“I founded AVTECH Software in 1988 and have knowledge from more than 40 years in the computer industry.”
Michael Sigourney founded AVTECH Software in 1988 when he recognized a need to help businesses monitor their data and software systems. In the mid-1990’s, Michael recognized the rapid growth of data centers as the Internet quickly grew in popularity. He led the introduction of Room Alert hardware based on the experiences AVTECH customers were having with downtime caused by temperature extremes and power failures. Room Alert grew to become the most successful part of AVTECH’s product line, and under Michael’s leadership the Room Alert brand has now spread worldwide with customers and resellers in 187 of 196 countries. Room Alert protects people, property, and productivity to provide peace of mind by proactively monitoring environment factors such as temperature, humidity, flood, power, smoke, motion and more.
AVTECH has been recognized as an industry leader with recognition on the “World’s Greatest…” program on the Bloomberg Network and numerous awards including the US Small Business Administration Rhode Island Exporter of the Year, International Trade Council Property Technology award, Internet Telephony Magazine’s Network Security Excellence and Product of the Year awards, and multiple Innovation in Manufacturing as well as Best Places To Work Awards from the Providence Business News.
Over the past 35 years, Michael has been deeply involved in every department and all aspects of the business. Now as Founder, Chairman & Evangelist for AVTECH Software, Michael invests his efforts as a brand ambassador for Room Alert environment monitoring.
Michael is pleased to have AVTECH continue moving in new directions and excited about the strong team that we have put together. Each year, AVTECH and Room Alert save billions of dollars for organizations of all types and worldwide.
