Latest News & Announcements

CALERA, OKLAHOMA — Fuzion Consulting Group™, a technology consulting firm, today announced the official launch of Fuzion Chickasaw Group™, a new Native American Woman-Owned business founded by Proud Chickasaw Nation Citizen Donna Webb.

Headquartered in Calera, Oklahoma, Fuzion Chickasaw Group will bring enterprise-grade technology and consulting capabilities to tribal nations, tribal enterprises, Native-owned businesses, and community-focused organizations across Oklahoma, Texas, and beyond.

A Sister Company With Shared Foundations

Fuzion Chickasaw Group operates as a separate business with its own ownership and leadership, but shares the same founding team, delivery methodology, and operational standards as Fuzion Consulting Group. The two companies maintain distinct missions:

• Fuzion Consulting Group™ serves enterprise clients broadly — utilities, construction, engineering, government, and corporate IT.
• Fuzion Chickasaw Group™ focuses specifically on Native American tribes, tribal enterprises, nonprofits, and public sector organizations where sovereignty and cultural understanding are central to the work.

Pursuing DBE Certifications

Fuzion Chickasaw Group is actively pursuing two Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) certifications under Donna Webb’s qualifications: Minority Woman-Owned Business (MWBE) and Native American Woman-Owned. If awarded, these certifications would enable Fuzion Chickasaw Group to qualify for DBE-eligible opportunities across federal, state, tribal, utility, and prime-contractor procurement programs — opening access to a category of work that Fuzion Consulting Group could not pursue directly.

The company operates independently while collaborating with Fuzion Consulting Group on joint engagements — including the recently launched Support Beacon Relief™, a disaster logistics platform built in partnership with Texas-based 501(c)(3) Rancher Navy.

What’s Next

Fuzion Chickasaw Group is now accepting engagements across its primary focus areas: tribal government modernization, tribal enterprise technology, nonprofit and community programs, and disaster relief logistics through SB217™. The company will continue collaborating with Fuzion Consulting Group on joint delivery for clients who benefit from both firms’ combined capabilities.

Rancher Navy, the Texas 501(c)(3) nonprofit that provides disaster relief to farmers, ranchers and agricultural communities, has mobilized a coordinated relief effort for families affected by the Ross Fire in Texas. The organization is accepting requests for assistance, matching donated supplies to the operations that need them, and asking for volunteer haulers with trucks and trailers.

The fire has burned pasture, fencing and structures, leaving livestock producers without feed and without the fencing needed to contain animals. Rancher Navy is working with affected families to identify what has been lost and to move replacement supplies from donors across the region.

How to Get Help

Farm and ranch families affected by the Ross Fire can request assistance at ranchernavy.org. Families in immediate danger should follow the instructions of county emergency officials first.

How to Help

Rancher Navy is asking for three kinds of support, all coordinated through ranchernavy.org:

• Donations of supplies: hay, feed, fencing, panels, water and veterinary supplies. Donors list what they have and where it is located; Rancher Navy handles the matching.
• Haulers: volunteers with a truck and trailer to move loads between donors and affected families. This is the organization’s most urgent need.
• Coordination of volunteers: people who can take calls, track requests and keep records current from wherever they are.

Financial contributions can be made at ranchernavy.org.

Coordinated Through Support Beacon Relief™

The response is being run on Support Beacon Relief, a disaster-logistics platform that gives Rancher Navy a single record of every load from the moment it is offered to the moment it is delivered — replacing the phone trees and spreadsheets that have historically carried this work. Volunteers, donors, haulers and recipients register at ranchernavy.org and work from a web portal or a mobile app.

Support Beacon Relief was designed and developed by shared resources from Fuzion Consulting Group and Fuzion Chickasaw Group, in partnership with Rancher Navy, and is licensed to the nonprofit at no cost. Fuzion support staff are available to Rancher Navy volunteers by phone and email for the duration of the response.

The platform has supported prior Rancher Navy operations, including the Kerrville, Texas flood response and the Ranger Road fire response.

