My Story

Why I founded Bobkat IT

I'm Bobby Fitzgerald. I run IT for a chemical manufacturing plant outside Houston. In that kind of environment, downtime doesn't mean an inconvenience; it means production stops. Ten years in, I've inherited more undocumented systems, brittle spreadsheets-pretending-to-be-databases, and "nobody remembers why we did it this way" infrastructure than I can count.

That experience led to a broader approach: understand the real operating problem, establish priorities, then build, modernize, or coordinate the right solution.

Bobkat IT brings that approach to other businesses. StackScore is the flagship Technology Assessment and proprietary platform that creates the baseline, recommendations, and roadmap. Bobkat IT can then execute appropriate work or coordinate trusted specialists.

What Makes Us Different

A clearer way to make technology decisions

Bobkat IT is built for leaders who want working software, accountable delivery, and straight answers instead of another product pitch.

Build, not just advise

Bobkat IT stays close to delivery. Recommendations remain connected to accountable implementation and measurable outcomes.

The right partners, not just my own hands

Bobkat IT coordinates trusted specialists when the work calls for additional depth while maintaining clear ownership of the outcome.

Built to last without me

Solutions are designed so the client team can operate them without unnecessary long-term dependency.

Better technology decisions, turned into things that actually get built.

Values

What guides every engagement

These principles shape how Bobkat IT builds the tools your business needs and keeps the rest of your technology running.

Practical Solutions

No unnecessary complexity. What I build stays right-sized to what your business can actually run and maintain.

Long-Term Partnerships

Technology should evolve with the business instead of resetting every time a vendor relationship changes.

Business First

Technology serves business goals, not the other way around. Outcomes come before tools.

Continuous Improvement

Small, consistent improvements create major results when they are sequenced and measured.

Outside the Office

Building, learning, and family

Outside of client work, I spend a lot of time building software, exploring new technologies, and continuing my education. Those skills feed directly into how StackScore and Bobkat IT engagements improve over time.

Away from the keyboard, I'm a husband and dad to three boys. That part of life keeps the work grounded: technology only matters when it helps real people do meaningful things with fewer headaches.

Next Step

Better technology decisions start with clarity and trust.
