What a Difference Almost a Decade Makes

About 8 years ago, Dan and I founded Performance Improvement Partners with a concept: we would provide honest value and exceptional service to the Private Equity Industry. We also had a dream: to one day be considered the best IT Consulting firm we could be. PIP’s success is proof that dreams do come true. We’d like to thank our over 70 fantastic clients, most of whom are mentioned below, for their support and their enthusiasm. We’d also like to assure each and every one of you, that no matter how large PIP becomes, we will never forget how we got here.