About Rancher Navy

Rancher Navy is a Texas 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2022 by Morgan Broome, Amy Houston Gaddis, and Holli Geeslin. The organization mobilizes volunteers, heavy equipment and logistics to support Texas farmers, ranchers and agricultural communities during wildfires, tornadoes and floods.

About Fuzion Consulting Group and Fuzion Chickasaw Group

Fuzion Consulting Group and Fuzion Chickasaw Group are sister companies delivering strategy, technology and operations services. Together they develop the SB217™ Support Beacon platform, including Support Beacon Relief™ for nonprofit disaster response.

The 2025 FieldWorks story introduced Fuzion’s direction for connected field delivery. Fuzion365 FieldWorks™ is described as a modular field-execution product built around Microsoft 365 workflows and Bluebeam connectivity.

FieldWorks is intended for teams that need practical access to current work information near the point of execution while maintaining connection to the Microsoft 365 environment supporting the broader organization. Its modular approach helps teams adopt field workflow capabilities suited to their operating needs.

Availability and Deployment

• Product scope: Field execution.
• Available as SaaS or in a private Microsoft tenant.
• Focused on Microsoft 365 field execution, Bluebeam connectivity, and modular delivery.

Read the Fuzion365 FieldWorks product brief for the current product overview.

The 2026 ProjectWorks story described Fuzion’s product direction for integrated project information. Fuzion ProjectWorks™ focuses on long-range forecasts, project controls, and compliance support.

ProjectWorks is intended for capital-project teams that need a clear, durable record across planning and execution. Bringing forecasting, accountable controls, and compliance support together is designed to help those teams maintain visibility without treating each discipline as a disconnected activity.

Current Testing Focus

• Long-range forecasts for capital-work planning.
• Project controls organized around accountable records.
• Compliance support for regulated operating environments.

Availability

Confirm ProjectWorks modules, capabilities, and delivery timing with Fuzion. The intended deployment model is SaaS or a private Microsoft tenant.

Fuzion ConstructWorks™ is described as an AI document and construction-management product for the decisions, documents, and coordination surrounding complex builds.

The product is intended for construction and project teams working through document-intensive processes where controlled information and clear decisions matter. Its AI-supported workflows are designed to assist that work while retaining human review rather than replacing accountable judgment.

Testing and Deployment

• AI-supported document and construction management.
• Configurable workflows with human review.
• Intended deployment in a Fuzion-hosted environment or customer Azure PaaS.

Confirm ConstructWorks capabilities, configuration, and delivery timing with Fuzion.

Fuzion ProgramWorks™ is described as a governance product for capital programs. Current design work centers on making gates, KPIs, and escalations visible within a consistent operating framework.

ProgramWorks is intended for capital-program leaders and governance teams that need a structured view of decisions, performance indicators, and issues requiring escalation. The planned value is a clearer leadership view across the program without reducing governance to disconnected project updates.

Planned Deployment

The planned deployment model includes SaaS or a private Microsoft tenant, including GCC and GCC High environments. ProgramWorks is not currently generally available, and no release date is being announced in this update.

Support Beacon Rescue™ is described as a volunteer search-and-rescue deployment product jointly developed by Fuzion Consulting Group™ and Fuzion Chickasaw Group™.

Inspired by Rancher Navy’s volunteer-response work, Rescue is intended for teams coordinating people in the field. Its current focus is team location, assignments, and coordinated response so volunteers and response leaders can work from a shared operational picture.

Current Testing Focus

• Volunteer team location during a response.
• Assignments supporting coordinated deployment.
• A shared view for field teams and response coordination.

Rescue capabilities remain subject to confirmation; no feature set or delivery date is promised.

Support Beacon Logistics™ is described as a joint product of Fuzion Consulting Group™ and Fuzion Chickasaw Group™. Inspired by work with Rancher Navy and Support Beacon Relief™, its intended scope extends beyond disaster response to commercial, enterprise, nonprofit, and humanitarian logistics.

