HMC Group’s president Tom Hartel received an MBA from the University of Chicago Graduate School of Business after completing a rigorous, data-centric program. His hands-on, real-world experience in accounting, finance, and general economics further honed his exceptional ability to identify areas where a business was exposed to unacceptable risk, unrecognized costs and expenses, and regulatory non-compliance. During his career, Tom has successfully:

  • Expanded a company’s business into four additional states and obtained appropriate licenses in any state that required it.

  • Closed highly lucrative construction contracts using creative and unique marketing strategies.

  • Adequately staffed his companies and maintained exceptionally low turnover rates, even during economic ups and downs and severe labor shortages.

  • Achieved some of the highest safety metrics in the Chicago area and earned the lowest available construction bonding rate premiums.

Over the years, Tom also has connected with a network of talented professionals possessing expertise across the entire spectrum of business issues. The HMC Group draws on that expertise whenever the need arises.
