Most clients and trade partners struggle to tell the difference between a truly qualified integrator and one that simply markets well.
HTA Certification solves that problem by providing an independent, third-party verification of a company’s technical ability, customer service and aftercare, and business reputation.
HTA Certification helps qualified integrators:
What to say to a homeowner
“Only a select few—less than 5%—of integrators meet the rigorous standards of the Home Technology Association’s certified program. We’re proud to be one of them.
When choosing a technology partner, look for the HTA Certified seal—it means you’re working with a vetted professional. I’ll send a link* that explains how this certification helps ensure a great experience with your home’s tech.”

What to say to a builder, architect, or designer
"I’m an HTA Design Partner, an expert technology integrator who collaborates early in the design phase.
Unlike typical integrators, I work with your team on space planning, aesthetics, and documentation to ensure alignment and avoid costly tech-related delays or change orders. I can send a link that explains how this supports your workflow and client relationships*.”
