Fort Lauderdale, FL — May 21, 2024 — WheelHouse IT, a leading provider of IT services, recently conducted a week-long hurricane preparedness exercise to ensure the highest level of readiness for the 2024 hurricane season.

Thus testing the company’s restoration efforts, operations, logistics, communications, and customer service responses.
