CHICAGO, IL, Oct. 10, 2012 – Diversified Management Enterprises, Inc. (d/b/a DMEtek) today announced it has been named to the Ingram Micro SMB 500. Unveiled at the Ingram Micro 2012 “Turn the Tables” Fall SMB Invitational in Rancho Mirage, Calif., the inaugural list celebrates the top 500 fastest-growing Ingram Micro U.S. channel partners focused on small and midsize businesses (SMBs). Ranked at number 200, DMEtek grew its business with Ingram Micro by more than 174 percent growth between June 2009 and June 2012.

Developed in collaboration with Ingram Micro’s Business Intelligence Center and U.S. SMB Business Unit, as well as channel research services firm The 2112 Group, the Ingram Micro SMB 500 list was derived from the more than 20,000 U.S. solution providers and MSPs who work with Ingram Micro’s U.S. SMB Business Unit. Those channel partners named to the list demonstrated a consistent, average three-year growth rate of more than 200 percent.

“We are extremely honored to be ranked #200 from a pool of over 20,000 solution providers. Receiving the SMB 500 award from the world’s largest technology distributor enhanced DMEtek’s reputation and brought recognition to our team, our product and services portfolio and provided continued validation of our company to the industry,” says Tracey Lassiter-Levy, vice president and cofounder of DMEtek.
