Magazine, looks at sales increases and pares down the top companies to both the 500 and 5000 top performers. Multiple appearances on Inc. are rare, and this year was particularly competitive. \u201cThe Inc. 5000 was harder to get on to this year than ever in history,\u201d Inc. Magazine reports. \u201cThe median company on the list increased sales more than 140%.\u201d<\/p>\n

Founder and CEO Jon Frank points to committed staff, a high level of expertise and D-Tech as keys to the \"Inc7\"company\u2019s steady decade of growth. In addition to providing a powerful interface for customer site management, D-Tech is the foundation on which DC Group runs. \u201cD-Tech has helped us manage every aspect of our growth. The result is the ability to help more customers without any compromise in response time. It enables us to continue focusing on the quality of our service while managing the rapid growth of our business, our team, and our headquarters,\u201d says Frank.<\/p>\n

To accommodate this brisk growth, DC Group has begun an extensive renovation of their headquarters in Minneapolis. Rather than relocating to a suburban location, DC Group renewed its commitment to the economic development and revitalization of the area where they first opened their doors. The redesigned headquarters will have an additional 25,000 square feet of office\/warehouse. \u201cWe are part of the fabric of our community and so is the expansion,\u201d Frank says. His effort, along with that of city officials and council members to keep the business in the area, was covered in the Star Tribune. \u201cIt\u2019s a positive story about the partnership between the sectors,\u201d Frank said. \u201cWe\u2019re proud that DC Group is a part of it.\u201d[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.21.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.21.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”50px||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.21.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_post_nav prev_text=”Prev” next_text=”Next” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” title_font=”||||||||” title_text_color=”#12AD2B” title_font_size=”20px” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” title_text_color_last_edited=”off|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}” title_text_color__hover_enabled=”on|hover” title_text_color__hover=”rgba(18,173,43,0.7)”][\/et_pb_post_nav][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

At DC Group we\u2019re known for our speedy response times across the U.S. and Canada. Here\u2019s how we do it!<\/p>

First, our field service engineers (FSEs) are full employees, not contractors, and we have hired for a very high level of expertise in our FSE staff\u2014we have more OEM and military experience in our fleet of field service engineers than any other independent service provider. Being employees means that our FSEs have full support and ongoing training at our state-of-the-art training facility. It also means they\u2019re accountable to a boss.<\/p>

We have FSEs in almost every major city, which has cut our average response time in major metro areas to a half hour (our average response time overall holds steady at 2.35 hours). Along with our FSEs, we have strategically located parts hubs. Having the correct parts on hand is crucial to resolving issues quickly, so we keep those parts hubs supplied with OEM-discontinued and rare components as well as the most commonly used and in-demand parts. Additionally, we have two main warehouse locations that manage critical power components inventory and keep everyone stocked up.<\/p>

This map shows the location and number of FSEs in green, parts hubs in orange and our main warehouses in blue.<\/p>

\"\"<\/p>

Batteries are involved in a high percentage of critical power events, and we are relentless about keeping all the most commonly used batteries in stock, including Enersys and CSB.<\/p>

Have any questions about our response time, parts inventory system or FSE staff? Please get in touch<\/a>! We\u2019re always happy to talk about how we can bring you the best critical power maintenance service available.<\/p>
