is not the breadth of our expertise—though it’s unmatched in Upstate New York—but rather our culture of collaboration and ability to support any operational need a business or organization may have—whether it’s augmenting staff with highly qualified, vetted professionals; tapping into the knowledge of subject matter experts around strategy and growth; or leaning on talented business and development partners to bring a product idea to life.

  • Photo of students on computers highlights importance of safeguarding student data

Safeguarding student data in K-12 education is a matter of privacy and security–and trust

The importance of protecting student data in K-12 education cannot be overstated. Safeguarding student privacy not only ensures the integrity of educational institutions but also upholds the trust of students, parents, and the wider community. And these protective measures need to go beyond ticking off boxes on a mandated compliance check list. Why? Because information security is a journey, not a destination and therefor requires continuous attention and care.

Data analytics and business intelligence: The cornerstones of today’s businesses

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is dominating the headlines. Rightfully so, because what evolves from the introduction of Large Language Models (LLMs) like OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Google’s Bard will arguably be transformational and disruptive to how we work. However, lost in the buzz is the foundational role of data analytics and business intelligence to AI. Together, they remain the cornerstone of the modern business.

Workforce planning: What it is and why it matters

One of the great challenges for most businesses (and economies) is the dynamic that the most in-demand skills and high-growth occupations are the toughest to hire for. Workforce planning is a proactive approach to addressing this problem. By identifying an organization's current and future talent requirements, it can aligns talent needs with business objectives and laying a foundation for growth and long-term success.

What should I automate?

Oftentimes, the RPA proof of concept (PoC) process focuses on the following question: what should I automate to demonstrate value? And that's great. After all, that's the point of a PoC. However, value sometimes gets deprioritized in favor of ease and speed, which is a mistake. Because if you want to prove value, both ROI and impact need to be high. Easy is great...but only if effective.
