โ€œStaying in the Oak Creek area was vitally important to the founder of Report Exec, Sean Mars,โ€ said Nick Kehoe, Report Exec president. โ€œSeanโ€™s career began in Oak Creek as a police officer, so being able to bring this business into the city where it all started really just made a lot of sense.โ€

Formerly known as Competitive Edge Software, Report Exec was founded in 1995. The company currently has 55 employees and will operate from 13,000-square-feet at 7625 S. Howell Ave. The facility was once home to the Oak Creek Police Department.

โ€œReturning to this building means everything to (Mars),โ€ Kehoe said. โ€œTo come back where it all started is very specialโ€

Mars purchased the building in May for $1.05 million, according to state records. The property has an assessed value of $906,900, according to county records.

The Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation is supporting the move and expansion with up to $170,000 in tax credits over three years for the creation of 30 new jobs. The actual amount of the credits will depend on the number of jobs created.

โ€œReport Execโ€™s story underscores WEDCโ€™s commitment to providing Wisconsin entrepreneurs with the resources they need to launch and grow their businesses,โ€ said Tricia Braun, deputy secretary and chief operating officer of WEDC. โ€œOur investments in Wisconsinโ€™s entrepreneurial ecosystem help set the trajectory for startups to scale new heights similar to what Report Exec has achieved.โ€
