Page 2 of 6 Formed in 1996 by founder and President DJ Penix, Pinnacle Solutions’ mission is to empower clients to analyze and interpret the “mountain” of data that they collect and utilize to run their department, division, or company. Pinnacle Solutions adopted the SAS system, one of the most prominent analytic and reporting tools since the late 1970s, as the primary programming language for development of custom analytic applications.Pinnacle Solutions’ focus from day one has been the life sciences market. The earliest projects delivered by the company’s consultants involved development of SAS-based applications for clinical trials data analysis and reporting at Eli Lilly and Company. Pinnacle Solutions also entered the manufacturing sector, creating a custom SAS Internet-based SPC application for manufacturing process improvement at medical device company Roche Diagnostics. As the company completed projects, clients requested additional services. Pinnacle Solutions’ offerings gradually expanded to include all phases of the systems development life cycle (SDLC). In an effort to provide fully documented and validated software, the company created service teams in technical writing and validation & testing. Veteran statisticians were added to the Pinnacle Solutions team to help clients interpret data and to ensure that SAS applications incorporated sound analysis techniques. In 2001, Pinnacle Solutions’ launched the Solutions Development Center as a complete outsourced SAS application development resource for the Midwestern marketplace. In 2004, the Solutions Development Center expanded to encompass project management services as well as to create graphical user interfaces for web and stand-alone products. Today, Pinnacle Solutions is a SAS Silver Alliance Member, a Futrix business partner and continues to expand their offering by now selling SAS software directly to its clients.
