We’re a local managed IT company founded on a simple belief: Orange County businesses deserve a true technology partner, not just a help desk.
Our story
“There has to be a better way.”
After years working for some of the larger IT consulting firms in Orange County, Justin Henretta kept noticing the same problem: clients weren’t being heard. Service was reactive. Relationships were transactional. And when something went wrong, the burden always seemed to fall on the client.
So in April 2011, he and Kristin started Skyward Technical Solutions with a different model in mind.
IT is in Justin’s DNA. His father served in the US Navy before joining HP’s original plotter team in the early days of personal computing, back when the industry was still figuring out what it was. Justin grew up watching technology reshape how businesses worked, and he carried that long view into every client relationship he’s built since.
What made starting Skyward feel inevitable was a pattern Justin kept noticing throughout his career: every time he changed firms, his former clients and colleagues would call him personally. Not the company. Him. That signal was hard to ignore.
Skyward was built on what that pattern pointed to: that people want a real relationship with their IT provider, not a ticket number. Justin’s job, as he puts it, is to listen, really listen, to what a business needs and make sure the team delivers it.
“The closer we get to our clients, the more we learn about the way they do business. That’s what allows us to actually help them grow.”

Why clients choose us
A different kind of IT partner
Predictable pricing
All-inclusive monthly rates with no surprise hourly bills. You know exactly what IT costs each month, which makes planning easier and removes the incentive to let small problems sit.
Flexible service agreements
Discounted rates are available for clients who commit to a service term, but it’s never a requirement. We understand that signing a long-term agreement with a company you don’t know takes trust you haven’t had the chance to build yet. We’d rather earn it first.
A long-term growth partner
We’ve helped Orange County businesses scale from $10 million to $150 million, and we were present at every stage, adapting their technology as they grew. We’re not a break-fix vendor. We’re a strategic partner invested in where you’re going.
Specialists across key industries
We serve businesses across some of Orange County’s most demanding sectors, including manufacturing, med tech, architecture, CPA firms, and healthcare. Each comes with its own technology requirements, and we know them well.
