Chief executive officer Vernon O'Donnell, a hired CEO rather than a founder, outlined the approach in a conversation with Jon Fortt. Revenue is growing about 110% a year and is heading toward the low $20 million range this fiscal year. Albertsons and Performance Food Group are among its customers. O'Donnell also detailed a newly disclosed acquisition of 3D-simulation engineers. He grew up working-class in Indiana and enlisted at 17 to pay for college.
