About Flagship:

Flagship Management offers a turnkey solution designed to manage physical therapy, medical and luxury fitness, and biomedical equipment through the unit life cycle: equipment sales, world-class delivery and installation, preventative maintenance, electrical safety inspections, calibrations, field and bench repairs, re-upholstery, logistical services, and data analytics to enable smarter business decisions.

We sell, service and analyze 'mission critical', revenue-generating healthcare capital equipment for physical therapy and other healthcare companies with a strong emphasis on rehabilitation equipment. We have established and grown relationships with many of the industry-leading, nationally operating physical therapy companies. We deploy a total cost of ownership methodology by collecting and analyzing data about the equipment to enable optimal business decisions.

We streamline the service procurement process of our clients by being the one-stop-shop, single vendor that fulfills the capital equipment purchasing and maintenance/repair needs of our clients while providing strong compliance with HIPAA and other regulatory requirements of our physical therapy clients. We service capital healthcare equipment for four of the top five physical therapy companies in the US and have the capability to service equipment for our clients nationwide.

Flagship is a Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) and is certified by the Department of Veteran Affairs through its Center for Verification and Evaluation (CVE) office. Our social mission is to create jobs for military veterans to decrease the veteran dependency on the federal government and mitigate many of the societal problems that plague the veteran community, and the majority of our service technicians are US military veterans. We believe that it is the private sector's civic duty to employ military veterans, invest in their growth, and to operate in a way that is reflective of the characteristics of our military. Future generations will only volunteer to serve in the armed forces if they see their parents and grandparents playing a productive role in society after service.

Our mission is best captured in our Three Beliefs:

1) We believe our customers play a critical role in society;

2) We believe our customers deserve the highest level of service; and

3) We believe, among all of the competitors in the market, we are most capable of providing the highest level of service
