STRONGSVILLE, Ohio — (BUSINESS WIRE) — October 24, 2016 — Foundation Software, Inc., developer of FOUNDATION®, America’s #1 Construction Accounting Software, was named this month to the Crain’s 52 list of fastest growing companies in Northeast Ohio by Crain’s Cleveland Business. This marks the third consecutive year in which Foundation has received the honor.

“Growth is great, but we’re also working hard for consistency,” said Fred Ode, CEO/chairman of Foundation Software. “To make this list three out of three times — to complete the hat trick — I think puts us among a small class of companies that are able to outperform year after year in big ways.”

Foundation registered 72% growth over five years in the first Crain’s list and 106% the following year. Only six other Crain’s 52 companies have qualified all three times. Eligible companies must be privately held, be at least five years old, have posted at least $2 million in revenue the prior year and not have experienced more than a year of decline over five years.

Ode credits his employees for these accomplishments. “Consistent growth comes from employees who consistently overachieve, and that belongs to all the departments in our company,” he commented. ”Awards like this, and a track record like this, are only possible because of the quality of people we have here.”

This year has seen the company earn several other repeat honors, including places among The Plain Dealer’s “Top Workplaces,” the Northcoast 99, the Weatherhead 100 and the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing private companies in the U.S.

Foundation Software develops and supports job cost accounting and project management software for the construction industry. Its flagship program is FOUNDATION construction accounting software, available on premise, on the cloud and with mobile tools. For more information, call (800) 246-0800 or email Email Contact.
