COLUMBUS, Ohio, Aug. 30, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Pillar Technology, an industry-leading software consultancy known for solving complex problems through exceptional digital solutions, has been named to the 37th annual Inc. 5000, the prestigious ranking of the nation's fastest-growing private companies. The list represents the most successful, dynamic companies within independent small businesses. Pillar was selected due to its impressive 121 percent growth over the last three years. Pillar is a seven-time Inc. 5000 honoree and this marks the sixth consecutive year that the company has made the list.
"We are extremely proud to be included on the Inc. 5000 for six straight years, and pleased to be recognized for our contribution to one of the most vibrant, fastest-growing segments in the market today, that of small private companies," said Bob Myers, Pillar Technology's CEO. "Executing industry-disrupting opportunities is what fuels us at Pillar. Since our founding, we have shown continuous improvement year over year, largely due to the passion we bring to every project, and our ability to turn ideas into reality at lightning speed. Our talented team of professionals is key to our phenomenal growth, and we applaud the expertise and excellence they employ every day."
Pillar's client work is both innovative and impressive. It includes creating an autonomous vehicle virtual driver for a leading American automaker; enabling precision farming for an international agricultural leader, and building the Smart Columbus Operating System, the data framework at the heart of the smart city movement in Columbus, Ohio. In addition, Pillar has been awarded a grant by JobsOhio to build an autonomous vehicle research and development center in Central Ohio to accelerate advanced mobility efforts. Earlier this month, Accenture acquired Pillar Technology, a move intended to expand its Industry X.0 practice. Industry X.0 helps industrial, high-tech, automotive, energy and utility companies address the shift to digital products and services, transform their engineering, manufacturing and field operations, and digitize their enterprises.
"If a company is on the Inc. 5000, it is unparalleled recognition of the years of hard work and sacrifice," said Inc. Editor-in-Chief James Ledbetter. "The lines of business may come and go, or come and stay. What doesn't change is the way entrepreneurs create and accelerate the forces that shape our lives."
