LOUISVILLE, KY, Aug 21, 2008 - Inc. Magazine today ranked Advanced Solutions, Inc. as the number one Autodesk VAR on its annual publication of the 5,000 fastest-growing private companies in the US. Advanced Solutions was ranked overall in the top 40% at number 1,980.

The list is the most comprehensive look at what many consider to be the most important segment of the economy – America’s independent-minded entrepreneurs. Taken as a whole, these companies represent the backbone of the U.S. economy.

“Our second annual Inc. 5000 continues the most ambitious project in business journalism,” said Inc. 5000 Project Manager Jim Melloan. “The Inc. 5000 gives an unrivalled portrait of young, underreported companies, across all industries, doing fascinating things with cutting-edge business models, as well as older companies that are still showing impressive growth.”

President and CEO Michael Golway stated, “I am pleased to see that the continued investment our employees and our Autodesk Partners have made in the last three years, translates into a top ranking among some of the country’s best privately held businesses. This success has come from having top talent in place to execute on an aggressive, but deliberate business plan.”

The 5,000 companies that made the list reported aggregate revenue of $185 billion and median three-year growth of 147 percent. Most important, the 2008 Inc. 5000 companies were engines of job growth, having created more than 826,033 jobs since those companies were founded. Complete results of the Inc. 5000, including company profiles and a list of the fastest-growing companies that can be sorted by industry and region can be found at www.inc5000.com.

About Inc. 5000 list

The Inc. 5000 is ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2004 through 2007. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by the first week of 2004, and therefore able to show four full calendar years of sales. Additionally, they have to be U.S.-based, privately held, for profit, and independent -- not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies -- as of December 31, 2007 (a number of companies on the list have gone public or been acquired since that date). Revenue in 2004 must have been at least $200,000, and revenue in 2007 must have been at least $2 million. One company, Sourcentra, provided updated revenue figures that qualified it for the Inc. 500 after the Inc. 500 issue had gone to press; the company has since been added to the list. Full-time and part-time employees are included in the head count; independent contractors are excluded.
