More Uptime.More Revenue.

Your drive-thru stays moving and your stores stay open — even when equipment fails.

One Partner. Zero Chaos.

All your tech. One team. No vendor runaround.

Fast Fixes. Less Downtime.

One call. Rapid response. Real technicians.

When something breaks, the vendors blame each other.

  • Camera vendor blames the network.

  • Network blames POS.

  • POS blames the internet.

Hours go by — nothing gets fixed.

When you're preparing to open a new store, no one tells you what you actually need.

You're left guessing on POS networks, camera setups, drive-thru configuration, lane logic… The details you didn’t know you needed to know.

When critical equipment dies, support takes weeks — not hours.

A failed headset, dead camera, or broken base station can cost thousands…
before anyone even shows up.

The QSR Technology Industry Is Broken

And franchisees pay the price every day.

When something breaks, the vendors blame each other. Camera guy points to the network. Network points to POS. POS points to the internet. Hours go by — nothing gets fixed.

Meanwhile, 80% of your revenue is sitting in that drive-thru lane.

You shouldn't have to manage five vendors to run one drive-thru.

The real problem isn’t the technology — it’s the vendor chaos.

Too many vendors. Too little accountability. And the cost lands on you.

our story

The Team That Built It Is Back

Dave Gruthoff spent 25 years building the Rocky Mountain region's most trusted drive-thru service company. When he stepped away, new ownership ran it into the ground.

Loss of talent. Loss of customers. Loss of trust.

So Dave came out of retirement. He brought back the technicians who made it great. And together with Norm Snell, they rebuilt it as HM Communications — same team, same values, same commitment to the customers who never gave up on them.

Many of your stores already know us. Now it's official.

25 Years. Same Techs. Same Commitment.

25+

Years of drive-thru expertise in the Rocky Mountain region

Same Day

Response in Denver & Salt Lake — not 2-3 weeks

1 in 4

Issues solved over the phone — no truck roll, no charge

HME Certified

Factory-trained techs who know these systems inside and out

Real Techs. Real Relationships.

Our technicians aren't subcontractors dispatched from a national call center. They're employees — with vans in your market, 20+ years of experience each, and customers who know them by name.

Call and ask for Gus. Ask for Tim. They'll remember your store.

Single Location Operators

Fast service. Fair prices. No runaround.

Your drive-thru is your lifeline. When something breaks, you need someone who answers the phone, shows up fast, and gets you back online — not a voicemail maze. We treat your one store like it's our only customer.

The tile's going up. The architect forgot the low volt. Sound familiar? Get us involved early and we'll make sure your network, cameras, drive-thru, music, and digital signage are spec'd correctly — before change orders eat your budget.
