Fast 50 nominations now open

The 2019 Fast 50 nomination process is now open, so if you are a fast growing small business and you’ve been in the government market for the past five years now is your chance to grab the spotlight and get the recognition your company deserves.

Click here to see and complete the nomination form. Nominations are due July 26.

The annual Fast 50 program ranks small businesses according to their compound annual growth rate over the last five years. For 2019, we are looking at revenue numbers from 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018.

To qualify you need to have at least $50,000 in government revenue in 2014.

For the Fast 50, government revenue includes subcontracting work, prime contracting work in the federal and state and local markets. Work in the education field qualifies as well.

Companies submit revenue data for the five years and we calculate the CAGR and then companies are ranked accordingly. The due date for nominations is July 26 and we’ll announce the Fast 50 in early September.

It is important to note that when we publish the rankings the revenue data is included. See the 2018 rankings for an example of how the data is presented.

As part of your nomination, we also are asking for information on your business such as capabilities, lines of business, major customers and major contractors. This information will also be published as part of our profiles of each Fast 50 company.

When the Fast 50 is published in September, the package will include the rankings, our analysis of the companies and profiles of several companies.
