The Fast 500 list is compiled from Deloitte's 15 regional North American Fast 50 lists, nominations submitted directly to the Fast 500, and public company database research. To qualify for this year's Fast 500, entrants must have had 2000 operating revenues of at least $50,000 and 2004 revenues of at least $1 million. The 2005 Fast 500 rankings are based on the percentage revenue growth over five years, from 2000-2004.
