Burnsville, MN (Feb. 3, 2025) – Coordinated Business Systems, Minnesota’s premier independent business technology, solutions, and service provider, headquartered in Burnsville, MN, has been named a 2025 Torch Award for Ethics Finalist by the Better Business Bureau of Minnesota and North Dakota.

“I’m grateful that our company and team has been recognized as a Torch Award Finalist,” said Jim Oricchio, founder and CEO of Coordinated Business Systems. “When Coordinated was founded over 40 years ago, our philosophy was be honest, do not bash the competition, deliver what we promise, and be respectful. This philosophy is in the soul of our team today, because if not for our team behaving this way daily, we would not have received this recognition.”

The Torch Awards for Ethics celebrate businesses that exemplify a steadfast commitment to ethical practices in their interactions with customers, employees, and the community. Finalists are evaluated on pillars such as honesty, transparency, integrity, and accountability. This prestigious award is a testament to a company’s dedication to fostering trust, promoting fairness and setting the gold standard for integrity in the marketplace.

Kirk Studebaker, president of Coordinated Business Systems commented, “Our operating value is ‘Do the Right Thing, Even When No One Is Looking.’ The Torch Award finalist recognition is special because it confirms that we do not just give lip service to our core value, we have always backed it up with consistent action. This honor also illustrates the positive connection, value and benefit our clients experience with their relationship with Coordinated.”

The 2025 finalists will be honored at the BBB Torch Award for Ethics Luncheon from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on April 24 at The Club at Golden Valley, Minnesota. The winners will be announced live during the event.
