he current competitive and global business landscape demands that technology play an integral part in short and long-term strategies for companies. The challenge that many business owners and managers face is keeping up with various technology strategies, applications and systems and overall trends that assist with operationalizing their company’s mission, products and services. Sometimes keeping the doors open and managing growth is hard enough! Any modern organization that has growth in its business model must invest in and leverage technology to successfully execute its goals. Historically, Frederick County-based businesses have looked to the Baltimore-Washington metropolitan area for the high-level technical expertise required to accomplish this. This meant not only paying metropolitan rates (including travel time), but also slower response times—which often meant that these businesses were “lowest on the totem pole” because of larger metropolitan corporations demanding top resources from service providers.

exceptional customer experiences to more than 500 businesses in Western Maryland, Central Pennsylvania and the West Virginia Panhandle region, including clients with headquarters and branch offices in Frederick County and in eastern areas. Frederick County businesses can now get the best of both worlds: an agile, high-touch, locally-owned business with the expertise and capabilities of a large Baltimore-Washington metropolitan firm. Innovative’s Frederick office has experienced tremendous growth over these last two years, something that Cory Moskowitz, vice president of sales, said coincides with the Frederick market in general. A native of Frederick, Moskowitz describes the growing city as “up and coming and evolving. Frederick has started to merge small-town with a metropolitan vibe, resulting in a very unique market.” The technology industry is evolving and
growing too, which only validates Innovative’s growing presence in the Frederick region. Moskowitz is seeing a shift occurring in the market; more people will be accessing Innovative’s brand of strategic services and proactive approaches instead of reactive, break fix, and other lower value propositions. Innovative Inc. focuses on strategy, experience, and technology—specifically in that order. “When we focus on strategic long-term goals first, and fully deliver on those strategies with our highly experienced team next, technology is simply along for the ride,” he said. Business owners, CEOs, and other high-level decision makers now have a local resource that can strategically leverage technology to assist them with growing their Frederick County businesses. “Focus on what you do best, we’ll handle the rest,” Moskowitz said. 2100 Old Farm Drive, Suite C Frederick 21702 240-578-4127 innovativeinc.net