The product is intended for organizations coordinating resources, goods, and field deliveries across fleet, warehouse, yard, load, and field-delivery operations. The planned value is a more coordinated operational view across those connected activities.

Availability

Support Beacon Logistics has proposed enterprise scope; confirm capabilities and timing with Fuzion. No release date is guaranteed.

OLATHE, KANSAS — Fuzion Companies™ announced that it has delivered Support Beacon Relief™, a disaster-relief logistics platform, to the founders of Rancher Navy for hands-on testing — donated at no charge. The milestone arrives as communities across the Texas Hill Country mark one year since the catastrophic July 4, 2025, flooding along the Guadalupe River, one of the deadliest natural disasters in Texas history.

The partnership began quietly, away from any boardroom. This past winter, Fuzion founder Dan Goretskie answered a social-media plea for trucks, trailers, and hay during the plains wildfires — hauling hay to ranchers in Gate, Oklahoma, and Ashland, Kansas. There he met Rancher Navy founders Morgan Broome and Amy Houston Gaddis. Both Fuzion operating companies — Fuzion Consulting Group™ and its Native American & Woman-Owned sister firm Fuzion Chickasaw Group™ — built and donated the platform together.

Support Beacon Relief™ replaces spreadsheet-driven coordination with secure, real-time visibility — managing donations, volunteer drivers, disaster locations, routes, and delivery timelines so materials, supplies, and help reach ranchers and farmers faster when every hour counts. Fuzion owns the platform and licenses it to Rancher Navy at no charge, with the intention to continue doing the same for other nonprofits providing services to folks in need.

Looking ahead, Fuzion plans to extend Support Beacon Relief™ to additional nonprofits and to the Chickasaw and Choctaw Nations, and is developing a for-profit enterprise edition, Support Beacon Logistics™, within its SB217™ platform suite.

“One year on, our hearts are with the families and communities of the Hill Country, and with every volunteer who answered that day,” the company said. “If our technology helps Rancher Navy reach a few more people a little faster next time, then we have done our small part.”

Fuzion Companies™ announced the development of Support Beacon Rescue™, a dedicated Search & Rescue (SAR) application built to support Rancher Navy’s volunteer Search and Rescue operations, other nonprofits, and tribal nations.

Support Beacon Rescue™ extends the Support Beacon platform into field coordination for ground teams — helping SAR volunteers organize deployments, track team locations and assignments, and coordinate searches with the same secure, real-time visibility that Support Beacon Relief™ brings to disaster-relief logistics.

The application was inspired by Rancher Navy’s volunteer Search and Rescue team, whose members answered the call during the July 4, 2025, Guadalupe River flooding in the Texas Hill Country. Fuzion intends to make Support Beacon Rescue™ available to nonprofit SAR organizations and tribal nation emergency-response teams as the platform matures.

Support Beacon Rescue™ is described within Fuzion’s SB217™ platform suite, alongside Support Beacon Relief™ and the enterprise edition, Support Beacon Logistics™.

Fuzion Consulting Group is pleased to recognize its collaboration with Veracity Consulting Inc., a business and technology consulting firm based in Overland Park, Kansas, who supported Fuzion on several mission-critical enterprise initiatives between January 2024 and January 2025.

• Project & Program Management (PMO)
• Process Automation
• Change Management
• Training development and enablement materials

Fuzion Chickasaw Group and Fuzion Consulting Group are honored to partner with Rancher Navy, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting agricultural communities affected by natural disasters, to provide direct wildfire and drought relief across Oklahoma, Kansas, and Texas.

In response to a series of devastating wildfires — including the Ranger Road Fire, Stevens Fire, Andrew Lane Fire, and the Texas Panhandle Fire — Fuzion donated the use of company-owned trucks and trailers, along with staff time and logistics coordination. Teams hauled hay and essential supplies to ranchers in Gate and Knowles, Oklahoma; Ashland, Kansas; and surrounding rural areas, supporting livestock operations and families facing immediate loss.

