Meet the People Behind the Uptime.

This is Cassidy, PTI's Account Manager.

If you've worked with PTI, there's a good chance you've worked with Cassidy.

As Tim's right hand, she's often the first person helping clients navigate UPS systems, batteries, and backup power solutions. Whether it's a single-phase UPS for a network closet or a three-phase power system supporting critical operations, Cassidy helps connect clients with the right solutions for their environment.

But her impact extends beyond our clients.

Cassidy is actively involved in the local technology community through organizations like the Omaha IT Council (OITC) and is always looking for ways to get the PTI team involved. From community events to volunteer opportunities, she's constantly finding ways to strengthen connections both inside and outside the office.

Giving back to the communities we serve is important to us.

Last week, Cassidy, Jeff, Chrissy, and Malia (Chrissy's daughter) spent the day volunteering at Food Bank for the Heartland, helping scoop, package, seal, and box hamburger meat for families in need.

We love seeing our team get involved, and even more when family members join us in making a difference.

Food Bank for the Heartland serves 93 counties across Nebraska and Iowa, helping provide meals and support to individuals and families facing food insecurity.

This marks our second year volunteering with this incredible organization, and we're proud to play a small role in helping fight hunger right here in our community.

A big thank you to Food Bank for the Heartland for the work they do every day and to our team for being so awesome.

⚡ The Harry, Hermione, and Ron of backup power.

Individually? Useful.
Together? They save the entire system.

Your UPS, batteries, and generator work the same way.
✅️ One handles the immediate response.
✅️ One carries the load.
✅️ One keeps everything running long term.

Because when the power grid starts acting like Voldemort… you don’t want only one layer of protection.

Data center backup power systems are critical for maintaining operations during power grid failures. Learn about three standard options.

Power issues don’t have to be full outages to create problems. Voltage dips, fluctuations, and short disturbances can still take systems down if there’s no UPS protection in place.

And this applies to more than just large data centers.

🔌 Small medical offices.
🔌 Gas stations.
🔌 Corporate offices.
🔌 Retail environments.

Downtime matters, beuase every second your servers are down, that is time you're not running your business (and that means you're losing money).

UPS power prevents downtime. It matters.

Voltage ride-through helps data centers withstand power disturbances, ensuring resilience and minimizing downtime in an unstable energy landscape.

We love seeing innovation like this happening right here in Nebraska.

As AI and data center growth continue accelerating, energy efficiency is becoming one of the biggest conversations in the industry — especially around power infrastructure and how facilities handle increasing demand.

We’ve been saying for years that power availability and efficiency are quickly becoming limiting factors in data center growth. That’s why research like this from UNL is exciting to see.

Anonymous warehouses hum with the computations that power artificial intelligence, but an invisible problem is growing louder: the increasingly large volume of energy they require. Husker researcher Jun Wang is working to create a solution with wide-ranging positive impacts for those businesses and....

Meet the People Behind the Uptime, Aaron Gonzales, one of PTI’s Integration Technicians.

If there’s a battery issue, monitoring problem, or something in the data center just “doesn’t seem right” — Aaron’s the guy you want walking through the door.

He installs, services, and troubleshoots battery systems and battery monitoring for our clients, helping turn confusing problems into real solutions.

Call him PTI’s version of Elvis.
🎙️ Cool under pressure.
🎙️Shows up when things get serious.
🎙️And knows how to handle the situation.

In critical environments, experience matters. Because when systems start acting up, uptime depends on having the right people in the room.

We all like to max things out.

💪 Max weight at the gym.
💪 Max coffee size.
💪 Max efficiency.

But your UPS? That’s one thing you don’t want to max.

We see it all the time — systems running close to capacity because everything “looks fine.” Until it isn’t. UPS systems aren’t designed to live at 100%.

Once you start pushing past ~80%, you reduce your margin for:
🚫 Load Spikes
🚫 System Inefficiencies
🚫 Unexpected Changes

And in redundant systems, the risk is even higher. If you have two UPS systems, each one should be carrying no more than ~40%. Because if one goes down, the other has to take the full load. If both are already near capacity, failover becomes the problem.

Maxing out your UPS doesn’t mean you’re efficient. It means you’re operating without a buffer (and with reduced runtime).

And in power systems, the buffer is what keeps everything running when something changes.

Meet the People Behind the Uptime: Angela, CEO.

While most people think of uptime in terms of equipment and systems, there’s a whole side of the business that keeps everything running behind the scenes and that's where Angela leads the way.

From HR and payroll to finance, tax, and legal — she manages the operational foundation that allows the rest of the team to focus on supporting our clients. It’s what keeps our business moving, the team supported, and everything running the way it should.

Because uptime doesn’t just happen in the field. It happens in the details behind the scenes.

Spring is when small power system issues start to show up.

Temperature swings.
More frequent power events.
Systems getting pushed a little harder than usual.

Most of the time, nothing fails immediately. But this is when batteries start to show stress, UPS systems drift, and monitoring gaps become more noticeable.

Curious what others are seeing this time of year — where do issues tend to show up first in your environment?

Meet the People Behind the Uptime: Meet Chrissy Thomas!

If you’ve ever worked with PTI, there’s a good chance she’s played a role in making sure everything ran smoothly — even if you don’t see it.

She manages orders, handles invoices, works with suppliers, and keeps the day-to-day operations moving without missing a beat. In short, she keeps the train running on the tracks.

It’s the kind of work that doesn’t always get noticed — but it’s what ensures your orders arrive on time and projects stay on schedule. She is the glue that holds our office together and your project with PTI running smoothly.
