What we do

A full-stack partner for your infrastructure.

From the data center to the endpoint, we cover the systems that keep your organization operational, compliant, and resilient.

01

IT Strategic Planning

Technology roadmaps, IT strategic plans, and realistic budgets that align your systems with clinical and operational goals — built for tight clinical and financial environments.

02

Business Continuity & DR

Veeam-based backup plus tested business continuity and disaster recovery plans, so an outage, ransomware hit, or hardware failure becomes an inconvenience — never a stop to patient care.

03

Virtualization

VMware design, implementation, and consolidation that turns sprawling hardware into a lean, resilient, easily managed environment.

04

Endpoint & Network Security

XDR deployment, hardening, and monitoring across endpoints and networks — plus wireless and privacy security — to detect threats early and contain them fast.

05

Microsoft 365 & Cloud

M365 administration plus AWS and Azure hosting — migrations, identity, and cloud architecture tuned for cost, security, and reliability.

06

Managed Services & Projects

Proactive support and hands-on project management for migrations and rollouts — empowering your internal team with documentation, patching, and a partner on call.

Built for healthcare & non-profits

We speak clinical and we speak compliance.

Healthcare IT isn't generic IT. Uptime affects patient care, data carries real obligations, and budgets are tight. We've spent nearly two decades inside FQHCs, MSOs, and community health centers across California, Hawaii, and the Pacific — and we build around that reality.

  • EHR & HIT systemsHands-on with eClinicalWorks and the surrounding health information systems that clinical teams rely on.
  • HIPAA-conscious infrastructureAccess controls, encryption, auditing, and backup practices designed with protected health information in mind.
  • Non-profit budgets, enterprise standardsPragmatic recommendations that respect limited resources without cutting corners on security or reliability.
  • Windows Server & OS expertiseFrom Active Directory to fleet management, the Microsoft estate kept patched, hardened, and dependable.
Our ramp-up process is designed to empower your technical team and outfit them with the tools they need to succeed.

Leadership

Two decades of healthcare technology leadership.

Tristar is led by Leonard Kwong, who brings more than 19 years of progressively responsible experience guiding healthcare information technology — including 10 years as a Chief Technology Officer within Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) and Management Services Organizations (MSOs).

He has led organizations through IT strategic planning, budgeting, and the launch of health-technology initiatives in demanding clinical and financial environments — and has built and applied the business continuity and disaster recovery plans that keep care running when systems are tested. His background spans network and wireless design, privacy and HIPAA security, EMR/EHR deployment, virtualization, cloud, and database work across healthcare, financial, academic, manufacturing, and non-profit sectors.

How we work

A clear path from gaps to a working plan.

Every engagement starts with understanding where you are. Then we map where you need to be — with timelines, milestones, and a cost analysis you can actually act on.

STEP 01

Consult & assess

A comprehensive review to identify gaps, risks, and opportunities across your systems, security posture, and workflows.

STEP 02

Plan & cost

A detailed project plan with timelines, milestones, and a transparent cost analysis — no surprises, no jargon.

STEP 03

Deliver & empower

We execute alongside your team and hand off documentation and know-how, so the solution outlives the engagement.

Why Tristar

Senior experience, personally delivered.

We're choosy about who we work with — because every client deserves real attention, not a ticket number.

Two decades in the trenches

19+ years across IT strategy, security, virtualization, and healthcare systems — including a decade as a healthcare CTO, applied directly to your environment.

You stay in control

We empower your internal team rather than creating dependency — knowledge transfer is built into every project.

Security & compliance first

From XDR to backup verification, decisions are made through the lens of protecting your data and your patients.
