The Way Technology Procurement Should Be

For 15 years, we’ve helped businesses make smarter technology decisions by cutting through the noise. With deep industry connections and technical expertise, we go beyond the obvious to find the best solutions. Our strong vendor relationships and insider knowledge give CIOs, CTOs, and tech buyers alike an edge—helping them maximize their technology spend and source the right tools and services.
Unlike direct supplier sales teams, we aren’t tied to quotas or pushing a specific product. Our only focus is solving your problem with the best fit, not selling you a widget. From supplier benchmarking and contract negotiations to project management, we handle the heavy lifting so you can stay focused on growth.
Whether you’re a startup or a large enterprise, we deliver results—no wasted time, no hidden agendas, just solutions that work.

Derek W. Roush
Founder & President
As President of VocalPoint Consulting, I lead a team of sales, project management, and technical subject matter experts on a mission to transform technology procurement and IT advisory services. In 2010, after two decades in telecommunications with companies like Expanets, Avaya, and Windstream, I founded VocalPoint to disrupt the traditional sales-driven approach that prioritized quotas over client success. My goal was to create a better, strategy-first procurement model that helps businesses navigate an evolving tech landscape and adopt the right solutions for growth and efficiency.
Through our proprietary IT Compass framework, we streamline procurement, optimize contract negotiations, and drive seamless technology implementations. Since our launch, we’ve grown from 30 suppliers in 2010 to over 700 suppliers today, fueling consistent revenue growth and expanding our ability to serve clients with tailored technology solutions.
I am a certified solutions professional in UCaaS, CCaaS, Cloud Computing, Telecom, and Networking Solutions, and I actively contribute to Orlando’s tech and business communities through leadership roles and advisory boards.
