# sns-network-solutions
# SnS Network Solutions — Division Directory
**Parent:** SnS Network Solutions Holdings LLC (holding company)
**Structure:** Each division is a separate **operating subsidiary LLC** owned by
the parent Holdings LLC. See [`../legal-structure.md`](../legal-structure.md) for
the formation plan, fees, and timing.
**Inherits brand from:** [`../sns.md`](../sns.md)
The parent Holdings LLC owns the brand and every subsidiary but does no client
work and carries no operating liability. Each division operates as its own LLC so
its liability is walled off from the others. Divisions are formed **as each begins
real billable work** — not all at once (per-entity bookkeeping is the real cost).
> **Status:** **SNS Infrastructure is Business #1 and now lives in its own folder:
> [`../business-01-infrastructure/`](../business-01-infrastructure/).** The owner
> will stand it up and get it running self-sufficiently — intentionally kept
> right-sized, not scaled aggressively — before starting Business #2.

## Division Index
**Launch order is sequential and owner-chosen — one business at a time.**
Business #1 is **SNS Infrastructure** (active). When it stands on its own, the
owner selects Business #2. The **liability tier** below is a *separate* signal: it
tells you how urgently each division needs its own LLC *once launched* (and
suggests a sensible order), but it is **not** a committed launch sequence.
| Order | Division | Entity | Focus | Tagline | Liability Tier |
|-------|----------|--------|-------|---------|----------------|
| **#1 — ACTIVE** | [SNS Infrastructure](../business-01-infrastructure/) | SNS Infrastructure LLC | Networking, cabling, wireless | *The Physical Foundation* | High (physical/on-site) |
| #2+ (TBD) | [SNS Secure](./sns-secure.md) | SNS Secure LLC | Cameras, access control, cyber | *Protected by Design* | High (physical + cyber E&O) |
| #2+ (TBD) | [SNS Support](./sns-support.md) | SNS Support LLC | Managed services | *Always On* | Medium–High (SLA) |
| #2+ (TBD) | [SNS Systems](./sns-systems.md) | SNS Systems LLC | Linux, servers, virtualization | *Systems That Endure* | Medium |
| #2+ (TBD) | [SNS Cloud](./sns-cloud.md) | SNS Cloud LLC | AWS, Azure, hybrid | *Infrastructure Without Limits* | Medium |
| #2+ (TBD) | [SNS Web](./sns-web.md) | SNS Web LLC | Sites, hosting, presence | *Your Presence, Engineered* | Low–Medium |
| #2+ (TBD) | [SNS Software](./sns-software.md) | SNS Software LLC | Custom applications | *Software Engineered to Fit* | Medium |
When the owner does pick Business #2, the higher liability tiers (Secure, Support)
are the natural front-runners — but that's a suggestion, not a commitment. Full
rationale in [`../legal-structure.md`](../legal-structure.md).

## Boundary Notes (resolve before launch)
These divisions overlap in the source brand doc and need clear service lines so
they don't compete internally:
- **Managed Services** appears under *Systems*, *Support*, and *Cloud*. Consolidate
all recurring/managed-service contracts under **SNS Support** as the single
"always-on" revenue engine; Systems and Cloud deliver project/build work that
Support then maintains.
- **SNS Secure** blends physical security (cameras, access control — low-voltage
install) and cybersecurity (audits, monitoring, hardening) — different
insurance, licensing, and liability. Consider a future split into
*Secure (Physical)* and *Secure (Cyber)*.
- **Cloud vs. Systems vs. Infrastructure** — draw the line at where compute lives:
Infrastructure = the wire and the LAN, Systems = on-prem servers/OS/virtualization,
Cloud = anything hosted off-prem.

## Brand Inheritance (all divisions)
- **Colors:** Navy `#0A1628`, Cyan `#10C8D8`, Secondary Blue `#00A8C6`, Accent `#4CE0D2`, White `#F6F7F9`, Dark Gray `#20252B`
- **Accent-per-division system:** one shared identity; each business keeps the navy
base and gets a signature accent — parent = Cyan `#10C8D8`, Infrastructure =
Signal Blue `#1E6FFF`, Secure = Amber, Systems = Emerald, Software = Violet, Web =
Magenta, Cloud = Sky, Support = Orange. See
[`../sns-master-branding-prompt.md`](../sns-master-branding-prompt.md) and each
business's `branding-prompt.md`.
- **Type:** Geometric, legible open-source fonts (IBM Plex Sans / Inter for body; Oxanium / Sora / Rajdhani for display)
- **Voice:** Professional, clear, educational, transparent — never flashy or sales-driven
- **Logo lockup:** `SNS` wordmark + division descriptor (endorsed sub-brand — the parent brand always shows; a subsidiary never gets a standalone logo that hides SnS)
