Meet Our Team

Founded over 30 years ago, DEC International, Inc. provides vital information to a myriad of users, including Chambers of Commerce, Government Agencies, Utilities, Associations, Private Companies both large and small.

Our story is one of opportunity. Our business is built on providing information that would be difficult and expensive to obtain through other means. We fill a crucial gap that many contractors find between their capacity to do work and the opportunities they have.

This is only possible due to the dedication and expertise of the researchers and market analysts that work to deliver the information our customers have come to count on.
