Principles

FARRAGUT is built upon three principles that serve as a universal and timeless guide in our relationships with our customers and our people.

Integrity — We strive to be truthful, to be clear, and to not mislead.

Practical Innovation — We proactively seek improvement through change, growth, and development.

Service Mindedness — We have the desire and commitment to help our customers and our people achieve their objectives.

Our Culture

FARRAGUT is a living company that is built to outlive its founders and last 100 years or more. Our culture reflects the following living company traits:

Awareness of Identity
We provide a principled-based, value-driven work environment. Although we have diverse backgrounds, our common principles and desire to excel unify us. As a company, we know who we are and we know who we are not.

Tolerance of New Ideas
The challenges of large and complex projects demand innovative thinking. We hire intelligent, inquisitive people and challenge them to expand their understanding by thinking and acting in new ways. As a company, we see learning as a continuous process and welcome new ideas. As our customers' needs and technologies change, our flexibility enables us to provide practical new solutions.

Wise Use of Resources
We maintain zero debt, zero VC funding and zero exit strategies. We focus our financial resources on people, processes, and technologies. We value long-term investment over short-term gains. Our goal is continuous improvement.

Sensitivity to the World Around Us
We proactively maintain a "mindfulness" of the world around us so that we can sense and respond to internal and external events that merit action. We anticipate the needs of our customers, our people, and our community. When new needs arise, we react from a position of knowledge and strength.
