Congratulations TAG!

Business Tennessee released its annual Business Tennessee Fast50, ranking TAG (The Access Group) as one of the fastest-growing private companies in Tennessee. Charles Hagood, a co-founder of TAG, is an alumnus of our MBA program here at Belmont. (I ran a profile of TAG a few months ago).
The ACCESS Group works with a variety of Fortune 500 companies throughout North America and Asia in providing a variety of engineering, project management, plant relocation, facility startup and consulting services. TAG also provides A/E and design services to industry via TAG Design Services, LLC and recently began providing Healthcare related consulting services targeting cost reductions, quality improvement, and efficiency improvements through its new subsidiary, Healthcare Performance Partners, LLC.
TAG has been honored on multiple occasions as a Tennessean newspaper Future 50 company including 2003, Business of the Year by the Chamber of Commerce in 2001, as well as the 12th fastest growing small business in middle Tennessee by Business Nashville magazine in 2002.
“The 2005 Business Tennessee Fast50 surely reflects the diversity of industry that is so beneficial to our state,” said David A. Fox, editor of Business Tennessee magazine. “These companies are showing what entrepreneurial drive amid a good business climate can accomplish. Many of these businesses are destined to be Tennessee’s biggest employers and publicly traded corporations of tomorrow.”
