“We are excited to have teamed up with such an incredible, forward thinking organization like Diverzify,” says Randy Weis, CEO of RD Weis Companies. “We are excited to work with them to build out a services platform, which has been a large part of our own differentiation.”

The connection and collaborative structure of resources uniquely equip Diverzify to solve virtually any commercial flooring challenge from start to finish. Starting with the intellectual capital that comes from assembling a team of best-of-class resources, Diverzify brings unparalleled expertise to every aspects of the commercial flooring spectrum. This expertise is matched with a full array of human, technical, and physical resources required to fulfill exacting customer demands.

“Becker’s partnership with Diverzify is founded on key core values and the vision of a new business model for the commercial flooring industry,” said John Becker, president and CEO of Becker’s. “Our forward investment in technology, talent, equipment and delivery systems is very positive and signals new potential for the future of this industry.”

Diverzify is changing the paradigm of the commercial flooring installation and maintenance company. An estimated 134,000 commercial flooring installation businesses in the United States, most small local or regional service providers servicing a limited geographic area, form the standard industry business model. Lacking scale to invest in sophisticated operation technologies and resources, company growth quickly plateaus, and the business focus shifts to maintaining existing operations. Customer businesses seeking more expansive services, either in terms of geographic location, specific service capabilities, or consultative program leadership, must string together multi-provider solutions that are filled with administrative and service performance inconsistencies and gaps.

“The growth and expansion of customer business models created a service gap for our industry,” said Bill Graves, president of sales for Diverzify. “The depth and scale of our resources, both physical and intellectual, puts us in a perfect place to close those gaps for our customers.”

Structured to provide an advanced core of customer-centric business technologies and capabilities matched with a network of experienced and respected service providers across the country, Diverzify brings a new, scalable full-service commercial flooring business model to the industry. The Diverzify customer-focused experience is vastly different from the traditional provider experience, with consistent administration, new levels of customer insight into project performance, and full-spectrum product, labor, and service capabilities. Diverzify brings cost effective planning, construction and long-term maintenance solutions to businesses of all sizes and across all industries.
