Case Study: Morrison Supply Company Delivers Its First CIO with Pearson Partners International

Morrison Supply Company - Customer Case Study

Morrison Supply Company, a major plumbing and HVAC distributor, faced an urgent leadership need after Advent International’s investment signaled aggressive growth plans. To build a strong technology foundation for expansion, Morrison needed to quickly hire its first CIO/VP of Information Services. Morrison Supply Company selected Pearson Partners International for executive search support.

Pearson Partners International launched a nationwide search, quickly identified more than a dozen qualified candidates, and helped Morrison narrow the field to four finalists. The search was completed in fewer than 90 days, resulting in the hire of Joe Lacik, former CIO/SVP of Information Services at Aviall Services. Within three months, he had assessed Morrison’s IT environment and presented strategic recommendations to the board, giving the company a clear technology roadmap for future growth.
