Inc. Magazine Ranks Revel Consulting as Fastest Growing Business in Washington State

BELLEVUE, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Revel Consulting, a Bellevue, Washington based business and IT consulting firm, was recently named as the fastest growing private company in Washington State and the 48^th fastest in the nation by Inc. magazine. Revel experienced over 3,000 percent growth in revenue from 2004 to 2007, with current revenues now exceeding $15 million. The recently released Inc. Top 5000 lists also ranked Revel as the 5^th fastest growing “Business Services” firm nationwide.

“I’m proud that we’ve been recognized on this list of amazing companies”

“I’m proud that we’ve been recognized on this list of amazing companies,” said Revel President and Founder Joseph Sedmak. “It is a testament to our unique approach to consulting and the quality of our results.”

Revel was founded by Sedmak, Vikas Kamran, and Brett Alston with the desire to reinvent the traditional “Big 4” consulting culture. They created what they call “Pure Consulting”, which reduces layers of bureaucracy typical of large firms to provide clients with on-site senior industry experts to drive projects and achieve results. Critical to Revel’s success has been their ability to attract high caliber consultants by offering project variety, intellectual challenge, localized projects, work-life balance, and industry-leading compensation packages.

“We believe this is just the start for us,” said Vikas Kamran, Revel’s Co-Founder. “Our firm is very excited to be named at the top of this list, but we also know that there is more room for growth and more clients to engage with. This recognition helps to establish us as a leader in the new breed of consulting firms.”

Revel’s fast growth has come from engagements with Fortune 500 companies such as Microsoft, Safeco Insurance, Starbucks and AT&T. The firm’s core disciplines include program & product management, change management, process engineering, sales & market management, and strategy development. Revel’s skyrocketing growth has recently taken its presence beyond the Seattle market with the opening of a San Francisco area office in May 2008.
