Inc. magazine said LBA Ware, provider of a leading automated compensation and sales performance management platform for mortgage lenders, is ranked 3,466 on the publication’s annual Inc. 5000 list. The Inc. 5000 list is the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. The list provides a unique look at the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment – independent small businesses.

LBA Ware, a member company in the Advanced Technology Development Center’s ATDC Signature portfolio, is the only Macon-based company to make the list this year.

“Our escalating growth is reflective of mortgage lenders’ growing desire to automate the tedious, time-consuming task of manual commission calculations and harness their data for shrewd decision-making,” said LBA Ware Founder and CEO Lori Brewer. “We are honored to be listed on the Inc. 5000 and look forward to future years of continued growth.”

LBA Ware’s debut on the Inc. 5000 comes on the heels of the company’s recent announcement that it closed the second quarter of 2019 having completed $3,622,659,995 in lifetime calculations of loan originator commissions and operational bonuses through its flagship sales incentive platform, CompenSafe.

“The companies on this year’s Inc. 5000 have followed so many different paths to success,” says Inc. editor in chief James Ledbetter. “There’s no single course you can follow or investment you can take that will guarantee this kind of spectacular growth. But what they have in common is persistence and seizing opportunities.”
