One of the favorite words the leadership at Stout Systems likes to use is flexibility. The company is building some solid growth numbers around that word.
"We call ourselves technology agnostic," says John W Stout, president and founder of Stout Systems. "We don't align ourselves with just one system or vendor."
That has allowed the Ann Arbor-based firm to make a dozen new hires, including some recent college graduates, over the last year. The 16-year-old company's staff now stands at 30 employees and the occasional intern. The headcount is up from 25 since we checked in with the company last summer. Plans are afoot to hire another dozen people in 2010.
The software development firm specializes in everything from helping firms with technical staffing, such as computer programmers or project managers, to creating smart phone applications. It's also expanding into the business intelligence sector as it grows beyond Ann Arbor and Michigan.
"We've developed a national reach," Stout says.
