COMMUNITY-CENTERED TECHNOLOGY, BUILT TO LAST

BBT Connects is a community-rooted technology organization focused on strengthening connectivity, security, and long-term capacity.

We help communities move forward responsibly—using technology as infrastructure, not complexity that overwhelms.

Who We Are

We work with federal, state, and local government entities, as well as organizations responsible for essential services, community outcomes, and long-term continuity.

Essential services include the systems people depend on every day—for safety, care, access, and community well-being.

Our role is not to sell technology, but to help leaders make sound, responsible decisions about systems their communities rely on.

  • Our work follows The BBT Framework, a practical, community-centered approach that prioritizes:

    • stability before expansion

    • thoughtful planning over urgency

    • sustainability over short-term wins

    This framework guides every engagement—from infrastructure planning to community programs.

  • Integrity — transparency and accountability
    Community-Centered — designed with, not for
    Responsibility & Stewardship — long-term view
    Learning & Adaptation — growth alongside communities

  • Technology only works when people can actually use it.

    That belief shows up through:

    • long-term partnerships

    • community-centered planning

    • workforce and digital confidence programs

    • spaces like Connects Collab, where access and opportunity meet

BBT Connects is not a vendor selling off-the-shelf solutions.


We partner with leaders to design systems communities can rely on—carefully, deliberately, and for the long term.

Who You’ll Work With

Behind everything we do is a team of people who truly care. We bring our full selves to the table—open-minded, collaborative, and ready to make something great.
