Forgive us if our hair is a mess. Or if you catch us wearing a neck brace. It's just that we've been on a wild ride for the past few years. Inc. 5,000 just put us on their 2007, 2008, and 2009 lists of fastest growing private companies. And we were recently named to CRN's prestigious FastGrowth100 for the third year in a row. Why? We're glad you asked...
It's easy for words like "integrity" and "sincerity" to sound, well ... insincere these days. That's too bad. Especially since those are the two words that best describe our corporate culture. We live and breathe integrity in all things. In fact, our company mascot is not your average dancing chicken with a rotund papier-mâché head. It's a word: genuine. Just what you'd look for in a friend (in this case, a ridiculously smart and helpful friend). Our unique, relaxed style has made for exceptionally low turnover here at OST. Call it our midwest sensibility. Call it our old school work ethic. Whatever the case, you'll be happy you called.
Don't let our "aw shucks" client relation philosophy fool you. We run with the big dogs when it comes to technical prowess. We've earned due respect in the industry, yet we're still small enough to stay responsive. And respond we have, working our magic on-site in countries like the UK, Singapore, UAE (Dubai), Canada, China (Hong Kong), Italy, Japan, India, Mexico, and Germany. We're easy to do business with, too, signing virtually all our contracts without modification. We use common sense and always stand behind our word. That makes for fewer headaches, and more headway.
The smartest thing we've ever done? Hire the smartest people. We call them "one percenters." See, you put 99 random Oracle database administrators (DBA's) in a room together with our top DBA, and we can pretty much guarantee our guy will be the best of the bunch. And we've got a one percenter for every category of need: Systems Monitoring, Master SAN Architecture, Blade Systems Architecture and Design, ERP Application Development Oversight, Interim CIO, Virtualization and Virtual Desktop, and Large Data Center Systems Architecture for Availability and Disaster Recovery. These folks aren't just your everyday geeks, they're ubergeeks. It's our hiring policy. Now our team of bright thinkers is ready to put their smarts to work for you.
The sharpest minds in the industry. A wide breadth of expertise. A proven track record of big picture thinking among the biggest corporate players. All of the above plus, we're genuine, likable people you can trust. Yes, we'd like your business, but more importantly, it's your confidence that means the most to us. And we'd like to earn it for the long haul.
