Honored by local Chamber of Commerce

Absolute Consulting was established in 1997 with a goal of providing technical and consulting services to organizations in the nuclear industry. Today, the company continues to attract top-notch consultants and professionals in the energy industry while expanding into various other industries. Our continuous growth is noted by milestones and accomplishments throughout the years.

In the early years, new clients were won and supported such as Indian Point, Oyster Creek, DC Cook and Cooper Nuclear Station. Along with a growing client base, the company expanded its list of services to meet the needs of its clients. Our commitment to our clients is evident in the fact that we still serve our very first client, even after all of these years.

The year 2002 was a record breaker as Absolute Consulting received its first multi-million dollar procedure services contract. By 2003, its client list hit the mark of 20 for the first time.

Rick, "King of the Slab"

The following year, however, presented unique challenges as Navarre, Florida was devastated by a Category 4 hurricane named Ivan. This storm affected a 100-mile area, including local infrastructures. Being displaced due to the storm’s destruction, Absolute Consulting continued its work including completing a scheduled payroll. At Absolute Consulting, we live by our motto, “We find a way!”

In 2005, the company expanded its office space and infrastructure to keep pace with the company’s growth. Company earnings reached $10 million during that year. In October 2006, Absolute Consulting began work on its first international assignment in the United Kingdom.

Celebrating 10 Years

The company marked its 10th anniversary in 2007 with an honor from the Chamber of Commerce and later won a major, multi-year, multi-site procedure upgrade project.

Growth continued for Absolute Consulting and by January 2008, the company had hundreds of field professionals assigned in the different regions of the United States. In June, Absolute Consulting was the proud recipient of the 2007 Top Supplier of the Year Award during the 3rd Annual Guidant Group Supplier Conference.

The future looks positive and exciting with renewed interest in clean energy. We look forward to serving our customers (clients and candidates) as we continue to expand and grow. We feel certain that with continued hard work and dedication, we will be in an ideal position to provide our value-added services to both current and new customers.
