Waukesha, WI – July 3, 2014 – Milwaukee Business Journal released its selection of 31 winners for
2014’s Fastest Growing Firms in Southeastern Wisconsin. The award recognizes organizations who
have experienced significant growth over the past three years, with annual revenue between $3
million and $500 million. As a global organization, SoftwareONE has averaged a 40% Year-over-Year
growth since 2006 with annual revenue increasing from $520M in 2009 to $3.3B in 2013.
“SoftwareONE’s US subsidiary headquartered in Waukesha, WI has spear-headed many of
SoftwareONE’s global initiatives, namely the rollout of our Software Portfolio Management (SPM)
consultative methodology,” said Bryan Poerio, SoftwareONE’s Vice President of US Operations.
“Our customer-oriented SPM methodology acts as the catalyst for the continuing growth of the US
subsidiary in terms of both market share and employee head count.”
SoftwareONE was founded in 1985 as a Large Account Reseller (LAR) focused strictly on software
licensing. Licensing remains the core of SoftwareONE’s Software Portfolio Management
methodology, ensuring customers’ software and Information Technology (IT) goals are strategically
roadmapped from a commercial, compliance, and technical perspective.
In order to accommodate this expanded methodology, SoftwareONE has grown from its original 5
employees, and is now approaching 2,000 certified technology professionals across the globe.
SoftwareONE’s US subsidiary is leading this growth, with opportunities opening for sales personnel
passionate about software and IT advisory services.
The 2014 winners will be recognized in the Milwaukee Business Journal’s August 15 edition, with an
awards luncheon planned for the same day in downtown Milwaukee at the Pfister Hotel.
