When the economy went south, Enmark Systems found a way to swim against the recessionary tide and keep its business afloat.

The Ann Arbor-based software firm is still holding stead at about 30 people and expects to hire another person or two within the next few weeks. The 26-year-old company has managed to do that by selling its software as a way for businesses to save money in tough times.

"Our work has not diminished," says John Bilek, president of Enmark Systems. "It's stabilized as the company grows. We have definitely seen an uptick in the last year or two."

Enmark Systems develops new software products for metal service center distributors, finding a way to combine the new economy with Michigan's more established companies. It is moving toward a software-as-a-service model for its product, allowing it to move more toward supporting its system instead of focusing on installing it.

"Our growth looks solid around that platform," Bilek says.
