We've got some exciting news to share! 🎉 Ironclad TEK has been named a finalist in the Oil, Gas and Energy category of the 2026 MSP Titans of the Industry Awards.

The energy industry has been part of our story for a long time. Our engineers, project teams, service desk, and operations staff have spent years learning what it takes to keep energy companies running, and this nomination belongs to all of them.

Our Director of Technology and Operations, Trond Aarflot, explains why that work matters so much:

"Technology failures aren't just inconvenient in this industry. They can impact operations, productivity, and sometimes even safety. Oil and gas companies need technology partners who understand that reality."

To our energy clients, thank you for trusting us with that responsibility. And to our team, thank you for showing up for those clients every day.

Winners will be announced December 9, and we'll keep you posted! Want to read more about the nomination and what it means for the companies we support? The full story is in the comments.