The effort was coordinated with Morgan Broome and Amy Houston of Rancher Navy. Beyond hands-on support, the partnership aligns with Fuzion’s work on Support Beacon Relief™ — a disaster-response logistics platform that replaces spreadsheet-driven workflows with secure, real-time visibility, donated at no cost to nonprofit partners.

Current context: Support Beacon Relief™, Support Beacon Rescue™, and Support Beacon Logistics™ have distinct operating scopes and qualifications. See the current product catalog and the Support Beacon Logistics product update for current scope and qualifications.

Historical context: The announcement below is preserved as originally presented in 2026. Its Fall 2027 statement records the target described at that time; it is not a current availability statement and should not be read as a guaranteed release date.

Fuzion Consulting Group and Fuzion Chickasaw Group are proud to announce the development of an Enterprise version of Support Beacon Relief, a next-generation logistics and coordination platform inspired by Fuzion’s nonprofit partnership with Rancher Navy.

The Enterprise Support Beacon initiative was born from real-world collaboration with Morgan Broome and Amy Houston, Founders and Directors of Rancher Navy. Fuzion worked closely with Rancher Navy to automate spreadsheet-driven logistics used to coordinate hay donations, volunteer drivers, disaster locations, and delivery timelines.

From Grassroots Relief to Enterprise Capability

Support Beacon Relief was initially designed to enable nonprofits to respond faster and more safely during natural disasters by replacing manual coordination with real-time visibility and automation. Fuzion is now developing an AI-enabled SaaS Enterprise platform to extend these capabilities across industries.

Planned Enterprise Capabilities

• End-to-end logistics coordination
• Secure role-based access
• Real-time tracking of deliveries and routes
• Mobile-first workflows
• Enterprise reporting and auditability
• Flexible deployments across sectors

The Enterprise version of Support Beacon Relief is targeted for Fall 2027. Development will continue alongside nonprofit partners to ensure real-world alignment.

Fuzion Consulting Group and Fuzion Chickasaw Group are actively developing ProjectWorks™, a fully integrated Project Information Management System (PMIS) designed to modernize how complex projects and programs are planned, governed, and executed in regulated and enterprise environments.

ProjectWorks builds upon Fuzion’s extensive experience supporting mission-critical enterprise project management platforms for large utility and infrastructure organizations. Designed as a cloud-native AI SaaS solution, ProjectWorks can be deployed within Fuzion’s Microsoft 365 or AWS tenants, with enterprise-grade security, scalability, and fully supported SLA models.

Key Capabilities Under Development

• Robust Stage Gate lifecycle management (concept through closeout)
• Simplified, role-based workflows for project and program stakeholders
• Integrated project tracking and long-range forecasting
• AI-assisted insights to reduce overhead and improve decision-making
• Enterprise reporting and visualization
• Secure, auditable governance aligned with regulated environments

Many of the core capabilities have been informed by Fuzion’s multi-year support of a business-critical Enterprise Project Management System (EPMS) used across Generation, Operations, and Transmission & Distribution domains—now reimagined using modern AI, cloud, and automation technologies.

Built by Practitioners, Not Just Developers

ProjectWorks is being developed by Fuzion’s diverse team of business, engineering, and technology experts who have spent years stabilizing, modernizing, and supporting enterprise project platforms under real operational pressures. Fuzion anticipates releasing the Enterprise version of ProjectWorks in Fall 2027.

Fuzion Consulting Group and Fuzion Chickasaw Group continue to expand the capabilities of Fuzion365 Fieldworks, an enterprise construction and document management platform built on the Microsoft 365 Power Platform.

Originally launched in Summer 2019, Fuzion365 Fieldworks has evolved into a mature, secure, and scalable SaaS solution supporting complex project and program environments across regulated industries—serving field teams, engineers, project managers, Owner’s Engineers, and executive leadership with secure, role-based access, workflow automation, reporting, and AI-enabled capabilities within the Microsoft ecosystem.

