Solving STUFF problems is all we think about
Our history
In 1972, Patterson Business Systems (PBS) set out on a noble quest to help the good people of North Carolina store and organize file folders filled with very important paper.
By 1994, it seemed that paper was winning the battle with local organizations. PBS, now headquartered in Charlotte, fought back with a new ownership group.
As the 20th Century came to a close, PBS planted a flag in Roanoke, as word had come down across the border that paper also had its grips in Virginia.
With the acquisition of J.E. Pope Company in 2004, a new name emerged - Patterson Pope. By adding offices South Carolina, a new front against untamed information was established.
As paper continued its problematic ways, a new culprit entered the scene - STUFF. In response, Patterson Pope opened a 92,000 square-foot facility in Charlotte in 2006 to house our command center.
In 2007, with the acquisition of United Business Systems, the battle against the tyranny of STUFF emerged in Florida.
STUFF was put on notice in Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee and West Virginia in 2011, when Central Business Group was acquired.
Also in 2011, Patterson Pope launched their content services division, FileSolve, to help tame the proliferation of digital STUFF.
The acquisition of Walter Hopkins (in 2012) and Southern Business Systems (in 2013) meant we'd take the fight to STUFF problems in Georgia and Alabama.
In 2020, Patterson Pope became an ESOP – 100% employee-owned business.
Westward expansion in 2021 led to tussles with STUFF in Arkansas and Mississippi.
What will the future hold for Patterson Pope? It's hard to say, but rest assured that as STUFF changes its manner of mischief, we'll be changing our tactics to keep it in line.
Six things that Drive Us
All that passion has to come from somewhere. So what makes us…us? It’s more than just office space (no pun intended) and coffee breaks. We’re powered by a unique mix of expert knowledge, a vibrant culture, and deep-rooted values.
Bottom Line: We’re in it for the long haul, ready to support, innovate, and ensure your projects surpass expectations – to be part of your family (minus the awkward holiday dinners.)
Our Purpose & Our Passion
Think about our creed as our collective brain’s operating system, a set of down-to-earth principles designed to keep us anchored, focused, and ahead of the curve (because who likes being average?)
It’s our version of “how to be awesome at work” – no jargon, just good old-fashioned doing the right thing.
We’re 100% Employee-Owned
Technically, all our staff meetings are ownership conventions. That’s because our Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) means every one of us is an owner.
For us, going the extra mile isn’t extra – it’s expected. Expect us to be on our A-Game, because the buck stops with…well, us!
Giving Back Is in Our DNA
We engage in triple-layered community outreach through our P2 Gives Back program:
Our employees can personally volunteer time for causes close to their hearts; the entire organization volunteers in corporate give-back workdays, and we financially support worthy causes in our community.
Lean mean green machines!
We think about our carbon footprint like it’s a muddy boot in a clean hallway. From local sourcing to innovations that reduce waste, we meticulously select solution providers who prioritize sustainable practices.
When it comes to sustainability, we’re not just talking the talk – we’re walking the walk.
Beyond Hard Hats
Our safety philosophy is simple - safety is essential and non-negotiable. We empower each of our employees to become safety superstars and champions of safe practices.
That’s because a safe environment is a productive environment – and to us, a day without incident is like Patterson Pope poetry in motion.
Elite Solutions to Our Partners
By building deep, lasting connections with everyone involved in our projects we create a community of collaboration.
We partner with best-in-class providers and bringing them to our clients’ doorstep. From there, we mix in our special blend of planning and installation awesomeness, building the foundation for long-term relationships.
So there you have it, the Patterson Pope Universe in a nutshell – equal parts hearts, smarts, and safety charts.
Stick with us, and we’ll do more than just optimize your space. We’ll fill it with innovation and integrity. (And a few good laughs.)
