Inc 500

By Rich Smith, 04-30-2017

Back in September, Atlas received a little recognition and I think it’s important to share that with all of you. After all, without you it couldn’t have happened. Every year, Inc. magazine ranks the fastest growing privately held companies in the country. Based on our growth, we received the following recognition:

46rd Overall Fastest Growing Company in the Country Fastest Growing Staffing Company in the Country Fastest Growing Company in Nebraska

My first thought was to all of you, our nurses working in the hospitals every day. We are nothing without you. We made this list because of you. Your loyalty, your hard work, your dedication to your profession. If I could thank each and every one of you in person I would. Here are a few more details about the list:

• Atlas MedStaff was named to the Inc. 500/5000 list of Fastest Growing Private Companies for 2016 (cite: http://www.inc.com/profile/atlas-medstaff?cid=full500016-list-46) The list is published each September by Inc. Magazine.
• Atlas MedStaff ranked number 46 overall on the 2016 list.
• Fastest growing staffing company in the country for 2016.
• Fastest growing company in Nebraska for 2016
• Atlas MedStaff ranks as the fastest growing staffing company in Nebraska since the Inc 5000 started in 1982.
• Atlas MedStaff ranks as the fifth fastest growing company in Nebraska in the history of the Inc 5000.
• All companies on the 2016 list grew an average of 1580% since the start of 2012.
• Atlas MedStaff has grown 5229% since 2012.
• Previous members of the Inc. 500 include Microsoft, Pandora, LivingSocial, Paypal, Fitbit, and many other well-known companies to whose achievements the Inc. 500 provided early exposure.
• The 2016 Inc. 500 is ranked according to percentage revenue growth when comparing 2012 to 2015. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2012. Additionally, they had to be U.S.-based, privately held, for profit, and independent.

While all this is awesome, it doesn’t change anything. We are still who we are. We still operate the same today as we did before this list was published. If anything, getting recognized like this will ground us even more. We’ll make this list next year, and the year after that. And we’ll still be the same company with the same morals and values.
