Why
Clarity, responsibility, and systems that hold up.
Technology should support the business - not bury it in noise, risk, or brittle workarounds. This page is the conviction and leadership story behind the commercial work.

Name and origin
TechKnowligence takes its name from our founding commitment: “Managing Technology with Knowledge & Intelligence.” For 17 years, that commitment has guided how we understand the work, make decisions, and help clients put dependable systems in place.
The name reflects an approach grounded in understanding the business, making informed decisions, and carrying those decisions through to working systems.
Leadership background
Donny McIver is the owner and founder of Alethos, LLC, operating as TechKnowligence. He brings 30 years of professional experience, including 17 years building and leading the business.
His background spans emergency medical services and clinical instruction, security leadership, healthcare technology, and business ownership. Across those settings, his work has centered on helping people and organizations function reliably when the requirements are complicated and the consequences matter.
Through TechKnowligence, Donny has worked closely with owners, operations leaders, security leadership, software developers, and outside providers. In a CISO-led client environment, he supported DevOps needs, operating controls, and SOC 2 audit work. The role required connecting the technical work with security expectations and the business priorities behind them.
During the nationwide COVID-19 testing response, he directed technology and field infrastructure for a rollout that launched 26 sites in 14 days and expanded to more than 200 locations. His responsibilities included creating repeatable deployment approaches and coordinating the systems, equipment, connectivity, and logistics needed to support work in the field.
He has also coordinated technology for healthcare expansion and helped organizations improve infrastructure, recovery, vendors, and everyday operating practices. The business has employed staff during its history and is currently owner-operated, with Donny leading client engagements directly.
How the work shows up today
Today, TechKnowligence combines ongoing technology leadership with selected technical execution. Alethos also houses focused products and projects, including Sanctuary Signal and CrewGauge, extending that experience into other practical needs.
TechKnowligence is a DBA of Alethos, LLC.
Faith and responsibility
This work is not just technical. It is a responsibility. The systems we design and support affect real people, real operations, and real outcomes.
Donny's Christian faith shapes his approach to stewardship, integrity, and service. His aim is to understand the work, take responsibility for his part, and help leave people with systems they can use and understand.
We believe our work should reflect care, integrity, and accountability. We also believe our work is ultimately accountable to God, and we aim to operate in a way that reflects that responsibility in how we make decisions and serve others.
What that means in practice
We favor explicit standards, direct communication, and decisions that hold up over time.
The goal is not just to resolve issues. It is to help people leave with systems they can use and understand - so teams can focus on their work without unnecessary friction.
