Fast Enterprises Surpasses 500 Employees, Announces Two Associate Partner Promotions

Government software and consulting services provider Fast Enterprises, LLC (FAST (News - Alert)) recently announced the hiring of its 500^th employee, as well as associate partner promotions for two veteran employees-Dan DeKeyrel, the company's chief financial officer, and Maggie Gleason, a senior FAST project manager.

"We've seen incredible growth since the first implementation of our GenTax^® software for the provincial government of British Columbia in 1999," said Martin Rankin, FAST's managing partner. "As our workforce, product portfolio, and client list continue to expand, we realize the importance of recognizing the talents and contributions of employees like Maggie and Dan."

Denver-based FAST provides commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software solutions for agencies that manage a variety of government programs, such as tax and revenue, driver licensing, vehicle registration, and unemployment insurance. The company, started as a small partnership in 1997, now employs hundreds of consultants, software developers, and other professionals who provide software and services to governments worldwide.

"Hitting the 500^th employee mark is a significant achievement for FAST," said Jennifer Tuvell, a FAST partner. "Maggie's and Dan's hard work and dedication were contributing factors to helping us reach this milestone."

DeKeyrel and Gleason have over 25 years of combined experience with FAST. DeKeyrel, a certified public accountant, was hired by FAST in 2000 nd began working as an accountant at the company's second project site in Boise, Idaho. Gleason joined FAST after graduating from college and has served in multiple project management and support roles during her nearly 12 years with the company.

"Right out of college, FAST provided me with a challenging and exciting career," said Gleason. "The culture of professional support and growth is fantastic, and I've had the opportunity to play a meaningful role in the successful implementation of our software for governments around the world," she said. "I can't imagine working anywhere else."

DeKeyrel shares Gleason's enthusiasm for FAST and for the opportunities the company provides to its employees.

"You'd be hard pressed to find a company that has higher ethical standards or does more for its employees," said DeKeyrel. "Our goal is always to deliver successful software and services to our government clients, and employees who work hard to achieve this goal are recognized and rewarded," he said. "I'm proud to be part of such a great organization."
