Ken Terrell

President

Kenneth Terrell has, in many ways, spent his professional life building T5. From the moment he left college and started out in business, Ken found his gift was in bringing together great teams of professionals and leading them to grow both personally and collectively as they placed innovation and client satisfaction as consistent goals. In 1996, Ken began his entrepreneurial path with his first business. In 2002, it was acquired by a larger company that tasked Ken with overseeing the integration of his company into the new company. One of the primary tasks was assisting with implementing a PDA base software program for the sales division.

In 2006, Ken was able to incorporate his lifelong interest in machinery by moving into industrial sales. As a sub-rep for PPE, Ken sold PDMA, SDT Easy Laser, DMSI, DFT, KPM, Sick and other products. Ken was trained and certified in the reliability equipment aspect of the field and went on to help implement this new technology in multiple locations.

In 2014, Kenneth branched off from PPE and launched his new venture, T5 Group, LLC focusing on DMSI implementation across the United States as well as a DMSI REP which territory runs from North Carolina to Maine. Ken has clients that run the gamut from small businesses to large companies and that provided him with an opportunity to understand the unique challenges of different plants.
