National TAB Intelligence commemorates its 20th anniversary this year, marking two decades of addressing critical needs in building performance management. Founded in 2006 to provide better consistency and accountability in HVAC testing, adjusting, and balancing services for restaurants, the company has evolved into a full-service provider for institutional facilities including schools and hospitals across Texas.
The company's growth stems from recognizing industry gaps where customers lacked reliable partners for maintaining building systems. "We saw how customers didn't get consistency in the industry and have someone they could rely on 100% and be accountable for all their stores," said Joe Hertenstein, President of NTi. This focus on accountability through brands, build-out, and performance has driven the company's expansion across physical locations and service offerings throughout the state.
NTi's transformation into a technology company culminated in its 2023 rebranding from National TAB to National TAB Intelligence. Strategic investments in software platforms have enhanced reporting capabilities, while partnerships with like-minded companies nationwide and rigorous training programs for field engineers have created what the company describes as "a full house of technology, knowledge, and services." The company maintains over 95% self-performing capability through its trained team, ensuring quality control across Texas projects.
The company's approach emphasizes holistic partnerships with clients, working collaboratively to improve building performance from design through maintenance phases. This customer-focused methodology has enabled NTi to expand its expertise beyond restaurants to larger institutional projects requiring specialized HVAC solutions.

Looking forward, NTi anticipates continued acceleration in growth while maintaining its commitment to technological advancement and team development. The company's evolution from a traditional TAB provider to an intelligence-driven service organization reflects broader industry trends toward data-informed building management and performance optimization that impacts energy efficiency, operational costs, and environmental sustainability for Texas businesses and institutions.
