Our Mission
Our mission is simple. Deliver an unparalleled level of service to our clients;
be well compensated for our efforts; and enjoy what we do each and every day.
So what does this "mission statement" mean? It means that we will turn
down work if it is not interesting or challenging. It means
we will turn down work if we cannot make a reasonable profit.
It means that we will not hire anyone, regardless of how technically
skilled they are, if they are not prepared to make client loyalty
their absolute top priority every single day.
Where Did Your Name Originate?
Black Oak Technology Group takes its name from the region in East Tennessee
orginally called Black Oak Ridge. This area was used for the construction
of the city of Oak Ridge, the "secret city" of World War II. Access to the city was
restricted to workers and residents with a pass and those that they permitted to
visit, frustrating salesmen and unwelcome relatives. Most workers
knew little of the city's purpose; they each performed their individual
task and were forbidden to talk with others about work. To limit leaks,
phone lines were tapped and mail subject to inspection. Famous scientists
working on the project -- as well as spies -- slipped in and out of
town under assumed identities.
Only when the bomb was dropped on Hiroshima did most Oak Ridgers
learn what their role had been in the war.
