History of Turn-Key Network Solutions, Inc.

Turn-Key Network Solutions, Inc. was formed in 2000 as a telecommunications contractor with headquarters in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

The concept behind Turn-Key was simple – to provide a “Turn-Key” solution for our customers telecommunications needs. Instead of having to contract with multiple vendors, Turn-key would handle all aspects of the job.

This approach was cemented in 2001 with the onset of our relationship with SBC for Central Office engineering and installation through our “Cluster” contract.  Our relationship continues with AT&T.

Our reach expanded in 2002 when we opened a second office in Muncie, IN which supported our operations in Indiana and Ohio.

In 2003 we opened our office in Detroit, MI to support the many projects and on-going work in that area.

As our reputation grew so did the demand for our services. In 2006, we moved our Indiana operations from Muncie to Indianapolis.  This allowed us to be more centrally located and offer better coverage for our clients.

We continue to look for more opportunities to add to our "Turn-key" approach for our clients, so in 2006 we became a Cisco Advanced Technology Partner.  This enabled us to provide Cisco equipment directly to our client base.  We have expanded our equipment partnerships to include MRV in 2007. 

And in 2007, we opened our office outside of Chicago to support our Illinois and Wisconsin clients.

In our eight years in business we have been involved in many exciting and important projects including the engineering and installation of the Ford Motor Company’s “Dearborn Fiber Network” which today ties over 45 Ford building together with a private fiber network spanning Dearborn and Allen Park. We have also been very involved in the construction of State-wide fiber networks for both Verizon Wireless and Cingular Wireless.
