LONGMONT, COLO – May 15, 2007 – Spitfire Group, Inc., a professional consultancy specializing in business and technology strategy/integration received top honors in the Mercury 100 Award Ceremony held at the Boulder Theater on May 9, 2007.

Mark Richtermeyer, President and CEO attributes this achievement to Spitfire’s highly adaptive engagement methodology. “In 2005, Spitfire adopted an ‘agile’ project methodology. This approach has been instrumental in helping us delivery better quality on behalf of our clients.
