On March 27, 2025, Peerless Technologies Corporation celebrates 25 years in business – growing from a one-person startup in Dayton, Ohio, to more than 400 employees nationwide. Each weekday until March 27, we’re spotlighting one of 25 Peerless employees who exemplify the people who took us from a tiny services company to a leader in R&D, Digital Transformation, Electronic Warfare and much more. Today, meet Dale Napier, Our Chief Financial Officer / Chief Strategy Officer Name: Dale Napier Time with Peerless: 4 years Role at Peerless: Chief Financial Officer / Chief Strategy Officer (CFO/CSO) What do you enjoy most about your job? I enjoy the strategic aspect of the role, where I can influence and help guide the company’s future through financial decisions, market analysis, and forecasting. What are you most proud of in your career so far? (or) What’s one project or achievement you’re particularly proud of? Over the past year, I was part of the leadership team that successfully completed Peerless’s first acquisition which is aligned with the strategic plan of the Enterprise to expand our client base and capabilities in support of electromagnetic spectrum operations. What is one thing that you wish people knew about your job? While financial expertise is crucial, the role of CFO is also about being a strategic partner to the President and the entire leadership team. It involves decisions that drive the company’s long-term growth, managing risks, and ensuring business maintains financial health while also supporting major initiatives such as mergers, acquisitions, and new investments. What’s your favorite part about the company culture? My favorite part of the Peerless culture is that everyone’s contributions are recognized as we support the strategic direction that our federal customers have to meet their mission. The ability to wear multiple hats, share new ideas, take risks, and be a part of shaping the company’s direction.
Dale's leadership was critical to Peerless' closing our first acquisition this year, significantly growing our EW, Open Architecture, and AI capabilities!