Deployment Models

• A Fuzion-hosted deployment within Fuzion’s Microsoft 365 tenant with a fully supported SLA
• A client-hosted deployment installed directly into a customer’s Microsoft tenant, also supported under a fully managed SLA model

Proven Enterprise Use in Regulated Environments

Fuzion365 Fieldworks serves as the foundation for the Generation Document Management Portal (GDMP) developed by Fuzion for a major electric utility in the Phoenix, Arizona metro area. Since the initial engagement in 2021, Fuzion has provided multi-year design, development, pilot testing, change management, training, and ongoing application lifecycle management, with a Master Service Agreement executed in 2025 formalizing continued platform support, enhancement, and expansion.

Key Capabilities Delivered

• Centralized construction and generation document management
• Secure document storage, versioning, and auditable approval workflows
• Integration with Microsoft Teams, Outlook, Power BI, and Power Apps
• Field-friendly user experiences optimized for operational environments
• Workflow automation, reporting, and mobile functionality
• Continuous software upgrades, performance optimization, and SLA-based support

Fuzion365 Fieldworks reflects Fuzion’s product philosophy: build solutions grounded in real operational needs, supported by disciplined application lifecycle management, and designed to evolve alongside customer requirements—not vendor roadmaps.

Fuzion Consulting Group and Fuzion Chickasaw Group are proud to announce the development of Take Cover™, a mobile and desktop application designed to support community-based severe weather preparedness during tornadoes and other life-threatening storm events.

The idea for Take Cover was first inspired by conversations led by Donna Webb, Founder & CEO of Fuzion Chickasaw Group, who shared her vision for better supporting Native American communities and rural neighborhoods in planning for severe weather. That vision took shape during early collaboration sessions with Fuzion’s nonprofit partner Rancher Navy, alongside its founders Morgan Broome and Amy Houston.

Take Cover was initially developed to support the Tabernacle Community HOA in Calera, Oklahoma, and Fuzion is now expanding the platform to support Native American tribal communities in Oklahoma and nonprofit disaster-response partners. At its core, Take Cover is built on a simple but critical belief: preparedness saves lives.

Core Capabilities

• Community shelter mapping with route planning to approved storm shelters
• Severe weather monitoring distinguishing Tornado Watches vs. Warnings, tied to NOAA alerts
• Emergency communication via text and in-app alerts during severe weather
• Preparedness & education resources, drills, and trusted partner links

Take Cover complements Fuzion’s broader mission-driven platform ecosystem—alongside Fuzion365 Fieldworks and Support Beacon Relief—reflecting Fuzion’s commitment to applying enterprise-grade technology to real-world problems, from regulated infrastructure to disaster response and community resilience.

Fuzion Consulting Group and Fuzion Chickasaw Group recently had the privilege of visiting Anderson Bean Boot Company and Rios of Mercedes Boots in Mercedes, Texas—two iconic American brands recognized for exceptional craftsmanship, heritage, and an unwavering commitment to quality. Both companies proudly operate through a dedicated network of independent boot, shoe, and Western wear retailers rather than selling directly to consumers.

The visit was graciously hosted by Ryan Vaughan, President & CEO, and Clayton Evans, Chief Financial Officer of Rios of Mercedes, who provided an in-depth look at the boot-making process and the skilled teams behind each pair. The tour was made possible through the sponsorship and coordination of Michael Wright of The Shoe & Boot Outlet in Tupelo, Mississippi.

Where Craftsmanship and Values Align

At Fuzion, respect for craftsmanship and long-term value is more than an operational principle—it’s part of the company culture. The experience offered valuable insight into how tradition, pride, and disciplined execution continue to define these legacy brands as they grow and evolve, supported by strong retailer relationships that connect craftsmanship directly to customers.

A Relationship Built on Respect

Fuzion approached the visit with no expectation of immediate engagement—only a desire to learn, listen, and understand. Any future collaboration would focus on complementing existing platforms, streamlining manual processes, and ensuring technology supports artisans and operations without disrupting the traditions that make these brands exceptional. Fuzion sincerely thanks the teams at Anderson Bean Boot Company and Rios of Mercedes Boots for their hospitality, transparency, and time.
