Our story

From the IBM 8088 to today.

Chris Harrison’s journey in IT began with the iconic IBM 8088. Over more than 30 years he has built deep, hands-on experience across computers, networks, programming and security.

Chris holds a degree in Web Development from IADT Tampa and a specialization in Cybersecurity from Fort Hays State University. Before founding the company in March 2023, he spent 18 years at Central Plains Computer Service in Great Bend, Kansas, serving as General Manager and Network Operations Chief Technician.

Today CKMSP brings that experience to businesses, churches, schools and families from Hutchinson to western Kansas — with the personal, responsive service you’d expect from a neighbor.
