Mr.
Pardini developed a number of different programs for this machine, including specialized
ones for banking, automotive, and finance and insurance. During the next two years he
became one of the top salesmen in the United States for the product.
In 1977 he formed Data Consultants, Inc. and went to work designing a software product for
the automobile F&I market on a Z80 computer. By January of 1978, he had developed a
real product and went on to sell several systems in the first year. In the next three
years, the computer system and software was such an innovative tool for the auto
dealership, the small company sold almost 300 systems.
In 1982, Mr. Pardini formed a new company to pursue the same market, but with new software
designed around the IBM Personal Computer. Mr. Pardini could see the handwriting on the
wall--PC's were going to become a major factor in the market. His idea was to develop the
best F&I software to run on the soon to be popular IBM PC platform. He continued to
support the old Z80 systems he originally sold, while working on the development of the
new software. By the end of 1984, the development for the IBM PC F&I software was
ready for market. Today Data Consultants is a growing company with over 900 customers in
42 states and Canada, and over 40 employees.
Data Consultants has a full staff of sales, service, support, and development personnel to
