Dear Valued Clients, Partners, and Friends,

For more than 104 years, HKM has had the privilege of serving businesses throughout our community and beyond. As we reflect on our history, we are filled with gratitude for the trust, loyalty, and partnerships that have made our success possible. Quite simply, we would not be here today without you.

It is because of your support that we are excited to share an important milestone in our company’s history.

Effective June 24, 2026, HKM will begin an exciting new chapter by joining forces with Consolidated Solutions, a highly respected industry leader that shares our commitment to exceptional service, innovation, and client success.

As one of the few remaining independent companies in our industry in the Midwest, we recognized an opportunity to combine strengths with another organization that complements our expertise and expands our capabilities. Together, we will significantly increase our capacity, resources, technology, equipment, and service offerings, allowing us to serve our clients better than ever before.

Most importantly, our goal is to ensure a smooth transition for our clients. You will continue to work with many of the trusted professionals you know today, now backed by the expanded resources, technology, and operational capabilities of Consolidated Solutions. Together, we remain committed to delivering the responsive service and trusted partnership that have always been the foundation of our success. In the coming days, members of the Consolidated Solutions team will be reaching out to introduce themselves and provide additional information about the resources and capabilities available to you.

While our name will transition to Consolidated Solutions (www.csinc.com), our commitment to our clients, our culture, and our values remains stronger than ever. Just as important, the relationships you’ve built with your dedicated rep will remain the same and we will continue providing the personalized service and support you have come to expect from HKM. This is not an ending—it is the beginning of an exciting new era. We are incredibly optimistic about the opportunities ahead and look forward to continuing to grow alongside our valued clients and partners.

Thank you for your confidence, loyalty, and support over the past 104 years. We are honored to have been part of your success and look forward to serving you for many years to come. As we begin this next chapter, one thing remains unchanged: Your Success. Our Mission. That promise has guided us for more than a century, and it will continue to guide us as we move forward together.

With sincere gratitude,
Rob Durham & Scott Durham
