Garland Fox was founded by two longtime friends who came from opposite sides of the table—but shared a common goal: solving complex problems through a deeper understanding of users, workflows, and productivity.
Steve Thomsen built his career in the vendor space, working with innovative Israeli startups to bring cutting-edge solutions to market. Todd Thomas, on the other hand, served as a technology leader within the healthcare provider sector, holding C- and VP-level roles where he directly faced the challenges healthcare organizations grapple with every day.
Their paths crossed in exactly this dynamic—vendor and client—and what began as a professional engagement grew into a lasting friendship. Along the way, they collaborated to tackle some of the industry's most demanding problems—not by chasing trends, but by focusing on what actually moves the needle: user experience, operational efficiency, and real-world outcomes.
At Garland Fox, we believe the best partners don't just understand IT—they understand your business. Too often, vendors are narrowly focused on their own technology stack, with little appreciation for the practical realities you face: cross-functional workflows, end-user adoption, regulatory pressure, and cost constraints.
We’re different. We combine technical depth with business empathy, helping clients navigate complexity through a lens of productivity and purpose. Whether it’s modernizing infrastructure, enhancing cybersecurity, or driving digital transformation, Garland Fox approaches every engagement with one question in mind:
What will make your business run smarter, safer, and stronger—today and tomorrow?
