SmartCEO Selects Arc Aspicio as Industry Star Finalist

Washington, DC, September 27, 2016 — Washington SmartCEO magazine named Arc Aspicio as one of its finalists for the 2016 GovStar Awards. Arc Aspicio is among four other notable finalists in its category, Small Business Industry Star. This award recognizes government consulting firms that have made significant contributions to the industry through mentoring, business partnerships, philanthropy, and advocacy.

An independent committee of local business leaders selects 45 finalists. The committee then selects 15 winners from that pool to receive the GovStar Awards each year. The winners of all the awards are selected because of their technology innovation, workplace environment, growth, veteran support, and their impact on the competitive contracting industry.

“The GovStar Awards honor companies that make incredible contributions within their industry as compared to their peers, and we are privileged to be among them,” said Lynn Ann Casey, CEO founder of Arc Aspicio. “I am grateful to our clients and our hard working employees that have helped our company grow and improve so that we could achieve this amazing award.”

Lynn Ann founded Arc Aspicio in 2004, and since then, the business has quickly grown to become a trusted information technology and management consulting firm in the Washington D.C. area. The company was previously recognized by the GovStar awards in 2014.

On November 21, 2016, Washington SmartCEO magazine will host an event at the Hyatt Regency Reston in Virginia to celebrate the finalists and announce the winners of the awards. Washington SmartCEO’s November / December issue will contain profiles on all of the finalists.
