PRESIDENT’S CORNER: A BANNER YEAR

WOW!  Can you believe another year has gone by?  It seems like just yesterday I was sitting down to write the first President’s Corner of 2016.

2016 was another banner year for SIGMADESIGN. Not only did we have our best year ever with respect to revenues but we grew from 137 folks on the roster to 181. It seemed like work was one continuous interview as we strove to add the best folks possible to the team. Not only did we add folks to the team, we also brought in several new strategic clients. I really wish I could tell you more about the cool projects we have been working on but confidentiality keeps our lips sealed. Take my word for it, we are a part of some very neat technology that will be shifting the paradigm in several markets.

Also, we experienced several significant changes at SIGMADESIGN. A reorganization created an Executive Team to add more focus to the strategic direction of the company, and the Leadership Team was given a more internally and tactically focused mission. All of this was done in order to better execute on our future goals.

In August, we purchased a 56,000 square foot building on the east side of the county. The renovation is underway with a target move in date of May. The new building will allow us to consolidate our three downtown locations under one roof and provide much needed space for expansion. This is a huge investment that we are undertaking to better serve our clients. You can follow the progress by reading our newsletter, blog or checking out our Facebook page.

 

We continue to have a laser focus on our mission: Be the best Product Development services company in the world by offering solutions from Concept through Production for our clients.

 

I personally wish everyone a prosperous 2017.  May all the challenges it brings be met with enthusiasm.
