 Fastech Services Inc. is a collection of businesses that are
currently operating independently across central Illinois. By
consolidating the operations to one location, Fastech will be able
to add additional companies to their operations, which will result
in more jobs for Logan County.
Fastech Services will begin operations in Lincoln with the
transition of T.A. Brinkoetter and Sons Mechanical Contractors.
Other Fastech companies that may also come to Logan County are Twin
City Controls, RJ Power, Alternatech and the central offices of
Fastech Services.
The primary-sector positions will have pay in the $30,000-$60,000
range. As these and other companies come to the PPG facility, new
hires will be added.
Fastech Services was assisted through the development process by
Joel Smiley and the Lincoln & Logan County Development Partnership.
Sonnie Alexander, managing broker, and Chris Cleeton, agent, of
Coldwell Banker Devonshire Realty in Lincoln recruited Swank
Enterprises to the area in April.
"This was an exciting journey to bring Fastech Services Inc. to
Lincoln," said Smiley, executive director of the development
partnership. "The company will be bringing dozens of primary-sector
positions to the community, which will provide our local retailers
and businesses more customers and increase our tax base."

Alexander, the real estate broker, said: "This project showed the
potential of the new Center of Success business incubator program.
The program shows Logan County's dedication to create a positive
atmosphere for business growth. Because of these indicators, Fastech
Services Inc. decided Lincoln would be its home." Alexander is
co-chair of the program.
