DULLES, VA--(Marketwire - August 26, 2009) - Centuria Corporation, a leading provider of professional and technical support services to the U.S. government, today announced it ranked 15th on the 2009 Inc. 500, a nationwide list of the fastest growing privately-owned companies in America. Recording nearly 6000% growth from 2005 to 2008, the company also ranked 2nd in the Government Services Sector listing and 3rd in the Washington, DC metropolitan region.

"Centuria takes great pride in the fact that our successful government implementations have led to our success," said Kevin M. Burke, President and CEO of Centuria. "The company's recent growth awards provided the visibility required to land our two new executives. Centuria is committed to maintaining its high-level of customer satisfaction, which is why I am so pleased to welcome Tim Green and Rich Levine to the team. Their decades of experience are matched by the dedication they have demonstrated to serving government agencies."

Joining Centuria as COO, Tim Green brings more than 20 years of experience in the federal market. In this role, his responsibilities include driving sustainable growth, organizational maturity, service delivery, and customer satisfaction. Before joining Centuria, Green held senior leadership positions at SAIC and Apogen Technologies, a QinetiQ North America Company.

"His experience will be an invaluable asset to the Centuria team."

Rich Levine joins Centuria as CFO. He has served as Senior Vice President and CFO for defense contractors in the engineering services and IT industry, with a history of revitalizing business departments, building new corporate infrastructure, leading acquisitions, and creating strong financials.
