CRG was named to the annual Inc. 5000 list, considered one of the most prestigious rankings of the fastest-growing private companies in the U.S. The rankings are based on percentage revenue growth from 2018 to 2021, and companies must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent.
CRG saw 98% growth during this period, despite the coronavirus pandemic and other challenges. As of this year, CRG has been named to this list eight times – 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2015, 2020, and 2022.
According to INC. magazine, the companies on the 2022 Inc. 5000 list have “demonstrated resilience amid supply chain woes, labor shortages and the ongoing impact of Covid-19.”
The Miami Valley area saw 11 companies make this year’s annual list.
Inc. magazine revealed that CRG was one of three Dayton-based businesses to make the Inc. 5000 Regionals: Midwest 2021 list of 250 fastest growing companies. The Midwest region covers a 12-state territory that includes Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wisconsin.
CRG was among the honorees selected for the annual Best Places to Work awards for 2020. The company is now ranked with the best employers of our region. The awards are based on a survey of company employees regarding staff engagement, team effectiveness, manager effectiveness and other workplace best-practices. CRG was nominated within the medium-sized companies group (50-199 employees). A dinner announcing the winners will be held on March 19th.
Applicants are evaluated on six research-based ingredients for an effective workplace: opportunities for learning; a culture of trust; work/life fit; supervisor support for work success; autonomy; and satisfaction with earnings, benefits and opportunities for advancement. These are all factors associated with employee health, well-being and engagement. The winners were recognized at the Dayton Area Chamber of Commerce Board of Trustees meeting on August 22, 2017. 
CRG was named as a finalist for the BBB/s 2015 Eclipse Integrity Awards. These awards are given to Miami Valley businesses and nonprofits that model ethics, honesty and integrity for the community. 
The Dayton Business Journal recently compiled a list of key people in aerospace and defense in the Dayton region, and CRG, Inc. CEO Patrick Hood was on that list.
