Contract Solutions Inc. named to
Virginia Chamber’s ‘Fantastic 50’ list
 
CHANTILLY, Virginia – A year after being named one of the nation’s fastest-growing companies by INC. Magazine, Contract Solutions Inc. has been celebrated as one of the fastest-growing in the Commonwealth of Virginia.

CSI was recognized at The Virginia Chamber of Commerce’s 23rd annual Virginia’s Fantastic 50 Awards Banquet on April 26.

“We are pleased to recognize the fastest-growing businesses from across the Commonwealth,” said Barry DuVal, president and CEO of the Virginia Chamber. “The Chamber is committed to implementing the strategies outlined in Blueprint Virginia 2025 to make Virginia the best place for businesses to start and to grow so we can have more success stories like we see here tonight. We are glad to toast the entrepreneurial spirit of these Virginia business leaders and the dedicated employees who have brought these companies continued success.”
 The Manassas-based CSI was listed as 37th on the “Fantastic 50” ranking, which is the only annual statewide award recognizing Virginia’s fastest-growing business.
“I’m grateful to God, the CSI team and our clients, as well as friends who have supported me,” said Contract Solutions founder and CEO Corliss Udeoma. “My secret sauce – the three keys to our success and growth – have always been prayer, planning and patience. Excellence is the foundation of our service delivery.”
To be eligible for the Fantastic 50 list, a company must be privately-held with headquarters in Virginia, show revenues between $200,000 and $200 million, and demonstrate positive revenue growth and positive net income in its most recent fiscal year over the previous year. Companies are judged on four-year revenue history.
