Each year, Atlanta Business Chronicle celebrates the leaders of Atlanta’s fastest-growing privately held companies with the Pacesetters Award. The companies selected have been deemed to have forged the way in their respective industry. Those leading these organizations make key decisions every day to take their business and employees to the next level. EDS, a leading human capital management company and staffing solutions agency, is fortunate enough to be named one of the few chosen companies to receive this award—now two years running.
As part of the Top 10 at the 2024 Pacesetter Awards, EDS was honored to be featured in Atlanta Business Chronicle’s article on strategies for successful, fast-growing companies. Our CEO, Sonya Locke, voices, “Our management pool is the most important thing to us. We don’t chase profits. Profits come when we do a good job, and we maintain being the very best at what we do. Our goal is to pursue proper operational practices and commit to finding the most efficient and best problem-solving tactics and excellence in labor management and staffing and recruiting. We embrace the principle that ‘together, our collective strength surpasses any individual effort,’ and foster collaboration and mutual support that unlocks boundless possibilities. By placing people at the forefront and continuously honing our expertise in human capital management, we pave the way for organic success to flourish.”
The Atlanta Business Pacesetter Award is given to businesses that not only show significant growth but also have a substantial impact on their industries and communities. EDS Service Solutions was selected due to our exceptional growth in 2023 with a 96% increase in revenue and our astounding outreach initiatives in the communities we serve, employing thousands of people and staffing for dozens of clients. We are continually recognized and praised for exceptional organization and efficiency, but the Pacesetter Award is the cherry on top for being seen as an impactful presence in our communities.
These attributes have opened doors for unparalleled expansion in the industry and emerging markets, where excellence in human capital management solutions, lean labor practices, and outsourced staffing solutions are valued as keys to success. EDS is even more than a staffing company; we are a comprehensive labor staffing agency with expertise in business process outsourcing and workforce management services that drive growth and innovation.
