BOULDER - Rally Software Development Corp. will relocate its
headquarters within Boulder, the software company announced Tuesday.
Rally Software plans to lease a 65,645-square-foot building at 3333
Walnut St. and move in by February. Rally was founded in Boulder in
2002. It moved to 61,145 square feet of space at 4001 Discovery Drive in
September 2008.
"Ultimately our business achievements result from deep collaboration
among our staff, as well as a dedication to positive customer
interactions," said Tim Miller, Rally's chief executive, in a prepared
statement. "We're involving employees and customers in the process of
designing the new office space at Walnut Street to create a place where
employees, customers, partners and members of the community feel
comfortable sharing ideas and opinions."
The building on Walnut Street will be home to Agile University, a
training center offering courses that help organizations customize Agile
practices and integrate them into their operations.
Rally offers software development tools. The tools help developers
manage their software-development projects through a method known as
Agile. Developers can track tests, requirements and defects of the
software they are working on in real time.
Nebraska-based design firm DLR Group will work with Rally's staff to design the workplace.
Boulder real estate firm Acquire negotiated the lease on behalf of
Rally. Paige Coker Heiman, president and managing broker, said, "Boulder
continues to have the right mix of ingredients to serve as an
entrepreneurial haven for high tech. We were especially excited that
Acquire found Rally a large enough space in Boulder to accommodate the
fast growth of one of the city's key technology employers - and one of
Boulder's biggest successes."
Rally employs more than 200 people worldwide. It has more than 20
positions open in engineering, information technology, professional
services, sales, marketing and administration.
Rally recently expanded its offices in Raleigh, North Carolina and
London, doubling the size of both offices to accommodate hiring efforts
at those locations.
