With a three-year growth rate of 102 percent, Carahsoft reported more than $2.8 billion in revenue during 2015, making the company the second largest revenue producer on the entire list of 5,000 companies.

Other Carahsoft highlights for the 2016 list include:

"We are honored to be recognized once again among the nation's fastest growing, privately held firms by Inc.," said Craig P. Abod, President of Carahsoft. "We are extremely proud of the growth that earned us a spot this year. Our longevity on Inc.'s prestigious list demonstrates how dedicated our team is to providing the highest quality service to our government customers, IT solutions vendors, and reseller ecosystem."

"The Inc. 5000 list stands out where it really counts," said Eric Schurenberg, Inc. President and Editor-In-Chief. "It honors real achievement. No one makes the Inc. 5000 without building something great -- usually from scratch. That's one of the hardest things to do in business, as every company founder knows.
