Brief Overview

I am a Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business - SDVOSB. I am a Technologist and Project Manager. 11F was my "Military Occupational Specialty" (MOS) back in the day - it stood for "Infantry Operations and Intelligence". So, Tech 11F is a twist on those to mean Technology Operations and Intelligence. ( 11F has since transformed into 18F, but that is irrelevant).

Brand Name
Tech 11F, Inc.
Target Audience

US Government and Corporations that benefit from hiring SDVOSB contractors. The Federal Government has dictated that a certain amount of Government Contracts MUST be set aside for Small Business... disadvantaged, minority owned, women owned, and veteran owned, etc.
If you really care look at FedBizOps - a web site for Federal Business Opportunities... you might even find something for yourself... but do my logo first, ok?

Requirements

See www.tech11f.com - a simple static web site that has an old version of a logo and a color schema. The original 11F MOS was on a shield but that is not needed. The tag line is "Technology Operations and Intelligence". I would prefer only a hint to the military aspect so that those in the know will see it but others won't be misled or distracted by it. I am not that fond of OLIVE DRAB ... ( I was in the US Army during VietNam ), but I do like Green... and gee, Green is popular as a theme these days... so lets stay with that in a minimalist way.
Another thought that I always liked ( and I date myself ) is the old Palladin TV series "Have Gun, Will Travel" - a western about a do-gooder gun for hire. I am a Certified Project Manager (PMP) and that is a well known, industry wide certification, so "Have PMP, Will Travel" is catchy - not sure if that works anywhere and is only a thought. It has no place in the Logo, but I may use it later on B-cards or stationery. I do love to travel and do projects, and ramble on.
Simplicity and Clarity counts.
ASK ME QUESTIONS if you want.
Have fun.
Thank you.
