IT that stays secure and running. Automation that answers your customers.
We design and manage networks, cloud, cybersecurity, and backups for small and mid-size businesses in the DC metro area. We also build AI tools that answer customer inquiries, book appointments, and follow up, so fewer leads slip away.
Where Small Businesses Lose Time and Customers
When IT fails, everything stops.
Most of the businesses we work with aren't short on customers. They lose them in the gaps: an unanswered call, a slow reply, a booking nobody confirmed.
We close those gaps two ways: by keeping your IT secure and running, and by automating the replies, bookings, and follow-ups your team doesn't have time for.
Calls and messages nobody answers
A customer calls at 7 PM, gets voicemail, and books with whoever picks up next.
Staff stuck on repeat work
Confirming appointments, re-typing customer details, and answering the same five questions eat hours every week.
Systems that don't talk to each other
Your website, email, calendar, and customer list each hold part of the picture, so things fall through.
IT that only gets attention when it breaks
Backups nobody has tested, laptops without updates, and no one to call when email goes down.
What We Do
Two kinds of work: automating the replies, bookings, and follow-ups that slow you down, and keeping your technology secure and running.

A Local IT Team That Picks Up the Phone
Based in Ashburn, VA · Serving the DC metro
ITWORLDTEKS Solutions was founded by Serge Sefekme, a network engineer with hands-on experience across enterprise networking, cybersecurity, and cloud infrastructure. After years of building and securing networks for larger organizations, he started ITWORLDTEKS Solutions to bring that same level of engineering to small and mid-size businesses, which often get either no IT support or a call center.
Today we look after networks, cloud, security, and backups for businesses across the DC metro area, and build AI automation that helps them answer customers faster. We're a small team on purpose: you deal with the people doing the work.
