The Inc. 5,000 is an extension of Inc. magazine’s annual 500 list. It finds businesses that are too big to grow at the pace required to make the Inc. 500, as well as a host of smaller firms.

“We are honored to be recognized among the cream of U.S. small businesses,” Lawrence Behr, CEO of LBA Group, said. “We attribute our success and this notable achievement to the positive attitude, talent and aggressive bent of our employees.”

The list features a profile for each company, mostly based on interviews with management. And, it is searchable according to numerous criteria including industry, city, state, region, and year founded.

Methodology was based on revenue growth measurement from 2003 through 2006. As of December 31, 2006, to qualify, companies had to be U.S.-based and privately held, independent – not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies -and have had at least $200,000 in revenue in 2003, and $2 million in 2006.
