At the beginning of this month,
dbaDIRECT moved into the
Corporex Companies RiverCenter in Covington. The 22,200-square-foot office space includes room for the company’s 73 employees, with room to grow.
The company joins several other high-tech firms, including
TiER1 Performance Solutions, in the RiverCenter office park.
dbaDIRECT’s former location was in Florence, which is a bit further out of the Cincinnati metro area for commuting.
“We chose Covington as the new location for our company because of its geographic location to downtown Cincinnati,” says dbaDIRECT President Ken Roth. “Covington is working to improve its image and reputation, and we wanted to be part of that.”
dbaDIRECT hired 24 graduates of Northern Kentucky University last year, and the company plans to hire 20 new employees in the next 12 months, Roth says.
“We’re looking to continue to provide high-tech jobs in Covington, and bring existing jobs into the area,” he says.
dbaDIRECT provides IT infrastructure management services to financial, retail, health care and education industries. Services include general infrastructure monitoring, database management consulting and performance enhancement services for corporate data environments. dbaDIRECT serves more than 180 clients in 254 data centers over four continents; other office locations include West Chester, India and China.
