Bring IT Home to Palisade: Choose TechnologyWest for Local, Reliable IT Support! As a resident deeply invested in the prosperity of our local community, I feel the need to share a personal story that underscores the importance of supporting local businesses.
Many of us remember the beginnings of COVID 19 and the effect it had on our business community. TechnologyWest at that time was a startup IT company working with local government agencies in improving IT infrastructure and cybersecurity.
The City of Grand Junction purchased their new phone system from our company utilizing a government contract meeting a competitve procurement process saving them over $250,000 over the lifetime of the contract and providing them with a new state of the art phone system. The City of Grand Junction also believed in supporting local business.
That was over 4 years ago. Today TechnologyWest has grown and now serves over 20 government agencies, providing IT services and products utilizing discounted government contract vehicles and grants including $5,000,000 in grant programs the Colorado Secretary of State Election Security has offered over the past several years to strengthen our elections throughout the state.
When the Town of Palisade chooses to “Buy Local”, we’re not just procuring needed services — we’re circulating money back into our community, supporting the creation of jobs and helping to fund essential infrastructure like schools, roads, and parks.
With this in mind, I urge you to have the Town of Palisade Trustees consider our locally owned IT company, TechnologyWest, as the town’s IT service provider.
Specializing in serving government agencies specifically in Western Colorado, we are well-equipped to meet and exceed the unique technology needs our town demands.
By choosing TechnologyWest, the benefits extend beyond quality service. According to the Small Business Administration, when we spend our tax dollars locally, 68% of that expenditure stays within our community.This not only ensures that we have the infrastructure necessary to support our growing town, but also empowers us to create a sustainable, thriving local economy.
Select TechnologyWest as the Town of Palisade’s new IT vendor—support a locally owned company that strives to contribute to our local economy and community. Please, sign this petition today to urge the Town of Palisade to prioritize ‘Buy Local’ policies that make a significant and lasting impact on our wonderful community.

Subject: Support for TechnologyWest as Palisade’s Local IT Support Provider
Dear Members of the Palisade Board of Trustees,
I am reaching out as a resident and invested member of the Palisade community to advocate for the consideration of TechnologyWest as our local IT support provider. I believe that choosing a local company for our town’s IT needs would greatly benefit both our community and its infrastructure.
Currently, the town relies on an out-of-state provider. Shifting to a local vendor like TechnologyWest offers not only enhanced accessibility but also an opportunity to reinvest our tax dollars within our community. When we spend locally, we circulate funds back into Palisade, supporting job creation and providing essential resources for our schools, roads, and public spaces.
TechnologyWest specializes in serving government agencies throughout Western Colorado, making them uniquely suited to address the specific IT requirements our town demands. They are fully equipped to offer secure, reliable, and responsive support tailored to Palisade’s needs.
Moreover, studies show that when communities “Buy Local,” 68% of every dollar remains within the local economy. By choosing TechnologyWest, we not only ensure top-notch IT services but also bolster our local economy, contributing to a sustainable, thriving community.
I urge you to consider the advantages of selecting TechnologyWest as our town’s IT vendor and to prioritize local service providers that bring lasting value to Palisade.
Thank you for your time and consideration. I hope to see our community grow stronger through thoughtful decisions like this one.
Warm regards,
