Quad Plus was founded in 1989 by Ralph Morrison and John Crosetto in Joliet, Illinois. The age mismatched pair, Ralph being 30 years John's senior, sought to challenge themselves and see what they could accomplish.The two bootstrapped the startup by performing service and commissioning work, both domestically and internationally, building a network of clientele. Along the way, many excellent engineers and professionals joined Quad Plus. Their diverse knowledge and dedication contributed to the growth of Quad Plus, eventually becoming a leading international systems integrator.
