CentricsIT

It might seem hard to believe that CentricsIT, a company that has done nearly $375 Million in sales since its inception, began as a six-person entrepreneurial venture out of the CFO’s basement—but it’s true. CentricsIT was founded in January 2007 when five high-level employees at one of the nation's largest IT resale firms resigned following a corporate buyout. The change in ownership signaled a shift toward an unattractive "big corporation" culture, which prompted action. CentricsIT's founding staff immediately grew to nine, and from there agreed to take a best-practices approach to the business. By removing the bureaucracy, applying lessons learned in the past, and weeding out ineffective processes, CentricsIT has built a loyal and growing client base.
