NEW YORK and AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Inc. today announced that LeanDNA, the leading supply planning and inventory optimization platform, is on the Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America for the fourth year in a row. The list is a data-driven look at the most successful companies within the economy's most dynamic segment—its independent, entrepreneurial businesses.

"LeanDNA offers a powerful solution for the supply side of the shortage-excess inventory paradox plaguing discrete manufacturers, which is an often-underserved area for the supply chain," said Andy Ellenthal, CEO of LeanDNA. "Our platform helps teams unlock the full potential of their operations by optimizing inventory, reducing waste, and uncovering growth opportunities."

LeanDNA improves on-time delivery and working capital by providing a single source of truth for inventory optimization and production readiness. Over the past twelve months, the company has continued to achieve significant milestones, including:

Hosting its first Manufacturing Excellence Summit.
Being named a "Leader" in the Enterprise Grid® Report for Inventory Control and a "Momentum Leader" for Inventory Control and Predictive Analytics in the Spring G2 reports.
Earning a Top Supply Chain Project award and a Partner in Collaboration Manufacturing Leadership Council Award.

"Making the Inc. 5000 is always a remarkable achievement, but earning a spot this year speaks volumes about a company's tenacity and clarity of vision," says Mike Hofman, editor-in-chief of Inc. "These businesses have thrived amid rising costs, shifting global dynamics, and constant change. They didn't just weather the storm—they grew through it, and their stories are a powerful reminder that the entrepreneurial spirit is the engine of the U.S. economy."

Methodology
Companies on the 2025 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2021 to 2024. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2021. They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2024. (Since then, some on the list may have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2021 is $100,000; the minimum for 2024 is $2 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons.
