 PROFILE
Century Business Services doesn't want its clients to sweat the small (and not-so-small) stuff. The company provides small and medium-sized clients with outsourced business services, including tax preparation, benefits administration, payroll management, and consulting. Century has over 200 offices in 35 states, Washington, DC, and Toronto. The company has grown rapidly through more than 144 acquisitions of independent service firms, with 35 purchases made in 1999 alone. Digesting those purchases hasn't been easy, prompting the company to slow its acquisition pace (two purchases in 2000). Founder, chairman, and 16% owner Michael DeGroote relinquished the CEO role to Steven L. Gerard in 2000.
